Default Re: I just got my butt kicked by the AI

I have found out the the most intense game is with small quadrant, 6 races, no neutrals, High AI dificulty and medium AI bonus. It gets nasty long before getting cloaking tech.
This works best with Proportions, in which an Empire can lose every single colony, but as long it retains its homeworld there is chance to turn back the tide. I have found the hard way how easily a Homeworld can become an Stalingrad....

What I did to keep the solo game fresh was to put as many races as I could in the TDM race directory. I had about 60 races at one time. By doing this, and using computer generated races, you are much more likely to get a different flavor with every game. It takes many games before you figure out all the races. Once you do, you are ready for PBW.[/QB]
I was doing the same thing before the demise of my old computer. Now I have to rebuild my library, although there is a possibility I can salvage the info from my old hard drive. Let's hope so. I really don't want to re-download everything. Heck, I still haven't had the chance to download TDM yet. When I'm not playing Proportions, I'm downloading other stuff. And most of it isn't SE4G right now. Too much info, not enough time (at least at home; can't download at work).
