Highlights from Friday Night Game Night!

Battles across the world!

February 25, 2008 4:53:43 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

This past Friday we had our first of many Game Nights. That's where Stardock and Ironclad got on Ironclad Online and participated in games with players from around the world. Good times.

I played in 4 games on Friday right up until the morning sunshine started to creep in.  Here are some screenshots and commentary:

2008-02-24_18092008-02-24_1814

We'll be doing another Game Night soon. Of course, you don't need us to get together and play on-line.  And we were pleased to see a lot of players online helping show new players how to play the game. One of the nice things about the Sins community is that players do try to help one another out to have as much fun as possible even while trying to kill them.

tactics matter a lot, you know what matters more? significantly outnumbering your enemy

Nice annotated screenshots. Quick question: How do you get the fleet view to collapse ships in groups of 10 by frigate / cruiser type??

Click the little Stack button above the empire tree.  It looks like a stack of yellow cards.

My goodness, do all of you have nothing better to do on Friday night than play Sins? I mean, go get a date with some pretty girl, for crying out loud!

Each to his own, I guess.

In reality they didn't actually outnumber each other.

Kodiaks take more supply cap, therefore their fleets were probably roughtly the same size.

But I like the strategy employed, it would be harder to pull of in a smaller space though.

yes beacuse play a game you enjoy for a few hours on one night of the week must mean you can't have a balanced life with freinds, girls, other hobbies, jobs, interests... oh wait... i do and some how i can play sins or tf2 or any other number of games that i enjoy at some point during the week... how utterly shocking.

As it is thanks for the screens i picked up a few tips i might try

That's ah, uh, rather significant fighting force. That's enough to scare me off from ever playing online!

I notice you have the EXACT same resources in the last two pictures. shouldn't that be technically impossible since the resources are constantly updating?
