Request: additional AI difficulty level

Crippling I can beat quite easily when the AIs are "Genius".

With tech trading off, at the very next level (masochistic) when the AIs are "Incredible" I usually fail badly.

The manual reports the AI gets 200% econ bonus at incredible and 125% at Genius. If correct, I feel this is too big a jump. How about a halfway house for anybody like me who can't bridge the enormous gap?

Or you may want to change the settings a bit, instead of common planets how about occasional? Instead of large, go to huge and uncommon settings and random AI intelligence... mix it up a bit.

From what I have been seeing folks get into a "rut" with their game settings. Imagine if Stardock was like that...

I always have random for all my game settings, with the exception of tech speed, which I normally put on slow, very slow or occasionally normal.

Randomize intelligence might be worth a go I suppose, though I suspect I'll come across exactly the same problem.
