Summary0023911: Praetorian Guard abandoned AI Overlord
DescriptionI was attacking with overwhelming force (if you include the Nanocaust and Scourge support) so they would have been annihilated anyway. It's still very strange how they decided they'd rather defend a dead-end planet (Westerland) than the sole object they are supposed to protect. They decided to do this right as I was clearing the only planet with a connection to the AI Overlord, and most of them still died trying to go the backwater dead-end (the attached save is right after this happened). They can't go around my forces to hurt me anywhere, because I already had a high level military planet blocking the only way into the AIs last few planets.

If all is lost the least they could do is valiantly die trying to stop me, instead of being completely useless. There don't seem to be more than 10 Praetorian Guard units on the AI Homeworld, and the rest is away in hiding. I have noticed this happening in a lot of my games before this, where the Praetorian Guard just goes somewhere else to hide right before I assault the Overlords planet, but this is the worst I have seen so far because at least in those games they came back to try and help.
