Why game is so easy?

And even against human players the game can be quite easy, or so I reckon. Asmala and Rex? Is the game really too easy for you when you play humans?

on the contrary. the truth, if ignored, gets really angry and finds a two-by-four...

I'm going to add this to my email sig.

I have tried TDM mode - the same things. AI send sips on my planet (with 10 Weapon Station) one by one (or 2-3 by 2-3). It is very silly. How I can change it (to force AI to create a big fleet)?

THanks

it was partly inspired by a sig i saw somewhere else. 'history doesn't repeat itself, it just let's fly with a hammer and screams 'didn't you hear me the first time!?'.

Excactly which AI is that (and what setup are you using) ?

There is a vast difference in the quality of the AI's. Some are very stupid, others just a bit daft

. Make sure you pick some decent ones (using latest Versions and patches) and give them a bonus. If it's still easy for you with High bonus, then you are ready for the big league (KOTH on PBW)

What game settings are you using?
What AI's are involved?
Are you playing a simultaneous game?

It does happen sometimes even with best AIs - when AI homeworld is very close and it has no bonuses. AI in the "attack" state does not wait for the correct number of "turns before next attack" and send understrength fleets.

But it seldom occurs with TDM AIs on high bonuses.
