I hope you guys can pull your clan together. The Pink Space Ponies would be a welcome addition to the list of Sins based Clans.

We might even be able to make the planet have the 'speed up hyperdrive jump' ability. That would dispense with the invisible jump gate. We will have to wait for the tools to be released to know how many options we have to do this though (but do it we shall!). Hehe, this is going to be sweet!

Reply to Star Wars Mod in Sins Modding Sins Forums

That would be perfect, but I am not sure if the Forge tools will allow us to make only certain planet phase lanes quicker, and not others. We will have to see. The good news is that we have several ways to make the effect we are after. So we will get what we need for sure.

If you check out the 'semi-official' Galactic Map for Star Wars, you'll see there are several 'shipping lanes' spread out amongnst several sectors. I am thinking many areas will be pure 'fully connected' to bette match the Star Wars hyperspace tech concept. However, I can arrange limited phase lane 'bottlenecks' by disallowing jumps beyond a certain distance. Additionally, specific areas with a lot of black holes and star clusters ( = lots of deadly gravity wells) can be made to use p

Once you send one of us the PM to join on our official site, we'll give you the permissions needed to access the forum. What you see when you get there is the public section. Unfortunately, there really isn't much going on in the Public section. 95% of the action is in the membership section (and you need to be a clan member to access it). Welcome aboard!

Well, I think Siege Frigates are good enough now with their armor, hullpoints and damage ratings. However, since they carry such a heavy load of bombs, they should be as slow as coloniser ships.

If you spent that much time playing with EvilleJedi's outstanding mod, then you should be honored to be in his presence.

The clan's membership has achieved 20 members. Congrats to all fellow members. Hmmm, now that means we'll be looking into running an internal tourney for the rank of Vice Admiral in a month or so.

Reply to Star Wars Mod in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Hi EvilleJedi, I would be happy to make the custom Star Wars galactic map for the mod. I was thinking of doing the following. Most star systems would be a single planet. There would be no seperate stars with their own gravity wells. Instead, the 'star system planet' would have a MASSIVE gravity well. Within that gravity well, and off to the side, I would put in one of the 3D star models (it will just be there for effect). Depending on the specifics of each system, I might put in ad

Reply to why planets and not systems? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Well, nothing stopping a person from making a custom map where you have a planet (that functions as normal), a MUCH larger gravity well, and a 3d star model off to the side (in the same gravity well). This way, the planets are what are hooked up to each other, and the stars are just in the same gravity wells for looks/feel. I am fairly sure that EvilleJedi's Star Wars mod for this game will use this kind of custom map.

Running your cap ship around during combat in the early game can also help win fights (depending on your capship type).

Reply to Star Wars Mod in Sins Modding Sins Forums

I've considered refueling mechanics as well. Perhaps we could give capital ships some sort of 'trade station' value. So trade ships make their way too and from the capital ships, all the way back to the 'trade center depots'. Simply give these little trade/resupply ships the 'solar regen' ability and they will recharge your ships when they enter the same gravity wells. Strikecraft and corvettes would likely end up being used a lot for raiding these supply lines. Yeah, I know

No, your title will be canon fodder.

He can have whatever title he wants to claim. He just isn't allowed into our clan or forum. He is still unhappy about us rejecting him. That is why he likes to hang out in our clan link topic and post irritating comments.

Damnit Thrawn, I was just editing my post to fix it, and you had to make a reply post in under 2 minutes...sigh. *A final little question about strikecraft. Non hyperdrive equipped strikecraft (such as the cheap Tie Fighter) would work well with the present stock mechanics (of course, they need to have much longer build times). However, what about all the hyperdrive equipped strikecraft that CAN operate far away from their base ships? Do you think it would make more sense to have X-w

Reply to Star Wars Mod in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Hey Eville, it is interesting how closely we see the final mod being. Here are some of my personal thoughts on the project details you've mentioned (to shorten the post, I'll only mention things I see differently from what you've shared so far): 1. Weapon Fire Range: I would like to see weapon ranges in the 500km-1000km range (at least for the largest weapons). Closing the range would enable ships to bring to bear their shorter ranged weapons/torps and so on. ECM ships would

It is okay Annatar, we have had the Rear Admiral and Vice Admiral planned for a while now. It isn't your fault for putting the idea in Eet's head.

Reply to The Galactic Empire Clan [GE] in Sins Clans Sins Forums

All kidding asside, we only have a new Admiral rank for every additional 10 members we get. So right now, we have 1 Grand Admiral and 1 Admiral. The next 10 members will merit the creating of a Rear Admiral. Maybe Eet will voluntarily be demoted to Rear Admiral just for the title.
