Gamecloud - Are there any multiplayer modes planned for Sins of a Solar Empire? Blair Fraser - Being avid strategy multiplayer gamers ourselves, multiplayer in Sins of Solar Empire was something we heavily focused on. By varying start conditions, both small scale head-to-head and large scale 10 player battles are possible. If that is not enough flexibility, the Iron Engine's embedded Lua scripting and Forge Tool Suite allow players to creatively devise custom scenarios only limited by their imagination. IroncladOnline facilitates all of this by providing matchmaking, statistics tracking, and player ranking. Overall, our multiplayer features should appeal to both casual and hardcore gamers.
