So is this going to be a permanat thing? I was about to dock with a planet when 2 linonheads 1 following right behind the other fired some lazer into the planat and destroyed it lol. Buildings, infantry, the works all gone.
Why in the world is this a "part" of the game? It seems a bit strange since there is nothing to save the planat until its to late of course.

Take out the lionheads then.
You only need to hull them to abt 60 or so and they'll turn tail and run. Set your Elites on them and join in the fun fun fun!

It's because people kept complaining that MI were too easy and they wanted to see them act like they're described as death machines.

Consider this: Do you really think the ais are smart enough to bomb with even just a few defenses? Also, does not the MI tendancy for being epically OP compared to equivalent stock human ships warrant this kind of superweapon? Without the "death beam" the MI would have little hope of destroying the structures on planets, and thus could only effectively change territory through spamming ais at a planet.
It also lets them harass players. >:D

It'll be different after the new AI are done and we get some sort of event system sorted. Until that time, they'll remain as is.

I wouldn't care about fighting them, but having no warning about your planat coming under attack until they have already taken out everything is why i made this thread.
Fighting AI is part of the game but... AI who you would have to watch 24/7 is a bit of a strech. Espesially since there are times when "no one" is online for a paticular faciton & can counter them.
