AIC Mod in finite vs. infinite resource settings

many AIs like to use fighters en mass and research them quickly. Small ships with missiles can not have much of PD and will be chewed up with small if any damage to enemy. Well, it normally happens to my ships

A few low cost escorts with point defence will remedy this. Unless you are talking about taking out an AI Players home world or large colony early, then ye I would research fighters like the AI did and launch them on small transports. Nevermind that is not enough, it takes a lot to glass the AI home world.
But it will help at early warp point defences

When playing against the AI at low AI bonus I can easily out research all of them (maybe not the eee but they tend to be freindly) even when i dont take any start options I usually win.
