Well the AI's also do surrender early on occasion, so you don't ALWAYS have to destroy everything. But yes, you're trying to conquer all opposition to win.

Reply to A Guide for General Military Strategy in Strategy Sins Forums

Would it be considered "spamming" if you're just creating a certain number of said counter to counter your opponent's spam? I would think that the term "spamming" implies blindly making a ship over and over again with no real strategic thought behind it. But what do I know anyway; maybe I'm just splitting hairs on the subject. hahaha

It'd make the Vasari base a LOT less useful for assaulting a grav well too. You pretty much need that 1st weapons upgrade at least.

[quote who="The_Rezonator_1" reply="11" id="2113079"] only the highest amont of bounty should remain when the pirates launch.[/quote] The only problem I see with this is say (extreme example) two players go in a bidding war and the end results are 10,000 cr to 10,250 cr. Suddenly the winning player is out 10,250 cr while the loser gets back 10,000 cr... And remember, bounty doesn't just work for the pirates. You can collect it too (as long as you didn't place

Does allegiance go down any faster with it though? I haven't actually timed it and checked.

Reply to facepalmed....cultural style. in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

I think at the very least the deliverance engine should speed up the culture rate substantially.

Reply to [Deleted] in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

Yeah you kinda' did it in an asshole way. Calling out the player like you did. So he made a game for you difficult in the end, big deal. I mean, I know I wouldn't like to play someone like that, but there could be a more... tactful way to tell everyone about him. A forum post is fine though. "could choose between quitting honorably or carrying on a timewasting charade like a crybaby loser, and if he chose the latter, I'd alert the lobby and forums of his poor b

Reply to Culture as a weapon in Strategy Sins Forums

I won a small map game with culture playing as Advent. Granted I jumped ahead to the star (which was the choke point of the map) and set up several starbases; got a few deliverance engines. That's pretty much all it took. My culture swept through the AI's empire of 4 or 5 planets and ate away at allegiance until they all succumed. :) Of course the game was already decided way before that point and it was me just messing around. But it surely shows there are oth

Yes, the scout has a "mine detection" ability that surrounds it. When a scout moves close to mines, they become vulnerable as long as the scout stays in range.

Reply to Entrenchment replays (1.04) in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

And I must say you did show the two sides of the MP community here. The first two showed a pretty new player getting beat, but he asked questions. I could tell by the second game he worked on the strategy you used for expansion at least. The third game, well... the opposing team started trash talking and making excuses for losing as soon as it started to look bad for them. Oh well....

Reply to Diplomacy Suggestion-Missions in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

I think the idea of the cease fire for the mission is so that you can complete the mission (say on the opposite side of the other guy's empire) without losing diplomacy points b/c you have to fight your way across.

Reply to Diplomacy Suggestion-Missions in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

Yeah I like that completing the mission sooner gives you an extra benefit. Maybe if the reward for the mission slowly lowers the longer you wait to accept it/complete it? Giving you further incentive to finish it. If you finish it at the last second you get a message like "what took you so long?" hahaha I'd also like to see other mission rewards. Say, some ships from a prospective ally. Or quick jump to trade agreement if you build a starbase with t

Reply to Diplomacy Suggestion-Missions in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

I like this idea. Very well thought out. Though I'd think that maybe instead of putting a time limit on when the mission can be accepted, the player should be able to accept the mission at any time as long as there's still time in the mission timer. This way you wouldn't have to babysit the diplomacy window (like the old pirate last-minute bidding). It'd really suck if you missed accepting a mission you were waiting for because you were fighting off an opponent on a mu
