Sins of a Solar Empire that is.
I have never played a 4X type RTS before, and it's definitely showing. I have not won a single skirmish, even on easy, so I have to be doing something wrong.

That game is hard and slow trying to finish a match in a reasonable amount of time will result in you losing, it is a game about turtleing.
I completely sucked at the micro and managed to win just by expanding as far as I could, building up a huge stack of crap, and eventually wearing down the computer. I never felt like I really understood the strategy though.

2222068 The way you were playing the game is kinda the best way to play the game, the defenceive tech is so crazy strong you need to mass up for a long time before you have any chance at all of successfully attacking anything.
