Sins needs 1 CD per 2 players for LAN I believe (never actually played LAN - always go ICO which needs 0 CD to play, BUT needs 1 account per person... Dark Reign did not need a CD when I used to play LAN. Of course, it may not have had any movies or anything else, so that might have been an OEM version that we used - it was so long ago I cannot fully remember ;)

Some books I read while at school could be good 1) Amtrack Wars 2) Death Gate Cycle and of course the all time favourite. Where's Wally!!! Think about it - the whole movie involves you looking out for Wally :LOL: [img]http://www.entertainmentrights.com/uploads/image_bank/asset_1594_hl.jpg[/img]

I think you answered your own question... Sins requires everyone to always have 1 enemy. You would be that 1 for all of the AIs :)... Don't bother building too much static defence (with the exception of repair bays as they are useful) - build a fleet instead and use it to hold/attack as required (repair bays very useful for holding).

The SSD you are talking about were mainly one offs as they were so big. So an ISD IS a capital ship - the SSDs are BIG captial ships :)

Yes - but IF they stop your invasion, they are going to roll you as they can build a fleet quicker due to higher econ... :) QuixotesGhost - without wanting to give away all my trade secrets - if you love this tech, you should colonise dead asteroids ;)

[quote]What i don't like about this game is that there's no front. An enemy can just fly to your home base, 10 planets in from your supposed "front" without meeting resistance. It's bullshit, to be frank. Gravity wells should be static and constant on any planets with phase lanes that connect between 2 planets owned by the same team, or same person.[/quote] That's crap - they didn't meet resistance because they went around your units. Look what happened to France in 1940 - German's did

I know of a new clan that would be willing to take on some high calibre recruits if anyone is interested... ;)

The X-Wing series. I would LOVE to see some of those space battles, especially some of the BIG ones with huge fleets. Then again, some of the ones where Rogue squadron by themselves kill/drive off cap ships would also be cool. As would some of the ground combat stuff too... Hmm - how about making it all???

Because they had a direct deal with the pirates!!! Letting people know would ruin FFA for those that play since they would know who is attacking them via pirates (could be an ally???).

I refer you to my [link="https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/318360"]post [/link] which complains about many of the things you mentioned above... Until the quit option is removed and changed to a "No Contest" option which does not record stats AND requires people to vote and accept it, people should only be able to surrender and therefore get the lose they deserve for quiting.

The ONLY thing that is unbalanced against TEC is 1.05 RA where they cannot get a fleet up as quick as Vassari. If TEC are losing to the other races, then your fleet is either too small, is lacking research upgrade or is missing certain ships from the mix. It IS possible to win with TEC in 1.05 - I have done it.

[quote]Also, the more trade ports that you have in total, the more freighters you will have, and the greater the income that you recieve from trade. [/quote] Are you sure about that??? Fairly sure it is based on number of tradeports per planet multiplied by X where X is calculated based on the length of your longest trade chain... Trade ship numbers only come into it if they are destoyed as this reduces a % of a tradeports income as the ship has been killed

The game will not end until you have killed the enemies ability to keep playing - this means remove all colonise ships (frigates/caps) and planets. Just killing their planets may not be enough to get rid of them as they can still colonise using their cap ship etc... and start to rebuild. Also note that with SP, allied AIs are not shown as defeated until their allies are also defeated. This got me the first time as I was looking for the enemies and the ally when the ally was alr
