heh, reminds me of the night that there were 8 Wedge-HG's in the WON lobby. *shakes fist at Firehawk* Looks like it's time for someone to swing the admin hammer around a bit.

As far as I know they all move in the same ways. The movement interface ought to be the same too. Would be kinda silly to make them all different. Would just make things unnecessarily complicated. The only differences would be, as noted by Paradonxnt, in speed and potentially certain special abilities that are unique to each species.

Reply to Antimatter - what does it do? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I think the simple answer is that antimatter is the basic unit of fuel/energy for spacecraft. Certain quantities of it are used up to do most things that ships do.

Gang, you're getting very worked up over a game concept. Everyone take a deep breath and relax. After a Phase Space jump, a portion of the anti-matter a ship has "vanishes" and needs to be replenished (which happens naturally from the Star). That's how it appears in-game to the player. <br

Not the bar, Einstein, but the antimatter in the fuel tank. This loss would be represented the same way as any other antimatter consumption would: a less than full bar. Get it? "that renders portions of it unuseable" ... "it" being antimatter. "portions" meaning less than all of it. Of course I realize that frozen is just a general term. That's why I said "or any other similar term." The general meaning of all such terms being that it is unusable NOW but will become usable again at some
