vasari research in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

so after looking up vasari tactics, i found out about the dark fleet tech in empire tree. OH MY GOD, how fun is that once you get it? when playing i tried to hardest to neglect my other research techs and focus in on dark fleet. almost all my planets had a phase tunnel and pretty soon i had a full fleet ALL THE TIME. i know some are looking for the nerf for this, but given that its tech 8, one would have to be pretty focused. so on to the question. do

fighters vs bombers in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

so the way i thought about them is as follows: fighters take out bombers bombers take out ships (ie. frigates and larger) am i wrong? cause other posts i see is that people are using fighters to combat frigates and such, they are supposed to counteract the enemies bombers that are chewing up your frigates and larger ships. there was one post titled 'gameplay mechanic issue' and the guy goes on and on about not being able defend properly while hes stocked up on fighters i

Reply to Am I a crappy player when.... in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

this hap[quote] LOL the AI will make you pay for waiting (its by design). 2-3 hours has been the average game for me on small maps because i like epic battles. I pretty much turtle on purpose, and wait for the AI steamroll fleets to show up. Then blammo! bye bye AI. [/quote] yeah this is when i got smashed last night, split my forces and got stuck with the AI's choke point between one planer and my colony's choke point. it just got ridiculous

in space no one can eat ice cream in Strategy Sins Forums

so your being overrun... lots of questions: 1. does anyone have good cap ship combos that they like? (previously asked but its a good, debatable question) 2. how many cap ships total do you like to have in one fleet? 3. do you mix fighters in defense hangers and carriers/cap ships.? (balanced or specialized (ie. carriers have all fighters and hangers have all bombers or vise versa or mixed for all)) 4. are you having fun blasting people into the

Reply to Let's talk Unit Balance ! in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

i know what you mean, but, last night i played a game and at this point have gotten to a stalemate of a huge fleet coming at my heavily defended choke point planet. of course i was a while into the game at that point; however, are you building up your captured planets and asteroids for better colonies and more logistics and tactical points? i enhance my planets and asteroids 1st, even before queuing research. if your colonies are fully developed or on their way before you move on to colonize

Reply to auto placing structures in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

yeah i have noticed the structures are clumped usually, which sometimes is good and sometimes not. i played a game last night with auto place on the whole time and while the logistics structures were primarily in small groups the tactical ones were placed appropriately near the clumps. but when they are placed near a phase lane that leads to one of my planets is when i get annoyed.

auto placing structures in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

does any one use the auto place? what problems do anyone have with the AI doin this? i just leave it on to save time and the structures are placed near the various stations that i have built. oh and a related question, where can we see the area of affect with things like the repair hanger and the turrent and such?
