The mod, enjoy. Any feedback would be appreciated after u played at least 2 full matches all the way threw on the hardest diffculty. Best to play against reshearchers.
KOG's LawAKA Drison's Law aka Overthrow's LawThis mod has been around since the begining of the game. Drison and myself wanted to make some changes to reduce lag in the orignal game and make it more exciting. Lag is no longer an issue with the updates and changes the game creators have made, but we still left the changes in because it made the game a little more fun. Here is a list of changes.Hangar Defense have been removed as well as ligth carries, this was orignaly done to cut down on lag but we found later that it made carriers worth something.Pirates have been super buffed, just wait tell u get hit with a big wave.Planets have been changed a little and asteroids recived a buff of how many roids it had.Tec mines where removed, advent still get them but they spawn off of carriers and stations, the ai still does not use them, but it makes it fun for the player.Oribtal cannons have been removed, dont ask why, there are to many reasons.The amount of capitols you can build has been increased.Tec rebels no longer can make an alliance with pirates but can now build two stations. With the changes to the pirates it made the rebels to op.Stations now have 10 upgrade points. They can also shot the gravity well, same with repair platforms and inhibitors.Before you start complaining about balance or other things, give the mod a try, this is designed for friends to play against the ai or just face wave after wave of pirate ships. Enjoy. Thanx goes to kog, drison, divercity and cataire. Thanx for your help guys.Install in the mod folder in Documents\my games\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire Rebellion and the maps go in the galaxy forge folder.
i downloaded this mod.. i liked it. no noticable bugs... then the pirates came.... every time i started a game with them turned on... They. Are. Over. Powered!.
i mean common!! seriously. 12 or 13 cap ships just raping you in the begining!! NOT cool..
sorry. but i just rage quit every time i acidentaly left them on and i got really annoyed. now. i would understand if you put 3 or even 5 cap ships in the begining. but the current setting is just retarded! 3 or 5 cap ships would just be enough to stress a player and make him or her go on overdrive with defences..
and now for the good things.. well except for the pirates. everything is good. i actually play with this mod enabled all the time. BUT if i ever forget to turn pirates of then i just rage..
Heya thought I'd give some feedback on the mod.
First of all it's a great Mod! Love the higher cap limit, personally I just prefer spamming cap ships rather than making a fleet, so ideal for me. :P Also love the fact there's no strike craft cruisers/carriers, makes the AI build other ships rather than spamming the crap outa them. Lastly the higher number of resource asteroids is great for promoting combat and research without having to worry all the time about conquering new planets for the resources etc.
However there was a few slight issues I did notice. As mentioned by "willyTHERAVAGER" (what a name haha) the pirates are very over powered, i played against 5 hard Ai's and the early waves of pirates eradicated each faction everytime they had the highest bounty. It came to my turn and they appeared with over 10 cap ships complete with shields, and this was like the 3rd wave of pirates. Instant loss. A possible suggestion would be to lower the cap ship numbers in the early stages of the game, so they gain in number as usual the longer the game progresses; I like the challenge of having a hard pirate faction to beat, but unless you have the credits to fend them off, your gunna get pwned real hard, and unfairly.
Also! I couldn't help but notice when i played as either vasari faction they started with no tactical structures ( i.e cap ship foundry etc) and the normal amount of credits, where as the other factions always had these starting structures. ( Yes I did have quick start on, and I did test the same map with the advent and TEC who did recieve the structures.) Just wondering if this is an issue or intentional?
ANYHOOO despite these small issues, it's a very good Mod, and I leave it on all the time now :P Much better than the vanilla IMO!
