"Transcend is OWNABLE.
The AI is pretty stupid"

I agree.
How stupid is the AI?
My own top nominations are:
1. Failure to effectively use Airpower.
2. Failure to look beyond the immediate battle to the outcome of the war.
As I have just been re-instructed in the SP game I am now playing, once I get airpower, the AI is only hanging around for me to conquer it.
How much of the AI stupidity have I missed? Can you share examples? My own favorite is when I caused 20 some odd Hive aircraft to crash out of fuel, because the Hive failed to sacrifice one or two A/C to punch through a barrier I made.

P.S.
Has anyone noticed any AI practices, tactics, or strategies that they have found useful? If so, which ones?
