Hello everyone as the title says theres something odd going on with my game of ROTS.

My love of chaos, evil, suffering and just good old plain destruction. Caused me to start a game with a highly aggressive setting. All the war, all the killing and all the glorious murder(Think of a world destroyer

) is highly amusing.

However something odd is going on. I'm the Human race(Terran Empire) and I have a mutual defense pact with the Grand Kiadian Alliance made up of you guessed it "big headed ugly people"(as I call them) aka Kiadians. I alsoly have a +98 rep with them. But for some reason we are kicking the living hell out of eachother for no good reason throughout the map. You whould think we're are war with eachother with all this chaos.

At this rate we will be in a state of war within a month or two. I whould like to avoid war with them considering they have 106 planets with a great deal of both of our empires right next/within eachother. As far as I can tell we have no planets or mining stations within each others boarders but even if we did it whouldn't make sense for all the attacks.

In away its kind of amusing considering that the bad guys didn't even show up yet and everyone is ripping eachothers heads off(we probably scared them away!!).

Maybe they have a spy in deep cover in your empire that intercepted the communique in which
you called them "big headed ugly people" for the first time? That to me is like slappin' their
mama! Their egos could be as "big" as their heads you know! Just a thought.

Are your freighters being escorted and possibly firing on some of their freighters if armed?
Just another thought.

Impossable! we feed there spys mexican style refried beans so we can hear there "attempted infiltration" a mile away! This alsoly makes it conveniently easyer to throw them in prison sence public polluting is crime.

As far as I can see its only military ships doing the fighting. Any freighters just pass right by. Mining stations are alsoly being attacked by both sides. Spaceports as I see are left alone atlest they have been so far. As far as escorts go they do seem to join fights if one is gonig on but so far havn't seem an escort start a fight yet.

I have the same issues, and I'm pretty sure it starts when one of your auto ships goes into one of their systems, and they fire on your ship to 'defend' the system. Not sure what causes them to decide to fire on you, but something weird is going on there.

You reckon Julian Assange's decendant is in the game?

Just to be on the safe side I blow up 70% of the planets in the game. That should teach him!

Some players dont equip their private sector ships with weapons because it can tick off the AI. This and close borders might be sparking the conflict... (are they coveting your systems? what is your relations? a diplo-screen screenshot would help)

please upload this save somewhere, and post into the tech support forum, and they will look at it
