Looking at the AI formation, it is one with multiple Zeus'. Each Zeus grants HPs to all units in the Army. This combined with constant spending on HP and Damage tech would lead to exactly what you are seeing. To counter that, you might want to take a Prometheus based battle group with a few Nemesis as well as keeping up with tech spending. Having looked over Frogboy's shoulders while playing, I will say that the AI spends less on tech than Brad does.

As Sid always said, a decision you always make the same way isn't a decision and games are about making interesting decisions. (Okay, that is loosely paraphrasing something Sid may or may not have said. I don't really remember exactly, he had so many game design tips. It's in the spirit of what he would have said had I asked him). In any case, if logistics is always the first thing that you purchase (and the main reason you always start a research building

The AI hasn't been adjusted to account for high VP (or To The Death) games. They are still operating on the assumption that VP sites are always the highest priority in the game.

As was pointed out by eviator, if the other player has 3/4 of the nodes, they will very likely win. No matter what they choose to build, they will have 3 times the economy of you and will eventually just out produce you. Don't let them get that much of the map.

[quote who="chemie99" reply="30" id="3601414"] PLus the AI seems to ignore or defeat this and have runs run past you anyway (including capital ships) [/quote] Sorry, this is just plain not true. The AI uses the EXACT same rules for movement as the human players do.

Reply to Meta-Unit Bugs & Questions in Ashes of the Singularity Founders AshesoftheSingularity Forums

What is the Area Control Dread Good For? Healing and invulnerability. How do Individual Unit Upgrades to Meta-Units Work? Yes, each squad contributes and the bonuses do stack, but some have diminishing returns. A metaunit (army) can only have one dreadnought in it. If you have more than one dreadnought, you have multiple armies. An army and a control group are completely different ani

[quote]My take is that you should not see what player starts where. It is a fun part of this kind of game to find out out who your neighbour is. It would also fun to be exploring and coming across the borders of the opposition and finding for yourself where they are and what nodes they have captured of if a node has changed hands since you last went past. Frogboy has said elsewhere that at the moment the game feels like you get everything too quickly. Well I think this is also part of t
