Sins of a Galactic Empire Mod Question

[Inspector]

In the beginning when Im am playing a game with AI, I see the AI already has a mass fleet when it was only like 5 minutes. The AI is on normal btw. Is there something Im not seeing here with the AI difficulty?

Screenshot, if he has 13 frigates and a capital thats normal. Frigates are easy to build first capital is free.

The Sins of a Galactic Empire AI gets a lot of extra bonuses. Possibly including free ships. And unfortunately, us modders cannot tie in our "AI Hacks" to the difficulty level. So any mod that extensively boosts its AI like SoGE will disproportinately hurt newer players.

If you're still newish to Sins I would try getting some more practice on Vanilla before switching to SoGE. Or you can try one of the other Star Wars mods, like Interregnum. In fact any mod would probably be an improvement; SoGE probably has the toughest AI of any mod.

For SoGE do you have to be like a well experienced player in order to stand a chance against the AI?

I haven't tried it on easiest. But again, the mod gives lots of bonuses to the AI that aren't from the normal difficulty setting. These extra bonuses are the same on easy as they are on unfair+. You certainly should not be playing this mod as your first game in Sins because of this.
