Drath AI not building military

Anybody else noticed that Drath AI is not so hot on building military? They were my main opponent in my last game but they hardly builded any ships. They only begun building up at the very last moment after my attack. Basicly their planets were not defended at all and it was way too easy to beat them.

This is with the latest DA beta 2B.

I haven't noticed that yet. What difficulty were you playing at? There was a bug in DL a while back where certain AI's intelligence were way below the average set. I've noticed some of those old bugs have crept back in to DA, maybe that could be it.

I have noticed in the logs that one of my minor races keeps encountering an error: they can't build any more ships (freighter) because they've run out of room in their starport. Apparently, they are not recognizing they need to remove some ships to make room for new ones.

Ive noticed that this is happening to a lot of the civs. They are so busy researching planetary colonization techs that they research no weapon techs at all. I have had two civs already surrender to other civs because they have no military tech at all and another civ declares war on them from across the galaxy. (check out the surrender monkey thread).

Scincerely,

I always play on all civs @ Tough difficulty.
