I hope not hahaha, I never let the AI's get to the point where its feasible, I either keep it so their economy is taxed fighting me or whipe them out. I could see Unfair's doing it if you let them though.

shhh dont give the pirates ideas

Doesn't seem like it.  My friend and I regularly play against unfair AIs, and I've never seen an AI superweapon.

Played 5v5 9-Vicious and me just so my team AI's get me through development phase never seen them use super weapons.

AI's don't use super weapons. And if they did they should be time locked.

Vicious AI gets 50 cred ps at start and they max their fleet in about 15 min every time.

So they could get their super weapon very quick while most players still develop their economy.

Ai's are strong but with super weapons they would be way TO TOUGH for most players - I think

PS I once beat 1v1 vicious and only on one of pre-made maps where home planets are 1 jump away. Had to try 3 times before AI was finally beaten. I've read JJ beat one but he's one of best if not the best on SINS and i don't know if he had random map... but he said it was hard so... with super weapons
