*shrug* You can hate me if you want - the fact of the matter is that I've played several games now where even by mid-game, the AI players have colonized everything that exists. Indeed, they'll colonize the better places first, but this hasn't stopped them from also colonizing Antarctica and the Saraha (that is, their Random Map equivalents) and utilizing considerable resources in order to make such cities effective. Presumably, this forum is for sharing experiences in order to continue the construction of this mod. Here's my experience. Take it or leave it.
