I know that ES2 is coming out "soon", but can developers please improve AI in ES1.

It seems like AI does not adapt to enemy fleets. In my game AI military power is around 20 times higher (AI also ahead in everything else... ) yet poor thing cant even kill single ship of my even in 1 vs 12+ situation. I holded AI with just 6 ships and made AI surrender giving me like 7 star systems almost doubling my empire.



After some time we get back to war yet AI still spams ships with Beam weapons and almost no Flak defense over and over against my small fleet of ships with prioritized Shields and Missiles +Fighter/Bombers leading to the outcome when I just get free XP on ships making them even stronger.



Also it seems to me that fleet "Military power" doesn't include values like armor, HP or other modules. Making falls impression of fleet power. I mean when fleet with 37k power can't even leave a dent on single ship of 4k but takes loses instead there is clearly something wrong.

Military Power does include things like armor, they're not gonna make an AI overhaul now seriously never gonna happen I don't know how you have any expectations for that to happen in a million years and try a higher difficulty level.
