Instead of a mod, this looks like a fully-fledged game in its own right. I wouldn't be surprised to see it in a store. It looks much better then many games that cost money! You could sell this. The quality is amazing. This word "mod" does not do it justice.

[quote]- I like this ability, but it has a big drawback. First it creates 3 clones of your ships, which sounds great, but it only lasts for 150 seconds. That makes this ability a little....eh.[/quote] Use Replicate Forces on a seige platform. You get the idea. Replicate Forces is great during battles. 6 extra squads if you clone carriers for example. If they get destroyed, well so what? [quote]This thing is actually overall pretty weak. This ship brings one thing to the table:

Some really good ideas posted here. I would like to see the implemetation of logistics. You have to supply your army and keep it maintained. Not sure how this would work. Some real-life units that could be added. Foster-Miller TALON SWORDS: American robotic infantry. Can be equiped with an assualt rifle, light machine gun, heavy machine gun, anti-tank weapon or 6-barrelled grenade launcher. Leopard 2 A6M tank: German main battle tank of the European forces. Fast, capab

In the extremely unlikely event that Soase 2 does the same thing (dumb itself down), I will spew. However, the dumbing down of RTS games makes perfect marketing sense. Proper RTS games are appealing to a small audience. Brainless click-fests are extremely popular. Too many people are stupid these days. They want RTS games to be just like FPS games. However, I haven't played either of those games, but I am in complete agreement with you.

Vasari get Assualt Deployment which reduced SB build time. Intelligent armour gives a health and armour boost to all SBs that you own. Maximised Firepower gives a DPS boost and also gives all SBs that you won an extra targetting bank. TEC get similiar upgrades, but instead of Assualt

Interestingly, the newspaper from the state that I live in had an artical saying that there was a survey about government control. Alot of people (30% to 50% depending on the country) in Australia, India, China, some european countries and even the U.S want the government to take more control. The artical said that the findings indicated many people want the government to have a framework that is more "socialist". Apparantly people's greatest fear now is anarchy. [quote]All i must say

[quote]They can't do everything. Sure, there is something in common on all of them, but each one has its unique abilities, where it excels. The point is to add different starbase options for each race, so that you must pick one starbase to tailor you gravity well to your intentions.[/quote] What I mean't was that the current StarBase upgrades have everything covered. Nothing has been left out. Adding new StarBases for the current races is pointless because t

IQ is NOT determined at any point in a person's life. The inventors of IQ did NOT believe that they were determining fixed intelligence. People have

Sicko might be wrong or right whatever, but I didn't base my argument on a single film. America does not have medicare, Australia for example does. Medicare makes operations free for the victim. Last time I checked America does not have this. A person not so well off can't afford medical bills that he has to pay for. A socialist medical system idoes not have these drawbacks however, the waiting lists can be very long. [quote]Then fewer people will invent. Technological progress will

Reply to LOST CD KEY in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Sins does not have DRM. You do not need a CD key to install or play. To patch the game, use Impulse which requires that you use the CD key. The CD key should be on the back of the game manuel. Also, when yoo install it, the CD key should also appear under Impulse. Under My Games there is a registration button. Click on it and it shows your CD key. I hope this helps.
