Damn, damn, damn.. This is another manifistaion of horrible AI bug that affects Proportions' AI
here is a link to its desription:

I made my AIs very aggressive in expansion/population transfer. But it backfired because of SEIV bug Next time, either play simultaneous turns or take control of AI races for every other 10 turns.

Oleg,
I haven’t played out your Krill yet, But your Drushskies are VERY tough!!! As is!!!

Crystals are tough also; after they get there Point Defense Weapons on board!!!

Keep in Mind in Aloofi's game they may have a bad start!

Thanks, John

But I am still very mighty pissed of by this "population transfer" bug. Up to the point I play "turn based" SE no more. What is the point if your latest and best ever AI becomes a laughing stck of a galaxy with all loaded colony ships sitting arond homeworld for years and years !???

Me too, but as a cortesy to vast majority of SE players I'm obliged to check AI in "turn-based" mode. This is how I get to this bug I never knew about.. !

Sorry, but was the diference between Turn Based and simultaneous?
Is it there tactical combat in simultaneous?
Is it better?
Is the AI better?

I love turn based, so i haven't tried the simultaneous. Sounds like RTS...
