Anybody played Sins of a Solar Empire?

I've been looking for another Homeworld game for a while. I really miss the slow but complicated RTS space game.
 
I thought Sins was pretty fun.

Although I never got attached enough to try games with more than one solar system, the RTS became to overwhelming for me at that size (then again I'm not much of an RTS person).
 
Sins is ok (talking about Trinity), but it's no Homeworld. The space battles are more like Risk battles with a wee bit of tactics involved. It's a standard RTS version of a standard 4X game---no more, no less.
The most unique features are the pirate raid bidding and the vaguely DOTA-like Capital ships.

I picked it up for $10 this year on sale, and I'd say that is its worth. Gal Civ2 Ultimate was more fun overall for me, as a Civ4 fan.
