Ai intelligence and maps

Hi,

Could someone please tell me if there is a correlation between the AI you select and the map size of the game? I've found that the Ai is not as aggressive on smaller maps as on the larger / huge maps. Am I mistaken?

Not that I'm aware of. The AI does over prioritize range over speed and thus may seem to spread out very fast on larger maps and on small maps well range is nearly useless on maps below medium. Try a painful AI on the Duel map, the AI is quite aggressive.

True, I've played duel, medium and gigantic, and it does seem they go for range (at least on intelligent). The drengin crushed me on duel, almost had me but got wiped out by a fleet of Nano-Ripper ships they weren't expecting on medium, and about halfway though Gigantic I could take any free planets with ease, as I was so much faster than them. Other than that, I don't think it changes.
