The second DLC for the space RTS game developed by Ironclad Games and released at the beginning of 2008. As the title suggests, the expansion focuses on introducing new diplomacy-related elements into the game. Above all, the player gains access to a new screen containing data on relations between particular factions, which makes it easier to judge whether to maintain good relations with one party or not.

Sins of a Solar Empire: Diplomacy is the second micro-development for the real-time space strategy Sins of a Solar Empire: Sins of a Solar Empire: Sins of the Sun Empire. This time new diplomatic options have been put in our hands.

After the installation of Diplomacy we get access to a new screen with data on the relations between the different factions, together with a brief explanation of the situation. Thanks to it, we are able to assess very quickly which of them are worth establishing friendly relations with.

Of course, these are not all the novelties. They also qualify for the possibility of concluding new trade agreements, the positive implementation of which is tantamount to enriching oneself with missing raw materials. At any time, we can also entrust missions to the allied factions, thereby deepening our relations with them.

In addition, Diplomacy completes the game with a new unit - diplomatic envoy. His role is twofold. First of all, we use him as an ambassador, representing us in distant worlds. However, there is nothing to prevent him from dealing with the destabilisation of opposition governments.

A recent addition to Sins of a Solar Empire: The Sins of the Sun's Empire also enriches Ironclad Games' work with thirty new technologies directly related to diplomacy, and modifies the way pirates work, which have become even more dangerous opponents.
