In the game setup screens if you look at each races abilities screen I find that the races have the following unallocated points:-

Thalen -2
Iconians - 4
Drath - 3
Korx - 0
Yor - 3
Terrans - 3
Drengin - 1
Altarians - 5
Arceans - 1
Torians - 4

I seem to recall something in the forums regarding this along time ago. When playing does the AI randomly select other abilities for the races or are they still unallocated?

If the remaining points are NOT allocated by the AI player this would put it at a considerable disadvantage.
