So what can we expect in the next expansion?

I apologize in advance to developers for asking so early!

from Sins Forums

Okay, SOASE is definitely my favorite online game of all time.  The original was great and Entrenchment has just made it even better....

I know it is almost cruel to ask about the next installment so soon but I salivating over further improvements and functions for the game!

Any chance of a teaser of the next expansion or at least an idea of its overall conceptual contribution to the game?

I apologize but when you make something this good, giving us so much faith in what you are doing, one can't help but be curious and excited!

Well said!

From what has been said in interviews, IronClad is basically tearing out the diplo system as we know it and starting from scratch. 

Fraser went on to say that it certainly won't be anything like the current system, which essentially consists of paying tribute to your opponents and hoping that they grow to like you. The overhaul will also extend to the way in which the AI allies up with other computer players, with the aim being to "improve communicating what the alliance status is between other players."


"Without giving anything away, we are looking at how pretty much every other strategy game handles diplomacy including board games like Risk 2210 and Twilight Imperium (Third Edition) to PC Games like Civilization IV and [Galactic Civilizations II]," said Frasier

"The second micro expansion is really about both diplomacy and the non-military aspects of the game which will bring it more in line with the RT4X sub-genre we've labeled it as. Certainly, multiple paths to victory, especially non military paths, are part of that," Fraser said, adding that the introduction of additional game modes that will make the game more multiplayer-friendly is also a distinct possibility, pointing to the user-made Sins of a Solar Empire DOME mod as an example.
