I see what you mean. But the problem isn't the number of races - it's the number of their IQ.

Victory conditions:
"Quadrant is completly at peace..."

...is underestimated by the computer. In my oppinion, the AI is too aggessive - like a mindless barbarian. It's not like I'm complaining about the difficulty - I could have beaten the game if I ever finished one.

If you ask me:
"The AI doesn't know when to stop!"

So Lucanos do you think that there should be no limit to the number of races? I mean sure everyone wants the AI improved, and I agree that the AI should be more peaceful and not always go to a murderous state with you. I'm sure this will all be corrected in some upcoming patch. But do you think the no limit on # of races should be implemented.
