EEEvil Empire has arrived...and brought friends :)

[Alpha Kodiak]

Thanks for the Vikings update! I am going to be restarting anyway as I tweek my way through the Vandron AI.

I noticed something interesting about the Vikings. They build up their ship construction very fast, so that they are building battleships while my AI's are building light cruisers. However, because they have not yet researched point defence weapons, the battleships are getting beat up by the missile armed light cruisers. They are devestating against the races that don't use missiles, however.

Are you sure you talking about the Vikings? They use smaller ships for quite some time and are usually behind in ship construction. Also they research PD very early and use it on every design. What you described sounds more like the EEEvil to me .

EEEvil it is. Got to get more sleep!

Please substitute EEEvil Empire for Vikings in my previous post.

I have started a test game with those AI that have been updated to 1.49 (the ones that I know of).
The game is a medium mid-life without black holes, 3000pts, low tech/medium cost, medium (or was that low?) AI bonus, no random events, intel on.

I have attached the stats from turn 20 as a screenshot.

I am at war with the Orks and have a TA with Aquilaeian
Vikings: MA with Aquilaeian, war with Pyrochette
EEEvil: war with Aquilaeian
Orks: war with me
Aquilaeian: TA with me, MA with Vikings, war with EEEvil
Pyrochette: war with Vikings

PS: I have not posted the updated Space Viking AI, yet. If anybody is interested send me an email and I will get it to you ASAP.

Hmm, good question. I didn't know anybody was watching . I have started a new game with the new TDM races, so I am not sure if I'll continue with this one. I might, though, because I have actually played myself in this one rather than just hitting the end turn button under minister control .
