As like everyone else, I'm very excited over the announcement of the new expansion Rebellion...So far, only one ship has been shown from the original three factions which I think will become a legendary class of ships in the Sins universe.
This ship is bristling with guns on four wing pylons, probably a mix of long and short weapons, kinetic and beam weapons most likely. Have more strike craft than a carrier capital, and missile weapons loads. And now the business end of the ship...
I believe this ship is a mobile Novalith cannon, shrunk down to size on a mobile platform, because of her size, she is slow but faster that a Vasari starbase. And more than likely, she can target capital size ships and starbases with her main weapon. And if that is the case, once it takes out the capital ships, mop up the cruisers and frigates and blast a planet with four to five shots and bring in the colony ships for settlement.
Armor and shields would be just below that of a starbase but of course, this is all speculation. Like to get everyones thought of the TEC's newest class of ship since the envoy ship. I bet the Vasari's came out first and the Traders brought out theirs next followed by the Advent....
I can't wait to see the Vasari's Titan Class Super Capital.....
The thing is that it should be nearly impossible to destroy a Titan, especially if it has even a small supporting fleet. So while raiding forces could invade the gravity well of a stationary Novalith and kill it with Remote Explosives or bombers or Ogrovs, it would be much much harder to take out a Titan-based Novalith.
That said, I really don't like the idea of putting a Novalith on a Titan. I don't like the Novalith period, actually.
What stardock should do after rebellion is do sins for xbox 360 or something that would fun to see sins on your tv!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not happening. Consoles have atrociously low RAM and Sins as we know it would be infeasible. Sins Rebellion has a minimum spec of 2 GB of RAM, and recommends 4 GB.
You could always hook up your computer to do this if you like.
what i think should happen to pirates is since we get titans they should get capital ships to even things out a bt and this is coming form a person who HATES pirates.
Agreed.
My current setup is my super compy hooked up to a 32" Sony Bravia set to 120 hz screen refresh and "Game Mode" Color balance. Sins looks AMAZING.
Does anyone know what the other titans will look like
Sure. The Devs working on it all know what they look like, and what they're supposed to do. The rest of us? We only know what's been shown and that's not much at all.

Thoes are AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seriously the rebel Tec ships look way better than the main faction Tec, looks like the rebels took all of the Tec ship designers.
