Sins of a Solar Empire is a real-time space strategy and the first chapter in an epic science fiction saga. The independent Trader Worlds must unite and form the Trader Emergency Coalition to defend themselves against the return of their exiled brethren, "The Advent" and the arrival of the desperate remnants of the ancient Vasari Empire. Explore and conquer nearby planets and distant solar systems by applying brute force, cunning strategy, elegant diplomacy, economic mastery, and researched technology. The gameplay features seamless transition between epic strategy and tactical combat modes.
Just a generally awesome game. Out of all of these 4X strategies (and every other type of game), Sins of a Solar Empire really is at the top, including their rebellion expansion.Graphics great, single and multi player amazing and the sheer amount of options available. The mods available have really made it amazing, especially Sins of the Prophets, which is probably the best mod I have ever seen
