I did a test game with the AI Improvement Mod aimed at checking out the Return of the Shakturi.

Unfortunately the game did NOT apply the massively upgraded Shakturi Ship and Base Design Templates that I've developed.

They are now at a relative disadvantage to the other races which will often have larger ships and most Wonders should be built.

The game was on Very Cheap research so I could get to this scenario quickly. Frankly, the Shakturi got hammered by normal empires.

Here is an example

I had also upgraded the Ancient Guardians the idea being to lead to the most epic battles possible in the game. These upgrades worked but obviously create imbalance without similar upgrades to the Shakturi.

I checked the Modding Guide and there is no mention that this cannot be done for the Shakturi in which case it's a Bug.

Could you assist?

I too have found this problem, my shakturi are beeing annihilated by large ai empires throwing unlimited fleets at them 15x15 1400 map.

There has been no response to this bug since it was reported on July 26th. Please advise.

Do you have a save file for this that we can investigate? We can't duplicate this here.

Erik, did you play with the AI Improvement Mod (or something else where the Shakturi designs are massively changed) then initiate the Return of the Shakturi storyline event i.e. via the Refugees? Did you then get Size 650 Escorts as per the design templates?
