Summary0001349: More AI-Alien hybrid ships
DescriptionI really enjoy how the AI has used the Neinzul in such a way to make the AI-Neinzul Hybrid Hives, but I would think that the AI would have gone a step further and try to do this kind of thing with the Zenith and Spire technology as well.

Zenith: the AI has rebuilt the Golems it has found and made some 'improvements' where it could, but not having expertise with the arcane technology it has also degraded it. These Golem-hybrids are self attritioning like they way they used to be for the player and are non-reparable. This makes them mainly good for one thing: offense.

Spire: with the resent discovery of Spire-tech the AI is using it to upgrade its facilities using the Spire Hybrid Moderator. It goes around the AI planets and calculates how the threatening humans might breach the planets defenses [by calculate I mean it will actually be at random] and reinforce those defenses in some way. It will mostly try to reinforce border planets and planets of value. It could make turrets, issue a reinforcement of the entire planet, build special buildings like new guard posts, and maybe decide that the whole planet is flawed, release all the ships guarding it, and make new guards. The ship will also be equipped with a force field and a engine damage weapon.

Do they need have modules? Not really, but they could.
Do they need experience like the AI-Neinzul Hybrid Hives? No, especially the Zenith one, but they could.
Do they need to be a AI plot? I think they should.
Do they need to be like this? No, this is just one of my ideas. ;)

I think it's a really cool idea, but out of scope for the moment.
