I've been playing a massive game, first time through. I've been hammering my AI opponents (primarily the Yor since they were the largest opponent once war started) and, shortly after I researched technologies to make my fleets more effective I noted that the Yor began defending their planets one ship at a time. When my fleet would attack a defended planet in the past, all of their ships would defend together as a single fleet, whether they had the technology for that or not I suppose - now I can only engage 1 at a time in the battle viewer. I was wondering if that is intentional or a glitch? Is there something wrong, or is there a command that a defending planet's owner can use to limit the engagement to 1 defending ship at a time (the movement cost then slows my advance tremendously - as well as being very irritating). If anyone knows the answer that would be great. Thanks. My user name is kellywhiting.
