I just realized.. The Core AI doesn't actually send Mark V Starships.. it always sends Mark IVs at most. Or maybe it starts sending MarkVs when AIP gets higher.. haven't tried that.

I'm scared by Speed Racer/Golemite and Speed Racer/Crafty Spire, personally.

Or Speed Racer/Spire Hammer. Speed Boosted Spire Frigates, Cruisers, etc? Bad news.
I can already tell this is going to be a roller coaster ride of disappointment.

Vicious Exotic/Mad Bomber.

Minute 8, my HW enjoyed a (brief) visit from an AI Artillery Golem.  About 20 seconds later, it left - its work there was done.

Hang on, do AI type multipliers to attack sizes transfer to multipliers to Exo "budget" if the exotic flag for that AI hybrid type is on?

Yup.  If you look in the logs, you'll see that the Exotic types first have an entry in the normal Wave log file, then it translates it to Exo-budget for generation in the EventAttackPopulation log file.  'Tis nasty.

Ehm...how do you switch this Dual AI thingy on?

I admit that I might have overlooked some important details.

Turn on Vengeance of the Machine and add a secondary AI. If you're not in the alpha you probably don't have VotM yet.

You can actually get it through our store or the Indie Royale bundle right now.  It's basically a public beta now :)
