Fellow players, may I suggest these units are AI only?

I will leave that to you all. I will say that because the units are cost reduced (i.e. mineral reduced) that they are beneficial in a mineral deficient environment such as this. *

Define competitive! The AI's are competitive IMO. However my experience as a CMN is that in some instances humans are coming up with new ideas (or ideas I overlooked) that completely outfox my AI's, or else the human players completely guess wrong and are being butchered by my AI's. So pick your poison here!

Yes.

Anyways, once you all are satisfied with the game settings please let me know and I will then post the game.

* Note: regardless of persisting rumours, it cannot be proven that the AI's paid me to say this!

I've never actually used subs as they come so late in the game and because the AI can see all units anyway.

So I'm wondering: do sensor arrays spot subs?
If not, defending against those AI units could be problematic...


As far as I'm concerned the game sounds good btw.

fine by me.

Maniac, why are you against our using those 4-1-5 Subs?

Darsnan, seems you've taken care for everything we needed. Many thanks and let's get rolling!

Because it reduces the value of the techs that give deep pressure hulls and marine detachments. Also it's cost reduced, so you'll probably only see navies of that unit, instead of some variation.

The AI probe is meant AI only btw.
