Summary0015479: mime uses human raid starships in reprisal wave..
Descriptionshort version:
2 concerns that may be issues:
1) title line, mime uses human raid starships in a reprisal wave instead of ai ones
2) why is the ai countering with reprisals containing 2-3 times as many ships as where lost to it?

so I sent out my raiders to take care of some data centers.. pretty standard stuff. they got the target but didn't make it out alive, still nothing new.
I was shocked when the reprisal wave from my 3 mk1 raiders registered: 0 ships and 9 ai1 starships.

when it arrived it was all [b]human[/b] raid starships, except for a singular flagship. The flagship was not accounted for in the warning message.

I am playing on difficulty 7. why is it when I lose 5 mk1 raid starships (I believe only 3 of them counted towards this wave) the ai counters with 9 in the reprisal wave? I believe there may be some form of miscalculation going on here if it's getting more ships in a salvaged wave than where lost to generate it.

AI progress was 96 when this reprisal was triggered, if that matters.

It will use AI-version raids in 7.043, thanks :)

On the quantity, it is intentional that the mime can get a lower or higher quantity of the different ship types you've lost that went towards that reprisal wave. What mime does is change the type of ships. The overall strength of the reprisal is still dependent on difficulty, whether it's an Overreactive AI, etc.
