For the love of god, no real time!!! This whole RTS fad is ruining the strategy game genre. A strat game is about planning and strategy and lends itself perfectly to the turn based format. All of the RTS games (including AoE and AoK, which I have and played for a while) degenerate into a contest of "who can move their mouse faster" and not strategy. Turning this game into a RTS format would be a tragic mistake.

Along with the Civil War i'd like to be able to play with more than 20 races at a time. At least give me the option to so I can play with all of the great custom races in one big game.

I would like to see the AI build troops, and use them to invade their enemies and defend their planets. I have yet to see it do either at this point.

I think any of the Intell operations should be able to happen as a random event. That way you aren't sure if another player is messing with you...

I am not sure what you would like to have. But if you insert in the Construction Vehicles file "attack base" as item the AI will build attack baseships (if he has the tech level researched for baseships of course). Even the Default AI Construction Vehicles file in the TDM-ModPack has this but only in the "Infrastructure" AI state as item 22.
Does this help you?
