one way might to make a set of gateway techs that have enormous costs, but the first is at a severe discount, or the first makes the prices get a discount of about -1000000000 percent.

Great game. Wish we'd gotten mod tools before the patch. But that's just because i'm so obsessed with how awesome the possibilities are, and i'm mouthing the advent chatter along with it, so I fear for my sanity (getting the random ones took some practice) :CONGRAT: Besides, not failing school is a good thing on its own

[quote]Have any of you played Star Wars: Rebellion?It's my favorite Star Wars game, and I think is one of the best RTS's of all time.[/quote] Still do, that game taught me a lot of how to play strategy games. The abstraction was well done, intuitive but deep, but the graphics sucked so much I bought force commander... bad move :NOTSURE:.

I agree completely with the OP, but I have also been defeated by people with many more planets. clearly those are major league imba too, could somebody remove those too? Also, it's too hard to win when the other guy has more money, that should be fixed so not having money doesn't make it harder to win. thnx guyz.

yeah, I honestly can't wait! Oh, right, yeah, i'm doing it, so I can't wait till we release...? something like it. We've already got a lot of good work in, and i just hope everything is as good as inert's work. Can't wait till we get the full modding package and see what can be done.

oh, yeah, the eagle head. just the extra touch of imperial fanciness on the space cathedral cake. and you do not wish we'd done nids. somewhere between the eating anims and the fact that there are no regular shapes on the bloody things they just aren't a good idea. plus, the imperial ships are modular, so once you're done with the cruiser, you just need to replace the weapons batteries with lances and/or launch bays to get the different variants. and that is one nice looking eagle on th

[quote] Sins of a Solar Empire is a big, audacious game that succeeds so profoundly that it deserves to be on every strategy gamer's PC, and warrants attention from those who might ordinarily run a mile from real-time or turn-based gaming. It's a wee bit early to be declaring PC Strategy Game of the Year, particularly since Starcraft 2 is waiting in the wings, but it speaks volumes that Blizzard's monster is going to have to be something really special if it wants to be anything other than s

i think he was referring to our initial roster of three, but that's just the first group, it'll have all the races with fleets (including the Adeptus Mechanicus most likely) by the time we're done, but we just want to get something done first.

hmmm, those old tau would probably be very useful, i can't get any reference pics for them, but the imperial ships are pretty common, so we shouldn't need the info, but i'll leave it to inert to decide. Thanks a ton for the support :CONGRAT:

cruise ships tend to give the higher paying passengers better views, and considering the manual says it's carrying civilians who basically insisted on it being like a cruise ship it looks better and makes more sense the way it is. plus, it looks its part.
