For posting an off-topic like this I would have to say you're banned! However, the last person to post here might change my mind (unless it is a moderator). Maybe a 3 word story would help or I might make a wish. But come on... this is really just a tug of war. I would think about giving you karma pbhead, but I just blame you for the post.

Reply to Adding level system to standard unit in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Frigates cannot level up per say. The purpose of the hasLevels, hasBombingLevels and hasWeaponLevels on the Frigate Entity type is to allow Capital Ships to spawn frigates with up to three levels of stats. I'm personally not aware of anyway to utilize these settings outside of spawning a frigate from a capital ship ability. For reference see: FrigateCombatTurret.entity FrigateSiegeTurret.entity AbilityDeployCombatTurret.entity AbilityDeploySiegeTurret.entity</

Reply to Research Structures in Strategy Sins Forums

Here's any easy way to generalize it. If you need to build it, then you need the labs. This includes Frigate and Planet Modules with Research Access requirements. With Entrenchment there a few odd ball research subjects that don't follow this guideline. Although, Frigate Access: All frigates requiring research must have labs to build Planet Module Access: All modules requiring research must have labs to build Ability Access: Vasari Deploy Star Base and Gauss

Reply to Has anyone ever beaten Cruel AI in 1v1? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I played a 1v1 against a cruel AI today Advent (me) against Vasari (took a while because I did it inbetween work pausing every now and then and can't say I was real efficient as a result, but...). To say the AI glady sacrificed himself against star bases would be an understatement. The AI when we first met had a huge fleet and could have simply passed my star base and entered my core worlds. Instead it went against a star base with meteor storm and Induced Reverence... over... and over again

In multi-player games do you guys tend to start with a colonizer capital ship or use the colony frigate? [/quote] This question really depends on map size, number of players and player preference. Starting with a colony capital ship is the best way for increasing the speed of colonization as the anti-matter regeneration is much better than a colony frigate. Howeve

Reply to I'm Brand New - Will be looking to play online in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

The easist way to get a game going is to start a conversation with someone. Find out if they will help you out, do a comp stomp, etc. Also, please get the expansions. It's just not as much fun playing vanilla sins online. I'll join with new people on vanilla occasionally but I'm just reminded how much better the expansions are.

Reply to Expanding and Economy. How do you guys handle it? in Strategy Sins Forums

On a side note, when you are clearing militia with a Capital ship bear in mind that they basically can target 3-4 frigates at a time. This however requires you to position your Capital ship to get the max number of targets fired upon. For example positioning your Akkan in the middle of the militia allows the front, rear and side weapons to fire at different targets. Tired of you ships attacking the wrong target? Hold shift while your unit(s) is selected and right click on the targets
