[quote]In Rebellion, diplomacy revolved around trying to convert planets to your side ( failing continuously in the process), maintaining loyalty on planets, having planets get mad at you for invading/bombarding other worlds (really) and....That was it actually. At least that's what I vaguely remember.[/quote] Actually, other planets would only get mad at you if your military actions caused civilian causalities.

[quote]I have to honestly ask, what would those be?[/quote] Character units, for one. Simply adding in characters can substantially increase different game mechanic interactions. Additionally, it would be nice to have ground troops (in an abstract manner, not actual ground combat). And moreover, it would be nice if battle outcomes could affect planet's allegiances.

Hey, some of us enjoy complicated games ;) I can accept those failures for the easy missions; some variability is needed.

Rebellion is a great game, a game without the honor and praise that it deserves. The game might not have had fancy graphics but the core mechanics were there that made the game great. You were able to constantly use espionage to sabotage enemy installations, determine the location of enemy forces, spy on your own planets to see if you were being attacked or if there were covert units on your planet; you could could deploy massive fleets and you had to properly coordinate different fleets so that

I was wondering if the modders are taking into consideration future expansions. From the tidbits that the gaming news outlets have revealed, it seems like the expansion will offer significant changes from the current game (i.e star bases).

Currently, a player's capital planet offers no major bonuses other than allegiance and tax collection. There really ought to be more that affects capital planets; is there an incentive to attack it? Attacking a player's capital planet ought to demoralize the enemy, it ought to shake up the confidence (allegiance) that the various planets under the enemy player has in him/her. So my proposal would be to make capital planets actually worthwhile beyond what the game currently makes the

One thing that I wish to reiterate is that the game needs a better diplomacy system. I would like a better reason to go to war with one of my neighbors other than to expand my empire. I want to feel insulted, I want to feel desperate. To add to this, there should be greater options in the diplomacy menu to allow you to better interact with your AI counterparts. Moreover, I also feel that by adding in more resources, such as strategic metals or some other strategic resource, it would add a new d

May I also add that it would be nice if there could be characters in game, say, two dozen characters per side. It would be nice if I could have proper captains for my capital ships, proper admirals for my fleets and governors. It would also be nice to have leadership characters, politicians, research specialists, etc. The game is great but it could be so much better!!

I would like: 1) campaign mode/story line 2) additional races 3) moons 4) planetary based defenses (i.e. ground based laser cannons) 5) ship formations 6) a true 3 dimensional battlefield 7) larger gravity fields 8) better diplomacy systems (request aid, allow transit through territory, etc.) 9) better allegiance system (i.e. military victories/losses translate into political gains, increasing allegiance; abandoning planets militarily should result in dec

One of my biggest desires is to be able to slow the travel speed between planets to give the game a more strategic feel to it. As it is right now, the star systems in Sins is ideally placed to become a sector, if you could only get rid of those suns. Looking forward to this mod! Its one of the reasons why I bought this game. :)
