Its called counter attacking...why would anyone want to attack you knowing you are ready for their attack and you are at your strongest?

You need to keep tabs and have intel on the important sectors. The enemy does the same thats how they can attack a sector that you are not in...

Thats why you should continue to build scouts if not you should use one of your frigates to scout it out.

Then you should have enough resources to just spam the enemy to death, loosing a planet does not mean much when you are taking over 20.

I do not understand what you say that by creating too many fleet your fleet number will become very small.

Have you ever played chess, you should sacrifice as small pawn for the good of your entire galaxy.

I think he mean the size of each of his small group of ships.

If he divide this fleet too much,the numbers of ships in each group is too little.

Ahh then do not divide them into somany groups. One of the biggest military mistake is spreading the forces too thin and not enough supplies in this case too far from reinforcements.

I usually have 2 fleets,one for offence and one for defence.

But damn against com last night, they have a full fleet cap armada against mine, but com turned away, and so I continued to take its plannets.

BTW anyone found out that this game only takes up to 1.5 gigs of ram and it starts to lag even though you have 2 gigs.

I still think i should upgrade my com back to XP.

Vista too laggy adi.

Mine also not very smooth ler, sometimes zoom in abit only also lag liao. When exiting the game after few hours play also lag quite some time. 

ohh you mean the planet trees?

I f ind myself playing this game from the zoomed out view almost the whole time
Meaning i don't see graphics.. only icons haha

Whats BGM?

I find it still good with those orchestral music,especially the main menu music.It feels epic and if they put electonics music,it just spoil the mood.

I was hoping that Jeremy Soule is the one actually make the music.

I hate epic war on my com it just lags it, but some how it still manage after hanging for a while.

Heh strange Ive never liked TEC Im always a Vasari person though I tried Advent recenly but not TEC should try them out some time, but never interested.
Time to play too.     

Anyone played this on a notebook? anygood? inputs? or bul!shit? going to buy new lappie soon.. but duno if can support or not.

Yeah,entrenchment needs to be purchase separately.

Are you buying?

I think the problem with Sins is late game.It suxs a lot in late game as the whole game just involve big fleets running around.

Hope the expansion will fix this.

Its not about fleet formation. Its about combined arms. Fleet cohesion is an important attribute that can be vital against other human player and you can use this as a advantage against the AI.

BTW Ironclad is becoming like Valve I've been waiting forever for 1.1...but i suppose as 7 people dev team...they would be streched on hr to test 1.1

I hear its on its final stretch and should be out soon...I know i have heard that before...but I'm hopeful.

No,i find the game kinda sux in late game as early game defence is too weak to defend against anything.

In the end,just fleets jumping here and there.

Its boring.

Yeah,i usually leave a few small fleet at fringe planets lead by a noob cap ship.

Just to have something to delay the attack by a bit before the main force comes.
