Sins II: Dev Journal 8 - An RTS with a Changing Map

The Art of War tells us that there are five fundamental factors to war: Politics, Weather, Terrain, the Commander, and Doctrine. But the terrain has been largely static in RTS’s.

Because the orbit differs based on how far from the sun the planet is (Mercury orbits our sun much faster than Uranus), formerly cohesive empires can become scattered ov... [read more]

Sins II: Dev Journal 7 - The Argonev Starbase

Although recognized as powerful battlestations, the Argonev-class starbases began their lives as civilian structures.

Sins II: Dev Journal 6 - The Dunov Battlecruiser

The Dunov Battlecruiser - from its humble beginnings as a simple cargo carrier for the Trade Order, the Dunov has secured an impressive war record for the TEC. Originally starting its design life as a heavy cargo carrier, the Dunov class plied the trade routes between members of the old Trade Order for centuries. With the creation of the TEC, the Dunov’s heavy frame was modified into a versatile support ship. The vessel’s heavy armor was augmented with a modicum of weapons and a number of u... [read more]
