I Know Nothing Of Rebellion.

*cough*sick-minded*cough*

There's not really any info other than what you have just mentioned.

There will not be a fourth race, most likely, but subsets of the 3 existing ones.

We are waiting on info ourselves.

Be patient.

Everyone TALKS like they know stuff but I am the only one that really knows...all others are liars.

Seriously...trust me.

Seriously, trust him, he has more karma, that proves that he knows.

*cough*shut up*cough*
Well he has more karma by three, I have none. And why should I trust you, last time I trusted some one I woke up in a Denny's with 1 kidney, half naked and a wolverine giving me a BJ so I don't think I will trust you. No offense, you didn't even give me info, the guy above you gave more.

Yes, you did write an amazing back story to the Vasari. Your knowledge of what the creators of Sins would have told as the past of the Vasari and your amazing vocabulary which boggles the very essence of my amazement. But your badassery still gives me no info about Rebellion. I must say though, I nearly vomited after reading your story of the past, not in disgust but in pure enjoyment and happiness that at least someone knows "big fancy words" as an uneducated would have said.

Basically this list is all we know, plus a few direct questions from the Devs themselves. It was posted on the thread it was announced on.

New features of Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion include:

• New Factions: Players decide whether to become Loyalists or Rebels, which unlocks a unique new tech tree granting them new technologies and ship variants.
• New Titan-class ships:  Massive warships for each race that dwarf capital ships, these deadly new monsters are capable of wiping out entire enemy fleets single-handedly.
• New Capital Ships:  A new capital ship class arrives, giving players new strategic options.
• New Corvette-class ships:  Small, highly maneuverable light ships that are adept at a variety of tasks.
• Loyalist and Rebel versions of some of the existing Sins’ frigates and cruisers, each with their own unique strengths and weaknesses.
• Updated lighting and particle effects for enhanced visuals.
• New Victory Conditions to allow for more variety, differing strategies and shorter game sessions.
• Additional capital ship ability levels, for greater strategic choice.
• Impulse::Reactor support for chat, friends, achievements and more.

The particle effects are the real interest of mine.

What are they going to do to them?

I'm guessing update them.

Thanks for the info.

They might take a page out of bailknight's mod if they want to improve effects.

Rebellion is really all about this kid named Luke...

i really do hope that Ironclad and stardock look at that mod

So true Sinperium

We have, but it's a bit too flashy for my taste.

Mine then?

I agree. I think they are better served as mods and not part of the base game.

I agree with that. Effects mods hurt comps that can't handle them.

I guess that's why we have you guys who create the mods bring a whole new level of enjoyment to a already great game....

Vanilla Sins effects are a bit too understated, while Bailknight's are on the other end with being too flashy. Solar Flair and Lost_WLd's works are a much better median ground, imo.

Lost_WLd?

Where? Do you have a link? I need to see what he has done...

Nevermind, just looked it up and found it, but his stuff is kinda old. Zorodius was only good at explosions and plasma, everything else looked kinda funny.

I don't think anyone has more karma than Annatar_11.

Therefore he must be the shining beacon of truth on the forums.

Actually, there are a couple of guys that have over a thousand,

• Member No.241,948
• Karma+1548

but you are right, Annatar has helped me when I first joined way back in '08....

Where did that come from? It was just kinda out of the blue.
