Any tips for beating this single player level. Two of the three AIs match me from the start and then crush me. Trying get them to focus on each other but not having any success.

Hey there!

Feeling blue can be tricky with bad fortune on the AI movement. Are you playing it for a gold star or just completion?

If for the latter, I suggest taking out AI 1 early, before he has the chance to grow too much, and picking up his bonuses in the meantime. Once you are up to a decent income I suggest cleaning up Australia and pushing out from there. You should be able to outgrow the other two AIs if you consume AI1 from within.

If you want a faster win, you have to focus more on keeping AI2 and 3's bonuses broken, sending one probe via your New Zealand spawn and one through north Australia to the other AIs to break their biggest bonuses as fast as possible and reaching the farthest territories faster. Worth keeping in mind here is that the AIs only turn aggressive towards you when they no longer have any neutrals to take.

Thanks. I will try that. Only looking for completion at this stage.

Heya, did you get it by now?
