Reply to Admiral-Dreadnuaght Ship Idea in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Certainly very doable. You would have to create just a small shuttle like mesh, give it an ability that only targets capital ships, then give it the behavior that stabase constructor vessels take when hey vanish and the starbase appears, just no starbase of course. Maybe someone should wave down the devs.

Reply to Admiral-Dreadnuaght Ship Idea in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I used to play a space RTS that was a lot like sins. In it you could build a "Fleet Academy" where you could train admirals. The admirals all had different types of buffs, some buffed fleets, some buffed a single ship, some buffed SC, some added another ability to the flagship. and some did both. When you trained an Admiral, it would build a shuttle, that you would then target a specific ship in your fleet. The shuttle would dock with the ship and it would then be the permanent flagship of th

[quote]3. I absolutely hate games that require 'correct' build orders in order to win. This tendancy makes human players just as predictable as AI players. And most RTS games devolve into this. In short, the longer any RTS game is played online, the more predictable and similar the games get. For me, MP gets boring faster than SP does.[/quote] I find the Ai far more predictable than humans. I will predict that in any game you play against the Ai, it will send 3-5 s

Reply to NEED HELP in Strategy Sins Forums

Azrak, Amish and Darvin pretty much nailed the Varari, but I'll add a few other notes: . Vasari's strength late game is their mobility. Use phase stabilizers to move your fleets quickly from place to place. The vasari superweapon, the Kostura, can also stabilize phase space, allowing you to jump behind enemy lines, its damaging effects also do not effect your ships, but its disabling effect does. Firing a Kostura on a battle in an enemy system can give you time to bring in reinf

a "roid" is a non-dead asteroid. You will almost always start with one within 2 jumps of your HW. They are extremely lightly defended and almost always should be colonized first. Also, don't bother with dead asteroids unless they have some VERY significant tactical position. Having no logistics slots and producing no income, they are a drain on your valuable resources. If they do have a significant position, say as a good choke point, some repair bays and static defenses can help you

What are "User Actions" in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I was watching a replay of a game I played JJ in yesterday, and at the end I went over the stats. On the "Empire" tab at the bottom is a stat called "User Actions", on which every one but JJ had a value of 1. JJ had 121. What are user actions? Update: Well I found out three things, A. The search field for the forums works (last time I checked it didnt but that was a awhile ago) B.) User actions are any meaningful action taken in the game (mouse/button clic

Reply to First Successful Advent Rush...only to get Owned in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

Advent are particularly weak with Planet Bombardment, and with that Purge Vessels are a must for quickly removing an opponent, another cap couldn't hurt either. As for your fleet, you have to balance destroying your enemies fleet with destroying his means of production, luckily this is made easier with illuminators multiple beams. If you've got the upperhand you have to make sure you hang on to it, follow that fleet and destroy it, take down those frigate factories and military labs while you

Reply to Nerf the damn marza in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

This topic had been beaten into the ground. People requesting a nerf, then other people requesting a buff. Lets just leave a message for the devs and move on. Personally I don't think MB is overpowered, especially since I can't think of a better way to shut down an Illum spammer as TEC. The way I see it is if an Illum spammer wants to charge a lvl 6 Marza without anyway to destroy the Marza or stop it from channelling, his fleet deserves to be destroyed. If you

[quote]It's not worth making more than 2 caps except as advent. Tec and Vasari don't benefit from more than two.[/quote] I beg to differ in the simple fact that more capital ships makes each one less of a focus fire target, especially later in the game with fleets so large they can kill a cap ship super quick. As Vasari and TEC I like to get more support abilities from my 2nd 3rd and 4th cap ship. Skiratra Carriers and Dunovs are great second and third cap ships for theri heal

Reply to starbase rush in Strategy Sins Forums

I'd only attempt it if you're sure you can either protect the starbase or sneak it in. I good idea to help pull it off is to attack an enemy territory while sneaking in a migrator. Pulling your opponents attention away from his hw is a good way to get a starbase constructed before your he can destroy it. If your opponent spots it before its complete you may need to run in and protect it. Failing this rush can make this pretty hazardous for you so be careful.

Reply to Rushing as TEC in Strategy Sins Forums

[quote]HC rush is a bad idea.[/quote] I'd say yes if you're really close to an opponent likely to rush. Unless of course you're f-ing amazing. A fifth tier Tech Rush is tough to pull-off, but can hugely beneficial. I would recommend this for situations in which a lower tiered (1-3) rush against you is not an immediate threat. You can pull this off well if there are several ice or volcanic planets between you and your closest enemy, and a decent number of easily claimed
