He also doesn't have any the recent improvements, tweaks, new content, or bug fixes... It's a choice he's free to make.

I also don't like to upgrade just as I'm reaching my first ever end-game -not a good time to have to learn a new set of tactics!  :)

I'm on 3.0.6 I believe, so I'm only two (non beta) updates behind, and those were released almost on top of each other so I shouldn't be missing too much in the way of new content.

Well, actually 3.060 was two months before 3.120, which is forever in AI War terms, but it's still no big thing. Definitely good to clench the victory first and then go for the new updates when you're ready. :)

Generally speaking it's good to have a lot of stuff to hit the tractors, or else some really long-range stuff (like Zenith Bombards) to take them out without getting sucked into them.
ok let say you bonus ship is an cloaked one.
you go in and only shoot when it close then it gets destroyed but what about your 100 something ships caught. simply solution you low power em and they stop shooting and revealing them self so they stay stuck hope this helps in future>?
AI War - even the smallest units can make all the difference no matter how weak they are still quite capable of taking the hits. if it can Kill and receive damage then it worth its time other wise if it cant kill and cant take the damage for the higher surviving ships then it is worthless.
