I think that no mather what they add, the should at least increase some of the lore in this game, so that it plays a larger part, then being 5 pages that we can just read out of a book as background story. But here some ideals. First as it stands right now there are no non-military victories. If I have a lot of money , I build more warships, if I have more culture I have stronger ships and for tech .........[e digicons]:cylon:[/e] ..........[e digicons]:cylon:[/e] [e digicons]:cylon

So only ships can jump between sta rbases? And the phase stabilizer on the star base, does it replace the normal phase stabilizer and act just like it? Can I call in thew Dark fleet for a star base, just like the normal Phase Stabilizer? Is the old Phase Stabilizer still in the game? And if it is, there any type of supply point or cost to balance out the use of the old system and the new starbases? I also want to check and see if I am right on this. 1. The Vasari st

Thanks printmiles , that answers my question on the capital carriers. I see then just increased the supply points for the Cruiser Carrier to make up for the increase in the number of squadrons for the Cruiser Carrier. I went to ign.com and found some more information on the star bas, here it

Could you also do a test on the capital carriers, to see if that question I ask about was fixed, printmiles?

I also have some questions for you printmiles . First did they increase the number of squadrons for the capital carrier ships? If they did, then for the about the same number of support points, I would have twice as many squadrons for using carrier cruisers then I would for carrier ca

Your ideal sound a lot like how you build ships in Sword of the stars. here is the link for you to see. http://sots.rorschach.net/ But lets go back to your ideal of custom capital ships. First of the dev. seemed to make the capital ships along the lines of the heros form warcraft 3. They kill something, warcraft 3 kills people and Sins of a Solar empire kills ships. Form these killings they gain exp, which increase there level.

I don't think that most people are asking for an uber ship, but for a capital ship that is just that a capital ship. Like I said before, almost all the capital ships in the game are over sizes support cruisers, even the battleships. I did a test on the ships and found that in order to to even come close in terms of 4 heavy cruisers (i.e. 48 support points) you need your battleship[ to be around level 4 and 5. This would of been o.k. if it was around levels 1, 2 or 3 , but 4 and 5? The fact is

Well Shadowhal , right now as it stands you only use higher economic output to build more warships. Until there is another way of winning other then destroying your enemy, everthing you do will lead to the same point. Sending the other guy down in a ball of fire. I think that the main thing

I think, that I have an middle ground for Onicrom and Shadowhal about the government thin

Last time I checked, "or" normal means mutually exclusive. You with us "or" against us. Its one "or" the other. Which normal means to me that it is mutually exclusive. But I do understand your point. Your point is that the lack of infomation allows us to make any of the faction "almost" any way we want them to be. So I could make any one faction in my fan fiction into the "good guys" and the other two into the "bad guy", and that why I said I understand the problem the dev. have of making all

I think the thing you are asking for, will come out in the second Micro expansion, volney81. But what would be easy to do, is different victory backgrounds like what TKaz84 said on page one of this post.

May be Darvin 3 there all one and the same. May be the unity is an utopian society, because they have an mind-controling regime. May be TEC is nothing more then one big Private military company, that try to spin it self as a coaliton trying to defend its people. May be the Vasari are nothing more then nomadic brutal dictators. But with out an more infomation, all we have is "May be".

I think that if we do change the capital ships into WMDs, then we need make so we use them, just like we do in Tom Clancy's Endwar. Here is an link. http://endwarboards.com/endwar-media/endwar-jsf-wmd EndWar’s Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMDs) are part of the game mechanics where the losing side gains access to use a WMD, while the winning side gains an empty and loading WMD that he also gets to u

I think that the main reason, that the dev don't add more lore, is because they would have a hard time producing a red, blue and green faction infomation, over the normal black or white. Most good rts factions are more like different shades of evil the good vs evil. This makes it so that ever one does not play the good faction only with a few with the evil faction. You hate them all ,but there is one that you hate less then the others, or looks more white to you.

Illriginal , half of what you want, will be coming out in the next two Micro expansion. See this link to gametrailers.com, for more infomation http://www.gametrailers.com/player/usermovies/289036.html Als

To answer your question wooky325, you can see it in the into to the game. It is some phase based system that overloaded and is now destroying everthing from the point of the lab out words. It could be called a "phase bomb" or a weapon who's explosion moves along the phase lanes. Therefore any place you could jump to, would be destoryed in time, an would look like some super forces was coming after you.

Is it just me, or does any one else out there would like to how the different factions in Sins of a Solar Empire work? Does any one else other then me, would like to know how courtship and family, works for the Vasari, or the societal characteristics of the TEC or the class workings of the advent, or is it just me, who ask these questions?

Hi it has been a long time from my last post, so for give me if some one has already posted this question (also the search engine does not what to work for me). So I went to gametrailer.com and found out that there are 3 micro expanstions The first being Entrenchemt The second working on "non-military" parts of the game. and the third, ... well there is no infomation out yet here is the link. <a href="http://www.gametrailers.co

Thanks for answering my question, John Falkenberg. So this means, that unless there is a form, of natural FTL out their, or we find a really powerful energy sources, that can force up wormholes, then we will see no-FTL space warfare, right? Also what about shield, do you think they can work, or are they useless.

Thanks John Falkenberg, but what about this wormhole thing, in which the way to move between two points in space, is to bring them together, instead of traveling at FTL speed to reach them in seconds?

My name is Homefleet, John Falkenberg, not Homework. Like my fleet is my home, just like the Spacer Vasaris. Has any one played a game, or read a book, or seen a movie in which there was space warfare and no FTL technolgy?

I have updated the main post. Please read and put in your input. Thank you New question that are still not answerd. Is there any reason, to use coil guns and lasers together, as they produces heat and require power from the ship. Having them both would reduce energy faster, and produce a lot of heat faster, then a coil gun and missile system, or an laser and missile system.

[quote]You see fellows, what Wanderer17 and Bigglesworth_XIII have been secretively hinting at all through this thread is that realistic space combat is BORING.[/quote] Boring, would be based on your point of view. Based on what I have seen, and read, and see that there will be very few class of space warships. In some cases, you many only have one class of warship in space! I grow up, on the old rock, paper, scissors system of combat. From my first days playing Suikoden 1 to todays Sin

Carbon016, do you see any reason, to use coil guns and lasers together? As they both need energy from the ship, and produce waste heat for the ship. I mean, your going to heat up your ship faster if you use them together, instead of using a missile system and one or the other.
