At What AI Progress Does The AI Tech Level Increase?

A: The AI will go up a tech level on the following AI Progress schedule:

  • Mark II: 300 - ( 10 x Difficulty of AI Player )
  • Mark III: 800 - ( 10 x Difficulty of AI Player )
  • Mark IV: 1200 - ( 10 x Difficulty of AI Player )

So, for example, when playing against a level 5 AI the AI would tech up as follows:

  • Mark II at AI Progress 250 (300 - 50)
  • Mark III at AI Progress 750 (800 - 50)
  • Mark IV at AI Progress 1150 (1200 - 50)

What Does The Roman Numeral In Parentheses Next To The AI Progress Mean?

A: That roman numeral is the tech level that the AI uses for attacking you with its waves, as well as the minimum tech level it will use to reinforce its own planets. Higher-level planets (III, IV, and V on the map) will already get higher-level units for their reinforcements. Lower-level planets will not start getting higher-level techs reinforcements until the AI Progress increases past a certain point (see above).

In games with a Technologist AI Type, the Tech Level of the AI will be higher right from the start (that is part of the personality of those AI types). Also, when playing against some of the very high level AI difficulties, they generally start with Mark II ships instead of Mark I.

If there are two numerals shown instead of one, that means that the two AI players are using different tech levels at present. This can happen if the AI players have different difficulty levels set, or if only one of the AI players is technologist, etc (Having one AI player as a technologist does NOT impart the higher tech to the second AI player).
