[quote who="Darvin3" reply="24" id="3002948"]Agreed; siege frigates remain very very niche, especially for TEC and Vasari since they have superb siege options from capital ships.[/quote] Personally, I believe that Siege Frigates got nerfed into oblivion, and need to be rebuffed a little, much like the Terran Reaper in StarCraft II.
The only problem with Homeworld Shipyards is its dead.

[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="83" id="3002685"]That only leaves 3 ships left for the corvettes, assuming they haven't been cut.[/quote] That's exactly what I am thinking too.
[quote who="myfist0" reply="46" id="3002594"]Pride of Hiigara = Movable Starbase or a 1 time build Super Capital or Titan[/quote] Great idea. The problem with Homeworld is there are so many strike craft, when Sins only has two, and there aren't many mid range ships that can fill Sins cruiser roles.
Maybe there is just one corvette class ship for each race, and I suspect that the devs took a leaf out of the DS playbook with them?
That is one problem with Homeworld in general, not as many ships and ship roles as Sins, which makes them difficult to add to Sins. Well, I would recommend the following: Strike Craft Interceptor and Assault Craft = Fighter Bomber = Bomber Gunship and Missile Corvette = Corvette Pulsar Gunship and Laser Corvette = Heavy Corvette Frigates Scout = Scout Frigate (for lack of a better choice) Torpedo Frigate and Plasma Lance
[quote who="Yarlen" reply="71" id="3001908"]2 new structures[/quote] What, I haven't heard about any new structures before, I wonder what those will be.
If I could use PayPal to pre-order, I would probably do it, but by the time I will be able to, during the beta, the discount will be over, which defeats the purpose of pre-ordering in the first place.
I don't particularly like EA, their DRM and business practices are questionable, and they destroy good studios with their taint. Maxis (never much cared for games like The Sims and Spore, but come on), Westwood Studios (CnC Generals managed to avoid the taint, but BfME series could have been so much better), and Pandemic Studios (its as simple as the Star Wars: Battlefront series was great, but LotR Conquest was just awful with the same engine) got dismantled for their IP, which was turne

[quote who="Major Stress" reply="2838" id="3001297"]I have pretty much made no big secret that i am not a fan of Voyager. If they made Voyager more "believable" I wouldnt be so critical of it. What i mean by that is if Voyager itself didnt miraculously repair itself to pristine fresh out of spacedock condition after each battle with no logistcal support for spare parts. Yet it always seemed to have a surplus of spare parts.. even a spare warp core :/. Are they sure they didnt put Borg regener

[quote who="Major Stress" reply="2835" id="3001052"]The Delta Flyer? An omni-purpose nigh invulnerable craft built from "scrap" in the hangar of a light cruiser lost in space. It would be great cause it can take on the Borg Collective all by itself (can you feel the sarcasm here). Seriously, I do like the design. The problem is where to put it, and what purpose would it serve? Its too big to be a fighter, and we already have the Danube as a Starbase, and Hangar defense only heavy fighter.[/qu

What did you thing of the Delta Flyer then?

Sorry, I didn't know Major Stress hated superweapons, and everything that wasn't your average ship, that didn't fit into vanilla and Entrenchment.

The Scimitar is about the only Star Trek ship that could be a Titan that I can think of, besides the largest Borg vessels of course.
I am sure WB means WindowBlinds, one of Stardock's software products.
I used to watch TOS during the Thanksgiving Day marathon every year back in the 90's, and I couldn't really get into TRS, because of all of the switching around things and the "gritty at each others throats" drama. That was also what turned me off about SGU, with its same brand of drama just with more planets, that didn't really feel like SG1 and SGA. The fact that SGU killed the new SG1 and SGA movies with its cancellation sure hasn't helped its reputation with me eit
[quote who="Kitkun" reply="4" id="2999142"]What is it you dislike about Diplo?[/quote] I suspect that some players mild dislike for Diplomacy has to do with the fact that only with the last four patches did the Diplomacy content finally start becoming useable, and even then things like pacts are still rarely used. Diplomacy ICO games often play like Entrenchment ones with a research requirement for feed from what I have heard the ICO veterans say and from what I have experienced.
When I regain access to a computer capable of handling Sins, I would like to do this kind of thing, because I have very little experience with multiplayer.
[quote who="GunslingerBara" reply="9" id="2999013"]According to those requirements, a GTX 580 should run the game perfectly... [/quote] And of course, I don't have a GTX 580, all I got is ancient stuff like a GeForce 4200 Ti and a GeForce 6200, much less sufficient RAM, about the only thing that is acceptable is the processor. I guess I really need to build a new computer of my own if I ever want a play a new video game ever again.
The impression I am getting is the AI still needs a lot of work, especially the Advent and their stupid Aeria Drone Host minelayer-only nonsense.

So they're just continuing the trend with Rebellion.[/quote] Actually, to my knowledge, Ironclad only added 7 maps in Diplomacy and no additional maps in Entrenchment; I ought to know, I added articles for all of the maps on the Sins Wiki, after having wrote down all of the descriptions, and comparing the map lists in the three.

Ah, Odyssey-class, well I wonder where they got that name from? Oh wait, I know, the Galaxy-class USS Odyssey destroyed by the Dominion shortly before the Dominion War broke out.
