Currently playing a gigantic map with everything set to random, 6 other races, on normal conditions, and I am playing as Human. The other races are the Thallian...Yor...Korx...Altarian...Drengii...and the Drath. From the very begining I noticed that the other races seemed to be acting odd. The case in point as follows.
1)Thallian are VERY agressive and attacking everybody...and winning more often than not.
2) Yor are not just isolationist...they kill any ship that enters their space.
3) Korx refuse to trade with anyone except when they want something and then they are very demanding.
4) Altarians are planet jumping in and out of other players areas, spreading hate and discontent.
5) Drengii are acting more like the peacekeepers/Krynn than anything else
6) Drath are so wishy-washy then bow to whoever has the biggest fleet close to their planets.
Now the map is populated by an over-abundence of planets with average PQ around 16, mega amounts of anomolies, literally tons of rescources, and better than 70% of stars have asteroid fields.
Now throw in the following megaevents starting in year 2, in order, Plague event, year 3 Dread Lords, year 4 Pirates, and year 5 Jagged knife.
It would appear that I have hit the oddest mix of events actions possible...makes for a very difficult game to say the least.
Has anyone else ever run into this kind of stuff before?
