Read ingame Pedia for Attack and AI
Glitch?: AI has massive unexplained attack bonus
On the following picture you see a ship with 2x Laser tier 1.
Pedia Attack: 10 x Race = 10 x Race = 14
Fleet Window Attack: 26
This applies to every ship in every system of that player.
Another AI player: Gysache. Also 2x Laser Tier 1.
Pedia Attack: 10 x Race = 6
Fleet Window Attack: 18
3 Battle Rounds 6x3 = 18? But how does this apply to the Ettin example?
My Ship: Chato. 4x Laser Tier 1.
Pedia Attack: 20 x Race = 20
Fleet Window Attack: 20
So I do not get the 3x multiplicator? I do not see the pattern here.

Re: Bonus Attack for AI
Base damage of Laser: 5
Bonus per tech upgrade: 2
=> Laser damage with Laser IV researched = 11
Gysache:
Bad pilots => -1 tech level => -2 => 9 Damage. 2 Lasers => 18 damage
Etty:
Good pilots => +1 tech level => +2 => 13 damage. 2 Lasers => 26 damage.
So no bugs or strange boni for the AI. Tooltip is indeed misleading though.

Re: Bonus Attack for AI
I'm guessing the Pedia tells you what you'd get if it were your ship, and you haven't researched the weapon refinement techs the AI has.
Refining your weapons is essential, it's a new feature for this release and replaces the old ship part upgrades, I hadn't before noticed what happens if the AI is ahead of you in that tech and you look up one of their ship designs.

Re: Bonus Attack for AI
Seems legit. Thank you!
It is misleading, since you do not see the technology tier.
Off topic: @MatGB: I am going for aggressive expansion and cloaked colonies. He cannot spot me, while I am expanding undisturbed. His fleet is superior, but I strike where he is undefendet. As soon, as I control the system, everything is cloaked and untouchable. I am experimenting at the moment. If you have ideas, go ahead. I keep my eyes open for bugs, glitches and misleading stuff.
PS: I just saw, that the levels for weapons were removed. Now I understand, why it does not match up...I saw the weapons and thought it was level 1. Would it have been more advanced, it would be written there, right? Well now I know.
