Thanks for all the info! But yeah I will be playing mostly SP in the mean time.

Thanks! Hopefully in a couple days I'll get better and share a replay that isn't too cringe worthy. Is it better to learn on small maps?
Are they on the scale of the shenanigans like the other 4X I played?

Does stellar phenomena have positive anomalies?

Armor: Reduces incoming damage, higher armor has diminishing returns. C
So far I got sins yesterday I like it so far. However I have a feeling it will take me a while to really latch onto the game. Either it's me ot the games' but it seems like every RTS I play has a learning cliff. The other RTS's and 4X games I have played are Starcraft II and Endless space. Not so good in SC but I do pretty well in ES. Would any skill from those games translate over to sins? One thing I don't like about sins is its lame tutorial <a href="http
