  • Final Frontier - Stealth ships and the AI..

    I just finished my first game of Final Frontier, and overall was very impressed.
    The main problem however was the AI (Prince Level) was pretty rubbish at thwarting my 3-4 stealth ships, which caused absolute havoc for the entire game.
    The AI did nothing to attempt to stop them. I didn't see any scouts (the only unit that can see them?).
    Not once did the AI use stealth ships against me.
    Overall it was a very easy victory via ascendancy.
    Other than that it was excellent.. but it's quite a big flaw in the AI imo.

    Added:
    The AI also often moved construction ships to rebuild warp lanes I had literally just destroyed the turn before with a stealth ship.. this is obviously committing suicide.

    Seems strange they spent so much time on the rules, graphics, etc but bombed out on the AI. I guess they wanted flashy press screenshots.

      I was certainly mesmerized by the pretty planets revolving around and around. They really did pull out all the stops on the graphics.

      On the other hand, I really think that the Civilopedia for Final Frontier was lacking--for one thing, there were no descriptions for the various spatial features (black holes, radiation clouds, etc.). For example, I was only able to find out that black holes suck you in by blundering into one.
      Those who live by the sword...get shot by those who live by the gun.
