Sacrifice of Angels 2 is intended to be a homage, and tribute to the original Sacrifice of Angels mod for Homeworld. It is a continuation of that mod. It will use many of the same models, and effects created for that mod by the Trekmods team. Along with new content. SoA 2 is being developed by the remaining members of the Trekmods team. Along with Digital Underground (The makers of bridge commanders MPMP mod, and Nexus: The Jupiter Incident's ST: Age of War mod). Plus Third Party contributions by the finest artist from the Star Trek modding community.

The original SoA mod for Homeworld, was set during the First Dominion War. Using both canon, and non-canon units to recreate those battles.

SoA 2 uses  SotSE's  "Empire Building" mechanic to enhance your Star Trek experience.


(Note: SoA 2 lore is subject to change. it is still a WIP )

The time line for SoA 2 is set in the 2380's. The Dominion broke the cease fire treaty, and stormed through the wormhole with a vengeance. Reconquering Cardassia, and Bajor. They launched a three pronged assault on the three major Alpha Quadrant powers. Just as before the founders are intent on total domination of "the solids". This time there may be no stopping them.
 
The Breen went out of thier way to join their old allies, and spearheaded the initial assault with hundreds of cruisers warping in just as the Dominion main assault fleets exited the wormhole. Deep Space Nine despite her powerfull upgrades was destroyed in minutes. The wormhole is now under total Dominion control. With endless re-enforcements pouring through. Cardassia, and Bajor are now enslaved worlds. The Cardassians that survived are used by the Dominion as "battle thralls" as punishment for their past resistance. All Cardassian ships in Dominion fleets seek to mutiny, and break away from thier masters. They seek refuge in ether Federation, or the Klingon space.

The three major Alpha Quadrant powers, The Federation, The Klingon Empire, and The Romulan Star Empire can withstand the new Dominion assaults on thier own. Thier relations strained by ether subterfuge, or the belief that only they can win the Second Dominion War by themselves. All three empires are holding the line....for now. Two of the empires will not stop with the Dominion if they are victorious.

Meanwhile.... As four major empires are fighting for survival, control, or domination.. Transwarp signatures are detected. The Borg have returned. The transwarp network was not destroyed as previously thought. Only damaged. The Borg Collective has deemed the Alpha Quadrant species the most serious threat to their existance. They attack not with just a few ships, but with the force of the entire collective. Worlds fall in minutes. Then all are exterminated. Assimilation is irrelivent. All must be annihilated if the collective is to survive.... Resistance is futile. The Known galaxy is now in a state of Total War...



As with SoA1 you can fight battles in SoA2 using hundreds of Star Ships. Sometimes thousands "if" your computer can handle it!!

The playable factions of SoA 2 will be

The United Federation of Planets
The  Klingon Empire
The Romulan Star Empire
The Dominion
(with Cardassian battle thralls, and Breen allies)

 The Borg Collective.

Not all factions will be playable just yet.. They will be added as the mod progresses

SoA 2 0.4E for SOASE: Entrenchment is in closed beta.

V-11 Bright One, Winged Defender, and Valdore

We are currently working on the SoA 2 0.4E for Entrenchment. It currently is in closed beta. SoA 2 0.4E will only be released for SOTSE: Entrenchment version 1.041+.


The mod is no longer a series of demos, It is now a full blown total conversion of Sins of a Solar Empire. Just as the original SoA mod was to Homeworld. Updates may take a very long time due to the sheer amount of work involved with each new sins patch.

Check here for up to date news about SoA 2  Forums.sinsofasolarempire.com

We have come a long way since SoA 2 0.03c. We now have an Entrenchment release of the mod, and the team is currently working on the next update.

The Latest version of the mod is SoA 2 0.3e102 for SotSE: Entrenchment version 1.041

To install the mod create a new folder called "SoA 2" where you install the mods.
For Windows XP users:
C:\Documents and Settings\"your user name" \local settings\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a solar Empire\Mods-Entrenchment v1.041

For Vista, and Windows 7 users
C:\Users\"your user name"\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods-Entrenchment v1.041

Then open the rar file to show the folders Galaxy, Gamedata, Textures Meshes, etc. etc. Then select all, and drag all contents into your newly created SoA 2 folder. Run entrenchment, and go to Options\Mods. You should see "SoA 2" on the list... Enable the mod.

The readme has been updated.

You can use Harpo9999's mod updater tools to convert the older SoA 2 0.03c release to Sins 1.181
Do this at your own risk. We do not support older versions of SoA 2.

Just some quick feedback.

Great mod really enjoying it so far and can see this becoming a great mod once its finished.

Some small feedback from the new version 3b. Loving the dominion ships but unfortunatly some of them do not seem to balanced. Probably something that was over looked, example, enslaver really expensive but the cost doesnt reflect the stats it has, sheild are a bit weak and doesnt seem to pack much of a punch. The next cap down the the devistator i think, has really low shields think it was 15-1800 something around them lines and died really quickly, one thing i noticed about the romulan valdor is that its become really powerful and on its own can take out the doms most powerful ship and a few smaller bug and cardy galors on its own.

seems to be a more frequent problem with the mini dump issue, after around 15 min play time crashes.

Its possible due to stress releasing due to real life issues that it was probably over looked. hope my feedback helps, if i have any more will let you know.

hey so i have not had any mini dumps on the one ive got, it could have been one of the changes i made with the pirates, to let them know all i did was kept the orignal pirate format for the base with the ships listed and just copied and pasted the borg ship info into the pirate ships, in effect replacing the pirate ship with a borg, u may be getting mini dumps from the map u are using as well, have u tried to use a diffrent map?

@Overthrow, ur modifies sounds really good.
U wrote u cut the dmg by 1/2, did u let the shields by 100% or cut their strengh too ?
Would be nice if not, because the ships still dies a little too fast for my taste.
Are there any location where i can dl ur modification to test out a little ?
