Skirmish mode!

from Sins Forums
Skirmish mode for multiplayer would be great! I'm sure I'm not the first to bring it up but after a quick skim of the boards I didn't see any posts on the topic so I thought I'd bring it up. A nice quick and easy multiplayer mode where each player gets a set amount of points to build a fleet and then you just have at it, either at a planet or in open space. Are there any plans for something like this in a future patch? It would be a great option for when you got a Sins fix but don't want to spend 3 or 4 hours online in a standard game. You could even use it in single player mode for practicing battle tactics without having to start a game.

Hmmm yeah I could see this happening. Like start you off on a really small map with say 10000 of each resource or something. You could chose whether you had different stages of research so like 1st tier 2nd and so on. Then people would just build and build and try to conquer a set number of planets first. That's so people aren't hiding at their base just building a huge fleet. Whoever gets say 3 planets first wins.

Actually now that I think about it you could make a scenario just like this in the galaxy forge by creating just 2 planets and then presetting the units for those planets. You can also preset their starting resources as well. Too bad you can't preset starting tech researched but oh well.
