Reply to more effective scouting in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

[size="3"][/size] i agree that when you are fighting on 2-3 fronts that it is hard to micro manage 2-5 scouts and consentrate on the battle. i know the AI micro manages and tht often it uses the javelins to scout - this is something the computor was built for in the first place. i agree it would be nice if there was an up grade that would allow them to stop at a safe place where there were no enemy ships - like a dead astroid / astoid belt / gas giant / space junk if they were at 50% or lower in

Reply to planetary defense.....defense platforms or hangars?? in Strategy Sins Forums

[size="3"][/size]i have found that in this asin most things concerning the game it is not an either or but a balance of many. you need phase jump inhibitors - i also like a couple of planet shield gens - a couple of hanners - 2-3 repairstaions so that they cover most everything and each other when possibl then i ring the planet with defense platforms over laping them so that each platform can help defend another 1-2 others. it will take a while for an enemy fleet to cut thru this and by that tim

[size="3"][/size]i play mostly tec and i get the akkan as the free cap ship for a number of reasons - it does colonize before all the other enemy ships and defence things are destoryed - after it up grades to colony 2 it starts to give you free extractors which saves cash. the ion bolt feacture is really great and the targeting feature. i usually hook it up with the kol. i have found that i can have 2 kols and 1-2 akkans with a few kodiack and HR cruisers a few javlins lrm and win against larger

Reply to what do you expect for 1.1version in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

[size="3"]i would like to see a way to select the back ground color - i really dislike some of the shades that currently pop up as they are hard to look at for very long. i would like to see the AI more responce to your directions and requests when you partner with them. i've seen an AI partner sit on just 4-6 planets in a star system that had 30 planets and get wiped out. it would not colonize. also there has been times when it had huge amounts of either metal, crystal or $$ and i was

allowing a team mate to build something in your world would wrk if you had to ok it first - i like the idea that a partner who was playing vasari could build a phase gate there. that would help out in over all defense and even offense. for example youcap a world in an eenmy star system then they could put a phase gate there and save the expense of caping a planet to do so. or make certain things like phase gates and trade ports team assets instead of personal that the whole team would b
