Well for those of you who hate the easy AI there is actually a very good mod out there.I have been playing a few different mods and have noticed the AI is quite easy(and im a newb).Its the distant stars mod by Skyline_Hun.Normally as i said the AI is easy but i started a game with the above mod adn so far the AI seems pretty hard. Have 3 on hard in a huge random map. Only seen the first one so far(only on half an hour-hour).

But it has colonized far more planets then normal,about 7 at this stage.Its actual hard to keep up with the AI for once.So anyone who doesnt like the original AI this is a good mod.Also it has Uziis extra planets and planetary bonuses mod(my favourite one so far,wont play a mod without them lol.
