Following that logic, there's no point in making a Star Wars mod for Sins, because Empire at War is already out, or any other mod since a real company will make a similar game some day.

If the game were modded right, a Mount & Blade-ish game where the player owns and runs a personal fleet in the middle of the big galactic war could be pretty fun. It'd take a lot of work, including the creation of NPCs for all sides, the ability to build and maintain ships, etc. But on some of the bigger, multi-system maps, an RPG mod for Sins could be a truly grand thing. If anyone is seriously considering doing this, I wouldn't mind writing for it.
This happened to me my first game today. When I started a new game my guys were shooting as normal again.
That worked! Thanks!
I'm beginning to think the same happened to me. I pre-ordered through Stardock Central today, registered my purchase and all, and while Stardock recognizes that I've bought the thing there are no further options to download the beta. I've sent a question to Stardock's support address, but that shuts down at 4 EST so I've not heard anything yet. If buying through Stardock Central doesn't let me into the beta, I'd like to know why I still had to pay the full $45.
