AIP determines New Reinforcements- Every so often, the AI gets reinforcements determined by a formula that involves Difficulty of AI, AIP. As AIP gets higher, it gets proportionately more reinforcements. When these reinforcements get too high, the AI releases waves, CPA's, and the like.
 
−
 
 
−
AIP determines Tech Levels- As certain thresholds of AIP are crossed, the tech-level of all reinforcements gets bumped up by a level. This can make fights you were winning a draw or a complete loss, this also forces you to spend knowledge just to keep up to the AI's level.

−
AIP means more at higher difficulties- The AIP reinforcement formula gets much more fierce at higher difficulty levels, especially at Diff 10. So just keep this mind if you play at higher difficulties that the same amount of AIP in a Diff 7 is much deadlier in a Diff 8, 9 , and 10 game.

Revision as of 08:48, 15 August 2016

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).

Game Setup

Objectives

Economy

Ship mechanisms

(the subtopics wouldn't be linked from the front page, they're just ideas for chapters in main pages)

  • Cap and Mark
  • Attack
    • ammunition types and immunity (old page)
    • attack multiplier (hull bonus)
    • armor (also armor piercing, etc) (old page and... wtf? this)
    • area of effect
  • Health
    • repair
    • self attrition
    • self damage
    • regeneration
    • vampirism
  • Hull Types [REVAMP]
  • speed
    • speed boost
    • gravity effect
    • engine damage
    • paralysis
    • teleport
  • cloaking
  • range
    • radar dampening
    • close-combat
    • retreat range
  • reclamation
  • scouting
  • swallow
  • boosts (?) (attack, speed, armor, ...)
  • (mobile) shield (?) (sh.bearer, riot control, ...)
  • capturable / captured on planet ownership change
  • Immunities [TODO]
