Thanks, Deceiver: On a previous post, I requested that the next SOASE/Entrenchment patch include an option to toggle off AI surrender. Sometimes, he just gives up too darn easy. Not sure if this fits into what you're looking to put together, but if it does I'd sure appreciate you including it. HB

Darvin, OK, I understand. I would like for there to be a patch, of course, so I'm not obligated to buy Diplomacy just to get the AI's behavior fixed, but I'm glad that both you and Whirlwind have some pull to maybe help things along. We really enjoy the game, as it has so much to offer (and is different each time with random maps), but allowing us to turn off AI surrender would be the coup de grace.

Hi all, I've seen this topic posted before, but am wondering if anyone (including Stardock) has found a way to fix this. A friend and I were playing against the computer (2 humans, one AI) and each had basically conquered our own solar system (of 3 total). We had an advantage, but certainly not insurmountable for the AI since he had his own system, too (and since we're newbies). But when it was time to go smoke t
