Postby RogueZephyr » Thu Sep 25, 2014 2:38 pm

I haven't seen anything since Space Empires V that makes me want to buy it
-I fly the ocean black, and my little ship goes warp 10-
-Theres nothing that we lack (unless theres something we've forgotten)-

I have to admit I had to google that. Never was much into strategy games, be them real-time or turn based. No matter which setting. Looks like not too many here have played it either, doesn't it?

Ever played Sins of a Solar Empire?
The game is awesome. And the mods are even more..what setting do you want? Mass effect? Star Trek? Halo universe? Stargate? Mods give it to you =)

Sins of a solar empire is my regular Monday night game, me and a buddy just do comp stomps, us vs them, we have TS running and just chat and play, cant recommend the game enough. if anyone is interested in joining us for a regular Monday night gaming then let me know, its always from 9:30pm to about 12:30 ish. sometime we may have a quick game of Supreme commander, but the good thing about sins is that you can save the game as sometimes our game will run over 3 separate Mondays.
