I would love to play it but just keeps mini dumping on startup. Even after I deleted local content and re-downloaded. So kinda pissed.

saidar - Rebellion uses Ironclad Online and Steamworks for multiplayer invitations.

I just preordered and finished downloading. I can't wait to give it a try. I do have a question though. Why the switch to steam instead of continuing to use Impulse/Gamestop like the previous SoaSE games?

In beta 2 (build v0.76) where is the GalaxyForge directory ?  only asking because there is no 'Mods-Rebellion v0.76' like there is for all previous versions.

The directory for all of that has been moved to "My Games" in "My Documents" instead of being in appData...

don't tell IronClad/Stardock this, but it currently works on Windows 8 CP…

I have tried to play it twice now using Large/multi star with 6 AI opponents and it will lock up after about 3 hours of play and the games are lost.

Anyone know if the GalaxyForge map editor is supposed to work for this game or is it just mine that doesn't work?
