The first time I actually played Sins of a Solar Empire, was when I downloaded this mod. Just to try it out and see the difference of the game. All you guys are doing an amazing job. I know my lowly status doesn't mean much. I'm not much of a modder but I do enjoy this game. I'm a huge fan of the halo games and books and basically the entire sci-fi genre.

So a wee bit about myself. As a gamer I have always been attracted to the first person shooters, Halo especially, but lately been working my way to strategy. The military allows you to have one game on your computer, and before I was deployed I chose your guys game. And I got to say I made an excellent choice. When I can, I play at least 12 hrs a week. I'm still playing with kid gloves trying to get used to all the features this game has but just wanted to say keep up the good work and you definitely made me a fan of this game over night.

This is goddamn inspiring. Canada will love this, being a Hawaiian from a military family.

All great to hear. Welcome to the forums!

That you are a legit Halo fan coming to our mod makes your opinion very valuable to us. Your status is high here, Marine. This mod is being made just for you and others like you, like most of us on the team, Halo fans. The praise of Halo fans for a Halo mod is the ultimate thank you. We'll be releasing a patch for the mod here pretty soon, and I hope you're able to download that in your current location. Please be sure to give us any critique you have, as we're always striving to improve the mod.

Also as an aside, Canadaman7, the mod founder, is a Navy brat and I myself served in the Air Force, so military members are very welcome on these forums.

Thank you sir, if its the next few months then I will be able to download it but after that I will be deploying again. I still have that itch where I can't stay stateside for long not while I got marines dying in a hell hole

Good to have you on the forums, marine. You stationed in Kaneohe?

The military allows you to have one game on your computer, and before I was deployed I chose your guys game. And I got to say I made an excellent choice.

Brings a single tear of freedom to the ol'e eye.

Yes sir but right now on a ship we are doing some training. As much as I like to train the only tours I have done were in Afghanistan and Iraq and so far I have not done an amphibious assault in either country unless you count the swimming pool incident. But thank you for having me sir
