( Sins of a Solar Empire is released without copy protection, which means you can play the game without having to have the DVD in the drive!) The Sins of a Solar Empire game package includes an 80-page game manual and a fold-out keyboard reference card. In-game tutorials help to bring new players up to speed. However, the TEC face an even greater problem: An ancient race, which was exiled from the planets by the TEC's ancestors, has run out of resources and is now planning to seek revenge on the TEC by using devastating weapons to take back its home world.
Although initially caught offguard by the Vasari, the TEC was able to quickly mobilize its considerable resources to keep the Vasari at bay. Promoted as a RT4X (Real-Time, eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, eXterminate) game, Sins of a Solar Empire successfully combines elements from both turn-based 4X and real-time strategy genres.Īfter having spent over a thousand years in relative peace and prosperity, the Trader Emergency Coalition (TEC) are suddenly faced with the arrival of the aggressive Vasari Empire. Sins of a Solar Empire is a sci-fi adventure from the publishers of the wildly popular Galactic Civilizations series.
