Reply to Nice game, but early game ... in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

I will agree that bombers destroy defenses with alarming efficiency and I personally think that starbases should have weapons capable of engaging strikecraft much like titans do. Maybe have the last weapon upgrade give anti strike craft weapons in addition to the other final upgrade (although I feel a default starbase should be able to engage strike craft). The Death Star didn't have any means to deal with fighters and we all know what happened to it... twice (SPOILER ALERT: the D

Reply to [Rebellion] Balance Suggestions in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

I like the Skirmishers as they are to be honest. One on one with the other light frigates they wreck them, I think it's more a cost issue but I agree there is something. Just my thoughts.

Reply to Nice game, but early game ... in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

I feel like the problem here isn't the game mechanics but rather the fact that your enemy is getting a bigger fleet faster than you are. If your enemy can afford a dozen or more carriers and 10 torpedo cruisers in addition to a couple of capitals, long range frigates, anti-fighter frigates and the like then you've got more than your starbase to worry about. Before you blame the Hard AI income bonus I'll say I'm in the midst of playing a game against 3 Hard AIs (allied

Reply to Pirates in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

I personally think the pirates should only come with their modified cargo ships that steal trade income for the first few levels. I mean, they are pirates there to, well, pirate. Maybe at higher levels add in some pirate Cobalts, and maybe at level 4 raids have Gardas then save a couple of Kodiaks and Krosovs for the largest attacks. I really think it's a bit ridiculous how the pirates have the best fleet into the midgame and how whoever gets that first raid on them is crippled (A

Reply to Map Making Advice in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

People are probably talking about using galaxy forge which allows you to place planets in specific locations and choose the phase lane connections you want. There should be a galaxy forge folder in your default Sins of a Solar Empire directory (with steam, my directory is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Sins of a Solar Empire Rebellion\Galaxy Forge yours may be different however)

Reply to 'Turret expand' in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I'd say increase the cost of tactical structures when hostile units are in the gravity well. If possible maybe this could only apply when militia are in a gravity well but if it was when all hostiles are in the gravity well I'd be fine with it. I certainly would want some danger pay if I was told to work on construction projects in the middle of a battle.

[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="12" id="3380711"] Quoting Valpheus, reply 11I think you will notice pretty soon that the Vasari voice acting was kind of... lame. If you could not stand them, the Vasari Deep Voice mod should help a bit. I wouldn't assume that everyone, or even most people agree. I do not mind the Vasari voice acting at all (it was their music I couldn't stand). At the least that is an odd thing to plug to someone who has no idea what the Vasar

Flak Is Useless in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Man, flak is so ineffective in this game. I mean, you look at the infocard and think: Holy ****, these frigates have guns on all sides and tonnes of health, I'll spam these and insta-win And when you spam flak what happens? YOU GET TRASHED. LF beats flak, HC beats flak, Capships eat flak like nothing and Titans swallow them whole. All flak can do is kill fighters and corvettes, hell, even mass bombers can take down flak. double you tee eff, I thought flak was anti-

AI Spamming Scouts (Sins 1.51) in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

So I just started a game against an Unfair AI (1 v 1) and about 30 minutes in a fleet of 4 Disciples (Light Frigates) and 13 Seeker Vessels (Scouts) attacks. Safe to say I had no problem but does anyone else have this happen? I'm all for the AI spending half of its income on ships but a fleet with 13 scouts that don't even participate in the combat (that's right, they just sat there) is a bit of a waste.

Reply to Gametype that starts with ALL research discovered? in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

You could easily make one. You'd just need to edit EVERY SINGLE entity file that has a research prerequisite and remove that and set the prerequisite count to 0. Seeing's how each race (TEC, Advent, Vasari) has about 130 researches and we'll say 10 faction (Rebel, Loyalist) specific researches that's only 450 entities (theoretically, some researches are simply bonus income rates which can be changed in the gameplay.constants or planet files). Happy modding.
