Lol again very nice but you guys gotta be faster next time on the annoucements. It is already on youtube and made a forum post of it.

Also did I see corvettes running around the Athena Titan?

Sweeeeet! Great to see cinematics added to the Sins Repertoire. Definitely adds a new flavor to sins in general. Epic!

 

Really looking forward to Rebellion!

Very cool. If thats all in game its a great improvement.

Is that an in game cut scene I see or just a revised intro? Grand campaign or missions anybody?

Heck it could be that we now get cut scenes for planet invasions and the like.

Doubtful. More of a new opening cut scene like the rest of the expansions.

funny I do not remember any new opening cut scenes for the other expansions. But then I do usually skip them after the first watch.

What phases me is while that colony ship looks big. It looks nowhere near the size you would need to get enough people down to colonise a planet with enough men to actually expand quickly. I mean the 1000 people or so depicted are going to take centuries to colonise a planet. The ship just does not look large enough.

There is a cutscene for all three thus far.  Start whatever version of the game you want to see the scene for, go to Options, Cinematic, and check the box for Show Opening Cinematic...  Quit the game and run it again and you'll get to see it.  Of course, there are other ways to see it but this is the least technical method.

 

I liked this little vid, but the Titan's shot just looked weak.  I'll have to get Krdax working on a new particle for me for that one.

They've said no story / grand campaign like the others, it is supposed to be a bigger expansion. Seems like just a CG trailer to me (not in game or anthing)

thats not an invasion, look at the people, they are walking towards the ship

The trailer is OK, but i think it needs more impact with ingame massive battles with titans.

 

Well I hope it will be a HUGE expansion anyway

Very nice!

I did like the look of the Kol's shadow on the argonov starbase. It is looking good, keep up the good work, Stardock.

This is just the teaser trailer.

while i too imagined the colony ship to be larger, it's possible it is "colonizing" an inhabited world (they all have militia) and just bringing administrators to bring it under control.  like how India was a British colony (as opposed to to the US).

it could also be a shuttle identical to the larger version because the TEC was a bit rushed when the Vasari and Advent invaded (we never see them land in-game).

but yeah, i really like this.

Nice trailer.

Awesome!!

Does anyone else feel that the Kols front Cannons need to be changed to be more in line with the way the Star base Beam Arrays are?  I don't like how there are Four cannons that should only be able to fire in a direct line but they do not.  they can fire in a 180 degree arc.  To me, those  Cannons need to be replaced with the ones on the Star base the U shaped ones to better match its firing arcs.  those would be better looking I think.  anyone else disagree?
