Well, it's seems to me that the AI has a decent number of ships (Hard, low bonue). Those ships are just not very good (not enough refit maybe...by I am heavy on research...)
The main point, I think, is that the AI does not used them properly. Precisely, it does not :
- Attack with massive fleet (Concept of Schwerpunkt for the wargamers among you)
- Follow on on attack (maybe it is just honorable and graciously wait for an opponent to recover before delivering another blow
)
- Build enough fighters for its carriers
- Escape obvious attack by human player (Human player would withdraw to keep its force intact and wait for reinforcement)
Sorry if I seems like I am complaining, I am not ! I think it is still a very good game.
First time with Space Empire, hope Malfador will stand by its reputation.
