My Interdiction single player AI (named Toaster) has been coming along slowly. It’s still very far from the unbeatable cylon I want it to be, but it at least tries to defend itself by intercepting the player and attempting to build up its own lines.

However, it’s technically possible for a player to get enough points to win the match even if they aren’t the ones to finish the game with five in a row.
