Am I the only one who is annoyed at the AI's placement of buildings after you conquer one of their planet? The never take advantage of special tiles (even on the higest diff levels), and don't seem to understand the importance of building farms. Generally, they build way too many political buildings, and with no extra populace, they're worthless. IMO, the AI would be much more competitive if they build more factories, less research buildings, but had better control over tax allocation to production/research. Generally, I have one or two tech planets (on large/huge), with my research slider to 50%, military 20%, and social 30%, and I can outresearch AI with planets that are almost all focused on research. Hrmm?
