What if guidance just buffed illuminators so they ignored shield mitigation again?

Reply to What does the Revelation need to truly terrify her enemies? in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

As others have pointed out, many Advent abilities don't warrant a cooldown decrease from Guidance. So as not to overlap existing abilities, what if it also/instead a.) increased anti-matter regeneration and maybe b.) shield regeneration rates? I don't recall any other abilities doing either of those. Alternatively, I know Advent culture does this but you could throw c.) PM block in

Revelation thread here. Threads could be started for Vasari ships but maybe they should be balanced in other areas first? But if someone wants to start a discussion thread for those or any other ship (the Adjudicator, anyone?), that's fine. The Kol just gets the most ubiquitous trolling.

What does the Revelation need to truly terrify her enemies? in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

The Revelation is another capital ship that doesn't get enough good press. I guess the main complaint is with Guidance, and i've seen mods give Clairvoyance a secondary effect. I like Volt's idea of increasing your own culture at a planet like the DE b/c the manual says the Revelation's power "occasionally finds benign use". I haven't seen complaints about Reverie and I actually like the utlimate, Provoke Hysteria, which is the main reason to g

Reply to Ideas: How could Sins be more strategic with current game engine? in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

Based on the strikecraft suggestion it actually sounds like you're looking to make it more tactical/micro-oriented. I'm guessing make all carriers have a spawn strikecraft ability and that's the only way they can launch them, like the Skirantra's scramble bombers, but the strike craft hit really hard and fast like a missile barrage. The cooldown on the ability could mimic refueling. If you were, say looking to make a mod to do something like that,

Reply to What does the Kol need so it isn't the object of scorn. in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

It looks like the consensus is: 1. Make Adaptive Forcefield passive (with possible nerf) Edit: Seleuceia, I had forgotten your Diplo-cap mod had this. It was a good change. 2. Make GRG do something . I was actually expecting someone to say "Make it so when you build one you get 16 of them"

The Kol gets a lot of flak [e digicons]:rofl:[/e] but seriously, what does it need to reasonably keep up with the other capitals now that Rebellion is out? More AM to keep it's abilities going? Higher scaling GRG? Fuzzy dice?

I agree. Humans can compensate somewhat by turning off group jumping at just the right time but as Selecuceia pointed out, this hurts the AI's ability to keep up.

maybe see if you can find a CPU temperature monitor that will output measurements to a log that you can check after crashes, and see what the final entries are. AMD might have a CPU load tester as well.

Reply to AI factions collapsing in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

Lately, as Advent Loyalists, Hard AI's have been given me a tough time (I know AL is kinda weak but I beat unfairs in Diplomacy). I've been going up against 7 cap fleets (no frigates) and getting stomped. However, as TL last night, they seemed to do nothing. I was fairly close to my main enemy and found a titan factory at his homeworld, which I destroyed. I wonder if some AI's are trying to titan rush and getting defeated if caught off guard. Whil

Reply to [Bug] Space Ponies overrides Required Planet Bonuses in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

I like the sound of your mod, Seleucia. As it is now, I never explore planets because the average returns are minimal. I could live with your space pony bug, because, hey, space ponies. Only AI players would be at a disadvantage because they can't appreciate space ponies.

[Suggestion/Request] - Custom faction trait - Horses/wargs from cities in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

I'm not sure if this could fit into the new city mechanics coming in beta 4 but would be neat if you could create a custom faction that had the ability to create their own horse pasture or warg kennel in their cities without needing to find a tile in the world for this. I'm thinking that factions with this trait would still need to do the research to unlock the building. Call it "horselords" or "warglords" or something.

I'd feel bad to just tell you guys to improve the AI so you can be more easily swayed to buff culture as I'm sure that's no easy task.. That said, AI improvements are never something I'm against. If buffing it in a conventional way isn't feasible, is there some potential to buff it in some way that works better against humans
