Sins: Diplomacy Pre-Orders Begin

External Link
September 15, 2009 2:25:30 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

Ironclad Games and Stardock Entertainment are pleased to announce pre-orders for the upcoming Sins of a Solar Empire micro-expansion, Diplomacy. After 25 years of war, some elements of the TEC, Vasari and Advent have grown weary of conflict and desperately seek a respite. The decision is made to attempt peaceful negotiations to end the wars, but others view this new effort at diplomacy as the perfect means to destroy their enemies from within.

Sins of a Solar Empire: Diplomacy will add a new Diplomacy tech tree, new envoy cruisers, the ability to issue missions to other players, trade pacts, an entirely new relationship system, deadlier pirates and more.

Pre-orders for Sins of a Solar Empire: Diplomacy are available now for $9.95. This micro-expansion will require the full versions of Sins of a Solar Empire and Sins of a Solar Empire: Entrenchment to play. To pre-order, just head over to the Store.

W00t.

No caps for pirates, as that doesn't fit in with the universe. They'll be getting an overhaul, though....just you wait and see. *evil grin*

Excellent news. I will go preorder now. Good job guys.

 

PS keep supporting the game. If possible I would like a better online system where you can see how skilled the person you are up against is. Like ranks or something. I think if you redesigned ICO it would really help online gameplay in getting more popular. I used to play Age of Empires 3 a lot before and I think a system like that would work here nicely. Well that just my thoughts anyway. Still preordering, as I think you guys have the price spot on for the expansion and have designed a great game. Would love if you improved and added stuff to the online side of things though

I won't be preordering ... until later this evening, but it looks good!

Quite frankly, the better pirates is very nice, but the missions will give me more of a reason to play with unlocked teams on single player.  I didn't really care for the mission system too much before because it wasn't equitable, but I think this will make a world of difference and give the game some new legs.  Add the Envoy cruisers in for good measure, and you're looking at pretty darn good micro expansion.

Sweet. Now pirates won't just be "free xp"

I'd like to see a VO too (instead of text, it'd be funny but probably isn't happening. The only thing funnier than reading "Avast  ye space rats!" would be hearing it)

Hey, guys. Guess who's back!

Anyway, I would've been on all summer, but my dad had to re-boot the computor b4 he left for overseas, so now the computor hardly works at all. *sigh* And I think the spare computor has a virus becuz everytime I go to a page it says that it's a "phishing" website! Google, wiki, here, you name it.

Anyway, so Defense and Diplomacy, huh? The last one will either be Doom (as in, the end of the war) or Arrival (as in, the enemy of the Vasari arriving, and the factions being forced to work together in order to fight it off).

I'll be sure to get Diplomacy once I get my comp. up and running!

I would *like* to preorder but when I head over to the store or go into impulse there is no "buy" link for the Diplomacy beta. The links are there for Sins / Entrenchment etc. What am I doing wrong?

Edit: Ok done now - I worked out how to do it through Impulse.

I think you are intrepeting wrong. I think what it means by no cap mean the supply cap for pirates
