Hi!

I actually play nowadays only vs AI.

Don't. You'll pick some bad habits that could cost you a game when you'll play in a PBEM game.

To make myself more clear: I'm currently playing a small normal game as a 3-immune 7% PGR AR versus 3 allied AIs: AR, HE and SS. Despite HE has 3 times my resouces, 21 more tech levels (has met 3 tech-giving MTs, me none - its known tech levels are weap-20 (me 16), prop-20 (me 14), bio-10 (me 7)), I'm wiping the floor with it using just simple jihad CCs, that are on the battlefield for more than 30 turns. Now, when HE started fielding speed 2.25, armored (2500 DP armor) MetaMorphs with 8 MiniBlasters those 20 CCs don't have enough FP to kill them fast enough, so I started building jugg BBs. By my experience with AI that's the last design I'll need to field.

For a comparisson: with live players those jihad CCs would have a lifespan of ~5 turns, then they'd become obsolete by jihad BBs, whose would go to pension just ~10 turns after they'd be built.

My piece of advice: if you EVER intend to go on-line, play against AI as you'd play against live players. That will save you a lot of frustration.

BR, Iztok
