I mainly reproach the wiki to be a collection of strategy guides that makes finding facts and mechanisms quite difficult. This page is a proposal of a reorganization of the AI War wiki's main page that would highlight facts and put strategy aside (not removed, but put at the end, after the facts).

Overview

AI War: Fleet Command is the flagship video game of Arcen Games, first released in 2009. Up to eight players battle a pair of rampant artificial intelligences once used by warring human superpowers, in the aftermath of the AI's near complete victory over humanity. Human players must avoid the notice of AI powers while preparing for an attack against the AI homeworlds. The game takes place on a procedurally generated galaxy map with between 10 and 120 planets in a genre splicing mix of Real-Time Strategy, 4X, and Tower Defense.

Game Setup

Objectives

Players can refer to in-game objective list (accessed through "Message Log") which is dynamically updated during play.

  • The AI: seemingly created by Humans during their civil war, the AI now seems preoccupied in another galaxy with grander design than Human's remains extermination.
  • Zenith: eons old alien race only represented by its technological remains and scattered beings.
  • Neinzul: insectoid aliens of eternal children with extremely short life span.
  • Spire: mineral alien specie whose empire sprawl many distant galaxies.
