There's a thread over on
www.ina-community.com that deals with this. I haven't read the latest 2 (!) additional pages of comments since last night, but overall it's been extremely constructive and is actually solving the aggressiveness problem to some degree. Lord Orion, in particular, was killed a couple times
by turn 70 and he wasn't trying to get killed, after he made the changes. I've since made changes to my own files, last night, but I haven't gotten a chance to test them (looking for a little less aggressiveness.)
The thread is here:

And Lord Orion's current militaryAI.txt is posted too, on the second page:

The thing that everyone has confirmed, Ankh, is that the AI prioritizes it's wars. If you have no troops, and any other empire in the galaxy is potentially threatening and has ships, than you will get almost no attention if anything.
Will post results from my trials tonight - but I expect the AI to attack me based upon the changes I made (I also slowed down research and reduced HFOG on AI, as they don't know how to avoid it, but those are different files. Also, increased potential task force sizes available to everyone.)
