Also some others from the TDM Modpack.

Aquilaeian
Earth Alliance
United Flora
Toron
Xiati

Maybe not the best but certainly a challenge, When playing against an AI anyway http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

I've always found the Cephilopian (sp?) to be pretty tough. I always add them to my sp games. As far a stock AI's go, my enemy is the Krill. Nasty little buggers they are. Especially with mods using the Mini-Missle Mount.

My favorite and the most cunning of all TDM AI Players - is the Xiati.

When the Gold Version was released including the TDM, to avoid copyright problems some races were removed _like the Narn_, and then, the files moved to other race _like the Xiati_.

Question about Tessellate/Aquilaeian: someone playing against them had the opportunity to meet their Baseships? In my games/tests, those ships demonstrated to be fast to build and hard to defeat (although easy to hit, of course!).

Just recent with TDM 3.40 - I had one of the most memorable se4 games I have played and the race we mentioned was an ultimate challenge.

I have to say the toughest I have ever faced are the United Floral. They have handed what remains of my head to me on more than one occasion.
Long Live the United Floral!

Um, since I only use the Tesselate ship set, I have never faced Master B's AI. Rumor has he is the the best.

My second son was born the Last 9 of June... and nostalgically can remember the days when I was able to sleep 7 hours without being wakened with screams!
As example, Last night I slept from around 00:00 to 1:30. Then, from around 3:40 to 6:00, what in my case, is not enough to have a good day to do programs for the bank!

Also, seems to be that I will need to do a work trip at the end of August or early September. It was postponed many times... but I think this time the trip will be not moved anymore (somebody live in Aruba or Curacao?).

Probably I could run a new AI match in October (when my wife and sons will be in Colombia, visiting my wife's parents).

October is not that far off.

I just asked my wife if she wanted to go to Curacao - she said “sure, not when MB is there, however… All you guys would do is play your computer games in the sun".

Actually, it was not a half bad idea http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
