I know the HE and AR AIs are considered the 'least weak' of the AIs, but they both spam tiny colonies everywhere, unlike most human players...

I want to run a couple of testbeds with a couple of races that play very differently to any I've played before, and need to get a clear picture of how much territory I can expect to stake out and how fast I'll need to expand to do so.

So, which AIs don't just spam colonisers across the whole map, but still do expand reasonably? I'm not after a fair fight from the AIs, just an idea of when and how far out I'm likely to encounter opposition in a real game.

Use the CA AI (Rototills) with an expert setting.

Though we often ask how and why, we must also do to get the answers to the questions.
