[quote]I say forget about the turrets and just build hangars. Most planets can handle 5-8 hanger bays.....that's 10-16 fighters and bombers per grav well that can go anywhere as opposed to the stationary guns with limited range and arc. If you get a fleet of siege ships coming in (ususally what the easy opponents do) you may only be able to bring one gun to bear on the fleet.....with hangars you have a replenishable strike force.Bases that are suceptable to attak will do well with one repair f

[quote]How do you defend a planet with 5+ phase lanes towards it? I've only played one or two games (both on easy) but it seems as if you get stuck on a planet like the one mentioned above as a chokepoint it is going to be hard to defend, especially early in the game. I know hangars would help, since they auto-cast fighters/bombers, but what else can you do? Thanks for any constructive feedback![/quote] Try to balance the placement of your turrets so that they are the cl

[quote]Anyone know if battle experience for kills is shared between caps or is simply a flat value for all caps present? In other words, if a heavy cruiser is worth 500 exp for a kill when 1 cap ship is in the fight, would two caps get 250 exp each or the full 500 exp for the same kill?[/quote] I haven't got hard proof, but in my experiences, it's shared. I'll look for proof on this later; but hopefully speculation is good enough for now.

[quote]Some of us are better at playing Sins of a Forum Empire than others. I suggest you counter trolls with flak/defense since they're only effective against lightly armored and medium armored posts.[/quote] Winner of this thread.

[quote]If a person has 10 disconnections, that is a person I don't want to play with. They may not be doing it on purpose, but it does ruin the game for everyone else.If you don't have a stable internet connection, you really shouldn't gamble away the time others spend playing.[/quote] Agreed. The end result is the same no-matter what. A game is ruined because somebody left pre-maturely, intentionally or otherwise.

Sadly I am not a Spaniard, yet I support you in your efforts. Modders like you, are the reason why PC gaming is so special. You should release the mod. If only, for the sake of helping future generations of Spanish SoaSE fans.

[quote]it was not and ever would try and bait people, but neither was it my expectation to be slammed for a valid comment, i just think your attitude is very confrountational, and this is my point,I am not a troll, but i suspect you are trying your best to provoke me into being one,[/quote] You first alluded me to being a troll, thus.

[quote]hmmm. looks like i caught one, thanks for your rational, I guess its best for you t fight it out alone, eh[/quote] If the purpose of this thread was to bait people, and then boast about it. Then you sir. Are the troll.

[quote]You cannot log onto ICO simultaneously with multiple machines using the same serial. LAN play is however permitted.[/quote] Which is awesome. I play it over LAN with my nephew on a daily basis.

[quote]Can you also play online with 2 PC's using the same serial-key? Im asking because I own 2 PC's, but my younger brother uses the other one.[/quote] You can over LAN. Trust me, I've tried. I'm not sure if it works for Ironclad Online though.

[quote]It shrkes me in the short time I've been in these forums that there is a lot of arrogance here.So many ppl trying to shut down very valid comments and questions with arrogant and pompous one line replies like,duh, that's easy, I kick their asses on hard every time,this is just spam cause I said something about that in another thread.please don't ask such silly questions.I wont actually quote any ppl, but you all recognise the attitude.Why do some members insist on making themselves look s

I'm not a fan of piracy, however I am a fan of loading up a game I bought legally on multiple computers at home for the sake of LAN play with friends and family. You can't do this with most games, and this only encourages me to lose interest in certain games much faster than I should. I never did bother to buy Civ 4: Warlords or Beyond the Sword for that reason... More-so. Creative salesmanship would be the best counter-agent to piracy. Imagine if you will, a crazy Mar

[quote] Maybe it's just me who's picky... I haven't watched TV in years and I go to more operas than movies.[/quote] Nah, you've got good taste.

It was great up until the very end, which ended far too abruptly. I thought it was a black-screen cut to another scene, until I scrolled down to realize the movie was over. Maybe some credits after the abrupt end would alleviate this problem.

[quote]Gah, how did that happen? Might've done it last version copying pasting between lines. I'll upload a new version tomorrow after I'm done adding gun ranges.[/quote] You're doing a great job. Your charts are by far the best. Keep it up, and I'll keep advertising it to people interested in your comprehensive charts on other forums. =) I'll update the current .jpg's on the site after you complete your next update.

[quote]There is a solid SoaSE wiki already set up - anyone can add a "mods" section to that and get going. I'm not so sure we'll get one set up officially by Stardock or Ironclad.This won't just be for SOASE and it'll be strictly based on Mod tutorials not what Mods are available. I know you could add a Mod section to the SOASE Wiki but it wouldn't really be tutorial based.[/quote] The EncyClanPedia isn't just for SoaSE though, and we've already got the backing of over twenty mod group

[quote]You acn download (via bittorrent) all of the Homeworld soundtracks from the Relic trackers here: http://hwcommunity.com/tracker/[/quote] Sweet. That makes my life a lot easier. Thanks jdhas. I'm going to download this, and convert all of the files into .ogg's then upload them to Total Gaming Files.

[link="http://www.xfire.com"]X-fire[/link] has one also.

If you guys are truly intent on creating large written tutorials, you could always add them to the [b][link="http://roe.totalgamingnetwork.com/wiki/index.php/Category:Sins_of_a_Solar_Empire%2C_Mods"]EncyClanPedia's SoaSE Mod Section[/b][/link] It'd be a lot easier to show people your work by just showing them a link, and since it's a Wiki, you can just edit it at your whim, and it'll be instantly updated.

[quote]Props to Dairuka too, that strategy works really well except against a good Vasari player (damn phase gates, so you really have to crush their fleet as well as razing the planet each time).[/quote] Against a [b]Human[/b] Vasari player? True, but it's still super-effective if you've managed to push back his defensive fleet, AND his main fleet. Theres no way he can rebuild in time after losing a few planets. Stopping to build up a new colony just wastes precious time, that
