So after beating 3-4 games of normal AI in regular sins, I just tried Entrenchment. I started with 3 normal AI. 1 of the normal AI got beated without even me attacking him. Now I control a bit more than the third of the solar system and the other two the rest. I find entrenchment a bit easier. Did not tried the pirates at all, neither in sins BTW (turned them off after 2 5 minutes games...)But I'm pretty sure I could handle them easily now.</p

Thanks again guys, Well, I noticed that the Kol Battleship is pretty strong but for a short period of time only, specially if I let the Kol auto-cast his ability... Yeah, for the Korul devastator I found that the Dunov was of some help. I read that the Dunov is considered the weakest capital ship of the game ? His shield recharge was actually pretty usefull to me after I got 2-3 capital ship.
I won my game and beated the three cpu. Now I started a new one on a medium random with 4 players and switched 2 of the 3 AI to normal, and I'm testing the advent at the same time, now that I'm good with the TEC. I really like their capital ships, hope the others capital ships will be fun. I like the one for bombing planet, his multiple missiles ultimate is awesome :D I'm getting better, beating the easy cpu has become too easy. :D
Ok now I thought I was winning my game but it take a longer time than expect, the problem now is that my advent ennemy is spreading is culture so much that it flew throught one of my planet and right to my home planet...I lost the asteroid and now my home planet is submerged by their culture. How can I stop that ?
I've moved to another step, now trying a 16 planets map with 4 players. lot of early fight!! I used to 1v1 with pirates off on a 14 planets map. much different game play ! After this game I'm gonna switch to entranchment, I feel ready for it. I've pass the learning curve. Now I understand what to build and when, just need to improve ! Thanks again for all the feedback, much appreciated guys. <
I'm now winning my current game, invaded the homeworld of my ennemy, the advent. They had 3 capital ship, and I had 4 in fight, I managed to lose 2 and almost lost a third before my Dunov support arrived with a small fleet to finish the job. at the end of the fight I still had around 40 operationnal frigate with 4 carrier cruiser and 3 capital ship. Fun as hell. Epic space battle !!!! I almost control all the map and that inactive pirate base is gonna be my next target jus
Thanks for all your help, after starting another game I am getting better and got the colonization trick much faster. I realize that I was expanding too slowly. I was also overdevelloping the little planets I had. The game is much more massive than I imagined, and I'm just in the regular SINS, cant wait to beat that cpu. I read that there is different trade pattern in the two expansions ? Also pirates are strongers ? lol I dont
[quote who="Thoumsin" reply="15" id="3004394"]Quoting ManOWar2, reply 9Well, why are Pirates so strong ? I read that they are even worse in diplomacy (I'm in sins) Why ? Even if I try to put bounty on my ennemy he always put more and they come to me. [...] [/quote] I'll try more MOD when I can at least beat an easy cpu in the original game setting. lol...
Thanks for all the help here, but now that I turned the pirate off, I'm playing against an easy CPU. I think I managed slowly to win battles and defeat some capîtal ship with taking maybe half of a small map (14 planet) then I decide to move on the suposed weaken easy cpu and I see a fleet double of mine (70-80 vessels) wtf ? lol I guess I'm playing the game too slowly, galciv 2 style.</p
I started a new game and turned the pirate off. Much more easier. I will also be able to devellop an economy wich I totally lacked skill for in my early game. I waited so much time in my previous game that the easy AI was able to assemble a huge fleet he did that probably while I was learning how to develloped the planet...lol Well, why are Pirates so strong ? I read that they are even worse in diplomacy (I'm in sins) Why ? &nb
So yeah I'll turn them off next game. lol
I tried two normal games of sins, but yeah pirates drain so much of my attention I neglect my Easy computer AI ennemy...and when I'm finnally ready to get more than 2 planet and 2 asteroid I dont have enough ship to take on a planet. lol Hard game, so much fun thought. Freaking pirates killed all my colony while fighting the ennemy :(
I started a new game and decided to go progressively. 1 game of each before going to trinity. Epic spaceship battle !
So, I just bought the game, SOSE : Triniy throught digital download in impulse. I played the tutorial for basic movement and the game look awesome. Should I start playing it by chapter or right-away with trinity (diplomacy?) Is there any major difference between theses mods ? Is the game already up to date ? Do I need to make other update ? Thank you in adva.ce
