My Pic Made the Screenshot of the Day!

December 16, 2008 1:00:41 AM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

I submitted a screenshot for Pic of the Day over at FileFront's Sins of a Solar Empire Files, and it looks like it made the cut!  It's called Death of Tarsika.  I took it during a natsy, big fleet battle between my TEC forces and the Vasari.  The picture captured the moment when an enemy Jarrasul Evacuator succumbs to my attacks and erupts with a massive blastwave.  It was happenstance that one of my Dunovs appears to be fleeing the shockwave. 

 

BTW:  you can read the faux news article I wrote detailing the events leading up to this battle here.  I will have a follow-up article shortly detailing the events that took place during this battle.

It takes a bit of hunting.  Go here:

 

C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\ScreenShot

 

It makes you take a trek through your directory.

These forums should have a dedicated screenshot thread.  Sins is such a pretty game, it deserves to have a thread promoting its flash.

That is a great shot actually.  Reminds me of a splash on a game's cover art.
