Dose anyone know why?

Hi

The altarians seem to have insane logistics available to them in my current game, ive maxed out my logistics research and built hyperian logistics centre which give me a total logistic ability of 58,which is normal..

but the altarians seem to have 97 logistical points and therefore fielding huge fleets against me,one fleet had almost 20 or so warships a combination of large and medium hull ships compared to my 11 ships which were all medium hull.(never happened in my previous games when im at war with them)

I have advanced intel on them and they only have 1 hyperian logistics centre and i didnt modify the race abilities or anything. im playing ToA 2.03 immense map, challenging difficulty,on a normal scenario(i.e i'm not playing on the pre-map that gives you huge logistics)

im playing as terrans, the altarians  declared war on me due to that random event where the  minister for trade was assassinated by  radicals from my side or some thing like that..

i know they get extra ships from this random event but dose that random event give the race, who's minister gets killed a logistical ability bonus?or is it sonmething to with the altarian super ability?i know the altarian super ability gives altarians a better chance of convincing other races with a similar/same ethical alignment as them to go to war but dose it also improve logistics?

Any insight would be appreciated as to how this is a possible..very curious to know.Karma to those who know  :andrew:

 

Thanks.

Someone out there probably (no, definitely) knows more about the matter than I do, but here goes nothing.

 

I was playing a game as the Altarians the other day during which, after building a a Hyperion Logistics Center, I conquered an enemy planet which ALSO has a Hyperion logistics center which upped my maximum logistics capabilities. Have the Altarians you're playing against conquered any other worlds?


Also, could be a bug.

Galactic duck 1 makes sense. Have they gone to war with anyone else. The game doesn't tell you what other players planets are taken or assimilated by other players. Also the A.I. is really stupid, and is willing to trade almost anything. Maybe some of these things might of happened to the Altarians. Or maybe they got really lucky on random events. In actually between hulls and shrinkage. The computer never keeps up. Try ramming 109 attack and 109 defense against there ships it doesn't matter the logistics. They can't beat this My favorite weapons are missiles they are the strongest. In Dark Avatar the Korath at least attempted to counter this. In twilight the Korath doesn't. It sucks the fact is the A.I. doesn't counter this. Stardock needs to fix this. If you use phasors and the A.I. starts using shields, go to sparrows and start researching up or vise versa. If the altarians are using shields start using guns instead. If the altarians are using guns, stop using shields and start using armor. The weopon only counts depending on there defense or vice versa.
