We're half-way through February which can only mean it's time for some new Sins of a Solar Empire screenshots!  This month we've got a bit of a treat with high resolution versions of each snapshot. Click the thumbnail for a 1280x960 resolution version or the text link for a 1600x1200 version:

But on image 2, they just look so small (well that might be because of the distance), and looks like they are moving around the planet for some reason

Oh, duh. Sorry.    You mean the stuff that's on the edge of the planet?  That's just the side view of one of the space elevator groups. Then there's a couple of small asteroids hanging out in the foreground too.

looks to me , that each planet we've seen has a few space elevators rotating the planet, thats pretty cool! is there a generic about of elevators added once a planet gets to a certain level or is it dependent on the amount of trade that planet does?

Planet elevators help indicate the level of development of the planet. As it grows, more and more elevators will be built to handle the traffic moving between the surface and orbit and between the elevators themselves.

Sure thing.

I'm definitely hoping now that we will have the ability to modify the fractal equations and procedurally generated content with the modding suite. I'm drooling at the opportunity to make a SW mod for this thing...

taht way when emperor comes to surrender his whole fleet to me, I will force him to walk thousands of miles just to beg at my feet. but at least he could enjoy the red velvet.

The magic of new artwork and some HTML.

It looks like Homeworld 2. If it plays half as well it should be worthwhile.

I come down the stairs to realize that my computer hadn't shut down last time I told it too. I walked away too soon, and didn't notice that some program wasn't responding. I told windows to end the program, and it starts to shut down, but freezes. I reach for the reset button, but stop myself first. I then step back in awe as my desktop had been removed and the sins screenshot I am using as a background is displayed in all its glory, full screen, on my monitor.
