The only Diplomacy action is comp stomps. That's too bad because Diplomacy is better than Rebellion for online multiplayer, IMHO.

Interestingly, if online player counts are any indication, the game isn't very popular right now, and poor racial balance may be a significant contributing factor.

Heavy cruisers will also go down to wail if a planet is involved. As far as I know, Wail doesn't have to go through shield mitigation and might not be affected by armor.

Reply to Question for "No-AI" Players (This is actually serious) in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

If an AI could be developed that could mimic human players, that would be great. No more having to wait for a game and you could play whatever map you wanted with whatever settings you wanted anytime you wanted and pause whenever you wanted. Unfortunately, that's just a fantasy because right now and for the foreseeable future the AI isn't going to compare to the challenge of playing real people.

Reply to [MOD] Rebalanced Races: Rebellion V2.03 [For Rebellion 1.82] in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Any chance of a nerf for Wail? Vasari jumping starbases probably need a big nerf of some sort.

Reply to Advent Rebels = Banned? in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

It's hard to avoid and Wail if you are trying to defend and can be used offensively to take down a fleet that's defending a planet. It could also be used to knock down a guy who is trying to defend in against a 1v2 and thus can't possibly counter it. Watch out Blackhawk! Greg thinks it's a great ability and that there's no problem with it. He'll accuse you of whining if he hears you complaining about it.

Reply to Advent Rebels = Banned? in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

I didn't know about the mod, thx. Yes, Wail can be countered, but the counters are pretty weak unless you are late game TEC. Regardless, it's severely overpowered and has no place in the game. Losing your entire fleet at your own planet you're defending without an actual fleet to fleet fight has no place in the game. (Interestingly, the original Kostura was nerfed for that reason.) Would you mind linking to the mod? I found the Reb Optimizatio

Reply to Is Ironclad ever going to do a price drop on Rebellion? in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

Could you imagine what this game would be like if it had been developed properly--dual core + race balance without ridiculously overpowered abilities? It's probably time for a $10 price drop or a big Steam sale.

Advent Rebels = Banned? in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

Should Advent Rebel be banned from the game just like VR? Wail of the Sacrificed does not belong in this game. That ability should be eliminated and replaced with something else. They also have that overpowered titan. An AR with wail can easily take down a player who's fight a 1v2 since there's be no way he could counter. What this game might need is a "competition mod" that would balance the races. Anyone who plays in the 5v5s would get the mod.&

It allows them to ignore any static defenses/front line positions and jump instantly behind the front lines. This affects the gameplay 100X more than Wail and has been in the game for much longer.

Reply to How about them AIs? in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

When you play against AI, it's like your opponent is retarded. At best, without eco cheat buffs the AI will be merely annoying. It just isn't capable of determining how to deal with starbases and titans nor how to use them properly. That's why you should try it online against human players--"the real Sins game".
