Hi,

First off, you guys are great. The TDM races are terrific.

Two important observations I've made:

1) It doesn't seem any of the races build anywhere near enough baseships in the later stages of games. I'm running roughshod over AI fleets because I have a lot of baseships. I believe some of the races don't even have pictures for baseships, though I haven't looked at them in a while.

2) Some of the races build waves and waves of fighters on their planets, but unfortunately they are loaded out with Ground Cannon. This makes them really weak against planet-invasion fleets.
Two races I clearly remember doing this are the Praetorian and the Jraenar. Maybe some other races also do this.

It would be really great if you guys could address these issues.

Thanks for all you've done so far.
Thanks!
About the BA, well, I think currently the only AI for the stock game that use BA, are the Tessellate (I'm ashamed).
I will include BA for the Aquilaeian, but I'm not sure about the Pyrochette...
Anyway, still never received any input, about how the Tessellate's BA performed playing against humans... my experience testing them with other AIs, was that the crystalline armor is very good (and cheap!) using it in massive numbers.
