Sins Forums
Im gonna buy trinity today and was wondering whats the funnest way to start off cause i already have the reg sins and ya just want some insight from experienced players and all that good stuff.
well if you already have the original sins just buy the expansion set, its cheaper and will save you $20
Entrenchment would be the next step up to try as you are given a lot of new defense toys (starbases, etc) but the AI isn't even close to being able to handle them and the pirates are still stunted
afterwards go for Diplomacy which has and upgraded AI (still not up to caliber but can give newbies a hard time) and a mean nasty set of pirates
Play with the pirates off in diplomacy, at least at first. Bombers are actually the best way to deal with starbases, even though the game would make you think anti-structure units were. Don't underestimate the pacts.
Playing with pirates from day one is a good way to not get to day two. I still rarely play with them on, but that could be because I'm not very good. 
The diplomacy pirates were tuned up in strength to challenge the veterans, so they absolutely murder everyone else. The veterans still dislike the pirates, despite being a serious threat now, because the feature remains predictable and distracts from the real battle - against a challenging and cunning opponent. As a result, now no one likes them...
