Empire at War

Games are never dead for me. I reinstalled and find it really entertaining taking over the galaxy. :-D

I was thinking if getting the expansion, but, does it have a lot of new content for space fights?

Now, lets see if anyone ever visits this outer rim of the forums.

Fun game, and it does add some new ships and interest for space battles. The criminal syndicate really adds to the replay and enjoyment of the single player campaign so I woudl definitely recommend it.

Make sure to get the patches for it though, otherwise some of the expansions units are way over powered.

(There's a fair number of fun mods out for it as well to add to the replay/fun factor.)

Nah, I don't have the game installed anymore. SINS > EaW

Thank you for that... I will get the exp.

The expansion to Sins is excellent, it's also very mod friendly so you can customize the game to your liking with minimal effort.

Yes get the Expansion. I got it just for the B-Wings, but realised it has so much other great content. Mods for it are awesome too, my favourite is z3r0x's 3.5 mod. Dreadnoughts are killer.

In the regular expansion, I think the ZC are overpowered though. I can hold the map while teching with 2 Vengence, a hero, the starting Svipers and some missile turrets. IOnce you get Agressors, the game is yours since no capital ship can match them. Actually they do need support, but they as long as they dont get attacked they can dish out massive damage with their huge guns. Kedalbe battleships are very cool. They drain enemy shields for power. One good strat I find effective is to go B-Wing + Gunboat. Survives massdrivers and cuts through fighters and hardpoints. Its fast and cheap. You can heal your fleet with repair stations and run around the map harrasing mines, then attack the enemy base so you can keep the fight on their side.

Sins? Do you mean Sins of a solar empire?

I've been drooling over that game for some time ... :-)

What? People? Playing? This game?

Whatever? Why isn't there a portal for SoaSE here? Is there one I don't know about? Why am I using so many question marks?
