Ten millennia have passed since you and the few survivors of the once mighty Vasari Empire fled from an unknown threat that all but exterminated your kind. You now find yourself at the fringe of the galaxy in a sector occupied by a pathetically primitive species - one obsessed with trade and lacking any central organization or military technology. Calling themselves the Trader Emergency Coalition, they would have been ideal slaves in the glorious days of the past, but time is of the essence. Use your mastery of phase-space manipulation, gravity and nanotechnology to quickly eliminate any local resistance and acquire the necessary resources to fuel the next segment of your continuing exodus.Features:- Take command of 1 of 3 space-faring races as you work to establish domination of the galaxy.

Game is nice, but there is no single player campaign. That means only skirmish mode. What a disappointment that is. Why bother with all the story line writeup, when in fact, there is no story to be played out in the game. It is all meaningless in that sense. Very dissapointing in this regard. This is a case of the managment team blowing it.
Hail Flavius.

hours of play with interesting strategy and great tech tree. Can turn into a bit of a frustrating war of attrition on the really big maps though. There will soon be micro expansions available with the first one adding space stations that looks like it will add some real replayability All in all it's well worth the money.

A real time strategy developed by Stardock Studios, the makers of Galactic Civilizations, "Sins of a Solar Empire" combines the space warfare of Homeworld and the development and management of Civilizations without really committing to either.
In SoaSE, you can play as one of three races: humanity, the psionic Advent, and the technologically advanced Vasari. All three races share the same basic gameplay, though there are some differences in units and technologies. The basic gameplay ... Read More

Talk about a re-hash. It reads like Freelancer (good) but leaves out the role play of DarkStar (an even better game). Using Icons that could be done with a re-mapped character set, coupled with mind-numbing tedium of implementation, I'd would have gladly paid the $18 Ebay fee to NOT realize that the "Four Star" ratings and reviews were just well disguised media hype by the publishers.
There was a public domain game called Starship...something back in the late '80s that had better AI, playability ... Read More

You would do yourself a favor to buy this excellent title. It is *bar none* the best space RTS game out. At first, it seems a bit complex, but you quickly find that it it is worth the effort. The AI is excellent, and I have only played online with friends, but we have had a great time.
Take the chance. :)
