AI strategy loop-hole in Strategy Sins Forums

Well, i finished my first rebellion match against a random vassari and advent rebel. I palyed as TEC rebel. My analysis is that AIs should be flexible and able to exploit weaknesses of the opponnent. Right now it does not seem to k I alleid with advent to finish the vassari and then the alliance broke off. My opponent advent ai player was busy in finishing the lingering vassari titan and homeworld. The attempt was always fruitless but it was locked in that strategy. <br

Sins future in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

In the start, we had only cap-ships competition. Then SB came to make turtling easy. Titan really put turtling the norm of late-game scenario.In a game as TEC, vasari and advent rebels. I had to form an alliance with advent to defeat vassari. Now as turtling seems to create a stalemate The real question is what comes next in sins. Cap-ship+Fleet->Cap-ship+SB+Fleet->Cap-ship+SB+Fleet+Titan->Cap-Ship+SB(Phase-Jump)+Fleet+Titan+?????????

Automating rotate camera in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I wait for two fleets clashing up and then follow the fighter or bomber camera to enjoy the epic fight. The problem is that when the strike craft changes face(reverses) for another bombing run, the camera has to be manually rotated too in order to keep the look on epic fight. Is there a way that the camera view always faces the nose of SC or ship.

disable Pirates upgrades in Sins Modding Sins Forums

I installed a mod having changed sins game-info files having pirates with their research files deleted. I started the mod with an already existing sins diplomacy 1.00. The pirates still have their upgraded armor and hp, kicking ass of my fully upgraded star base and planet. Now there are two possibilities. 1. Once a game is started, one cannot change pirate behavior or anything else. The files are stored in memory. 2. I am missing some cruical file that affects pirates

Does sins require a CAMPAIGN? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I have been playing sins diplomacy and c&c Kane along with each other. I can say one thing for sure. Whatever sins requires whether improved ai, new ships or Blah blah. It certainly does not require a campaign. Here are the reasons, why. 1. Both C&C and sins start with few units. 2.In c&c one can colonize new tiberium fields and start new structures. But your entire battle group along with enemy is cramped in one small map. While, in sins

Age of Empires 3 feature a shipments system involving Home city. It runs parallel to vasari armada. Why can't TEC and Advent have the option to call for reinforcements and not just random reinforcement but chosen to suite your need. In Aoe3 when gain xp, players can call for shipment. Shipment is trade resources, technologies or units sent to you just like dark armada. Players are given deck cards that can be customized according to shipment. http://aoe3.heavengames.com/ga

Adding Peace elements to Sins in Sins Modding Sins Forums

So far sins is all about fighting. I have a suggestion to add a civilian structure. Each planet under your command can give you a mission to protect a spawned trade or civilian convoys to be escorted to some other Star base/Civilian or Military Structures (Heck could be Engineers repairing Gauss Cannons). Each convoy will be then escorted by your ships to be protected by pirate raids or Enemy ships. It is like a particular planet giving the home-world a mission and in case of failure/

Reply to Sins pirate balance mod in Sins Modding Sins Forums

The pirate raids would be harder but that would solve the dumb ai problem very much. Star base create an imbalance between ai and human player. So the pirates may act as a balancing factor. By the way, two groups of few missile frigates and Light Frigates will make short work of Orgovs and Krosovs. It just means that you cannot leave cruical star bases alone.

Reply to Sins pirate balance mod in Sins Modding Sins Forums

My idea is to simply make pirates effective, not dangerous or lame. In this way a pirate base can be left alone to making raids that are just annoying. Pirate Rogues and Cutthroats just charge suicidally to star base just like ai, while my raid will concentrate on prime targets (Star base, Other Structures, Strike Crafts and Planet itself) only from a suitable distance. My proposed raid will only consist of Armored Pirate Flaks, Pirate Krosov and Pirate Orgovs havi

Sins pirate balance mod in Sins Modding Sins Forums

There are two main problems in sins entrechment and diplomacy. 1. The pirates are either too weak(Entrechment) or insanely strong (Diplomacy). 2. The ai does not know to counter starbase smartly according to some posts. I have an idea that can answer both problems. A mod that 1. It stops the insane upgrade pirates used to have in diplomacy. 2. Pirate fleet should be mainly composed of three type of units only . (i).Pirate pillagers. (ii). Units Sieging starbase (Orguv Torp

Making ai smarter in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Here is a way, we can make all the cap ships avoid the starabse by setting "Cannot attack structures" on all cap ships and cruisers. In this way, cap ships will always concentrate on the fleet attacking your antistarbase module (Orgov(TEC), Starfish(Advent) and Kanarak Assailents (Vasari,by giving it the range of Orguvs)). Concentrating fire on starbase would help little in any situation. But destroying the fleet protecting the starbase would give assault frigates a fighting chance.
