[quote]You could probably get away with having multiple weaker raids active at a given time, and since they'd acquire new targets regularly this would remove the EBay bid system since the pirates would pick new targets much more regularly.[/quote] I don't understand I'm sorry Darvin3. Is it that in diplomacy are they dumber? Because that seems not to be the case, they're more aggressive, like early in the game, at least in mine. I understand mid-to-end game is fine, I had no problems

No one mentioned it, but the current "strength" of pirates raids defaults to how bigger the bid is, so technically speaking you put a lot of effort/money on Computer Ai, say 1,000 credits, then threat of the pirates gets "severe" or "guarded", then at the last second, Ai puts 1,250 credits on you so guess what, the "severe" threat bounces back. I personally agree with you guys, I always turn them off to have actual fun. They should balance them seriously.

Repair Cloud... Just another "excuse" for us Advent to use Detonate Antimatter.

Have anyone noticed this? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Vasari. I've just realized some of the Vasari ships resemble creatures. Have anyone noticed this as well? Take the Squirantra, isn't that a squid viewed from top? Take the subverter, isn't that a shrimp? Or the Ravastra? Shrimp-like too. What about the Vulkoras? Even the panel icon looks like a vulture. The Enforcer looks almost like some sort of crab-spider-bug crossbred and the nick-name for the Jarrascul is sometimes "space-whale". Funny. Take the Se

An alien, infected, hiegenically altered and twice-used tampon. That's whats chasing the vasari.

Reply to Do you name your capital ships and planets? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

My first planet is always named Homeworld. I'm too fond for it. As a new capital planet is designed, it is named as well Homeworld, then the other is named something else.

Reply to The best race for a carrier fleet in Strategy Sins Forums

Sorry, I just play Vasari for now. That's all I got. I've searched the manual and found nothing exceptionally better than the strat I just gave you, IMO though.

Reply to The best race for a carrier fleet in Strategy Sins Forums

Vasari Skirantras carriers can make several copies of any fighter/cruiser ship at level 6. Also they can produce an aditional bomber squad, making them the only capital ship with most fighters squadron in game. With these abilities, they can bolster your fleet at any moment given it has antimatter. Not to mention, they can emit a cloud that repairs over time their fleet around them. Consider having a bunch of carriers with a level 6 Skirantra and "replicate forces" ability.

Reply to I keep getting overwhelmed by Pirates.I can't win? in Strategy Sins Forums

Ha! By visiting those links of Axis, I realize that Tralon hasn't read the manual at all, or even caring to try any of the tutorials... tsk, tsk. Dear Tralon, the manual doesn't explain how to suck at a game, yet you do it flawlesly lol.

Reply to I keep getting overwhelmed by Pirates.I can't win? in Strategy Sins Forums

Tralon, you will sincerely excuse me for laughing, not from you, but that last message from you was very funny for me. It happened to me, not in this game, but in a similar 4x which I didn't understood as well. I see perhaps you need, as every dude has tell you before, to research more "space" to accomodate your next ships. That's called Fleet Research. There, although you see "blank" spaces on the artifact, which is ok at the start of the game, the "Fleet" one isn't as you might think. The "ran

Reply to Let us know what you'd like in v1.03 in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Personally I would like to know if any of my ships/planet deffenses are lost/destroyed, not only for Cap Ships. I could recall C&C "unit lost" or Homeworld "frigate lost" audible sound. In the heat of battle, especially in large battles, this little feature could save you time and help you decide if an early retreat would be wise.
