I just bought the game from this site, it's the Collector's Edition. I took the digital download option. Where can I download the extras ? It's supposedly at sinsofasolarempire.com, but I've browsed the site and couldn't find them.
I was playing a 3vs3vs3vs1 on a large map the other day, and while I was busy destroying the main fleet of of the AIs, the "You win" screen appeared brutally in my face. Well, yeah, I won! But why ? I've searched the manual.pdf file that comes with the game, and the word "win" cannot be found inside. "victory" yields one result, doesn't answer the question. What are the victory conditions in Sins ? Thanks.
Ok did the 2vs2 again, this time I rolled all over the enemy AIs! However I think I forgot to check team locked, so my ally turned against me at the end. And he had about twice the fleet I had. Oh well.
Thanks for the tips. Re-tried a 2vs2 on hard. I played a better early game, but at some point the red guys had made like 50 cobalt frigates and 2 capital ships + 10 javelins so my proud army of 10 LF + Akkan + 3 carriers + 10 LRMs went down pretty quickly. I tried as the guide explained, to make very well defended choke points, but I just don't get time for that. Trade ports, yes, but they're damn expensive ! With 700 credits I can buy almost 3 LRMs. Also, pirates can attack anywhere
Ok I will have plethora of noobie questions having read that article you linked to : When he says "build taxes", he means upgrade civilian infrastructure right ? At the beginning, buy 200 crystals, for what ? A light frigate is, for instance, the Cobalt Light Frigate, not the Javelin, right ? When he says "create a fleet out of [your capital ship]", what does that mean ? Capital ships can create fleets ? What are "escape facilities" ?</li
Hello, I'm currently trying out the demo of Sins of a Solar Empire. I read the manual, did the tutorials and yesterday I won a 1vs1 on Normal, on the first map, Balance of Power I think. It was way too easy. Each time I got my fleet to a planet, the AI fled because he had less forces. So there was never a single difficult battle during the game and I won almost with my eyes closed. I was never attacked by the pirates. I didn't have to research any technology aside from 1 or 2 points for incre
