Thank you. Pre-ordering now. Although, darnit: the discount doesn't apply unless you have either Diplomacy or Trinity.

I own the original Sins and Entrenchment, but not Diplomacy. Does Rebellion come with that, or do I need to purchase it separately? (Can Diplomacy even be purchased stand-alone now, or do I have to go all-in and get Trinity?)

Hotkey the Phase Gates and disable Autocast if you need to build something else (support cruisers, colonizers, etc.). Likewise, you might be able to select a phase gate (not the planet) and set a rally point for it (not sure).

The big advantage of hangars? Range. They can hit anything in the gravity well, unlike guns which have to be placed? Only 1 way into the system? Guns may be the way to go. 5 phase lanes into the system? Maybe think about hangars.

Devious...

Note that these guys developed strat zoom independently.

On larger maps, buy a few hundred units of crystal immediately. You won't see it at a 3:1 credit/crystal ratio for a long time, and it's nice to have a small stockpile. If you find you really don't need it, you can sell it back for a tidy profit within a few minutes. I'm sure there's almost a mini-game in buying low and selling high...

This size patch would normally take most developers months to produce. And it's just the first... Pa

FWIW, I liked the idea about letting anti-fighter frigates shoot down siege missiles. It may help balance things a bit, and it would definitely have a "cool" factor. I think part of the debate is whether or not fixed defenses should be able to hold off a moderately-sized fleet. Looking at the game design, the answer seems to be "no".

Thanks. I'll see if #3 is the issue. My colony ship should have antimatter; it hasn't done anything.

For the asteriod gravity well, how do you put extractors on it? My colony ship doesn't seem to do anything, and construction frigates can't phase jump.

I think it'd be nice just to be able to import GC2 models created with GC2's in-game ship designer into Sins. That'd be nice in a patch or expansion, or even a little $2 downloadable content like another company does.

"I'm sorry Quimi79, the game is not translated into Spanish . We hope to have a translation in the future." How's that for 13 years since Spanish in high school?

Multianna - Everyone you circled just doubled the amount they'll pay to bounty you. :)

We've seen "Minimum" and "Recommended" specs. Do the latter assume maxed graphics settings? If not, any chance we can get a set of recommended specs for max graphics?

Very cool. Thanks. 2GB RAM, btw. :)

Just curious, what is the largest number of ships an empire can have? What about a given fleet in a given gravity well?
