we need enemies!... errr, i mean Broadsides.

August 30, 2008 2:34:42 AM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

i want to make a push for a addition to sins, broadsides.

i was so extited when i played the totural and watched my capital ship turn side on to bring all guns to bare on the enemy. i was nearly as excited then as i was dissapointed to see it was pertty much only the human colony ship that did it.

i cant think of anything cooler then the idear of watching to fleets pull up beside each other fireing off as many guns as they have crammed along the sides. does anyone else agree?

Should be moddable. There must be a parameter in the ships files that says if they behave that way or not, just a matter of determining which it is and changing them all the same way.

I just thought of that

The Akkan has it main guns on the side, all the others have them on the front.

You can mod the guns to the side on all the others, but I'm not at all sure the graphics will look right after.

yeah, this would have to be a mod or a expansion, either would be good.

Ships automatically turn to bring their most powerful weapons to bear (The side with the highest DPS). Off the top of my head, the Akkan, Dunov, Sova, Progenitor, and Halcyon do that.
