In honesty I believe the soct ships are Jove, just very old obsolete designs that the jove no longer consider important thus shared the blueprints with soct, after all the soct ships do have similarities reminiscent of the jove ships we do know about.
I mean if you compare the gnosis to something like the eidolon, the gnosis in a way looks like a very old much chunkier version of the sleek design their modern ships have. |

No, saying SoCT ships are Jovian is like saying the Sansha ships are Caldari just because Sansha Kuvakei was/is Caldari. |

Except with this particular idiom it's always a measure of distance that is used: They're miles ahead of us! Etc.

Cat Troll wrote:Aren't the Jove supposed to be light years ahead of us? Any of their ships are supposed to ROFLstomp our ships, and yet the Gnosis isn't really that powerful. Its powerful and versatile yes, but light years ahead of the empires? No.
Is this like an old model? Because if this ship is the average Jovian ship, then the empires could take them down with just sheer numbers.
If you look at the EVE map, Jove space is light years ahead of us. You can find it further to the relative north. |

And the "kessel run" is navigating between a cluster of black holes as close as you dare, in that context 12 parsecs is actually quite an achievement. But I still would like to see Lukas getting crucified.

Those must be some wussy smugglers then considering that 12 parsecs is equal to about 47 light years away! |

Considering that the gravitational pull of black holes is what holds the universe together, would you want to be any closer? Do not seek to follow in the footsteps of the wise.

Remember, them stomping the amarr fleet was just as much due to them pulling a fast one over on the stupid Amarr as their raw firepower.
Since then, the four Empires have had time to improve while the Jove have been wasting away. We routinely use reverse engineered sleeper gear. If the Jove are still more advanced, we have still likely been closing the gap. |

For all we know it could be a time-challenge to do a certain something in the least distance possible.
Sourcing: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Kessel_Run
A kessel run was a one way, 18 parsec shortcut trip used by smugglers. It has a standard distance. The 12 parsecs quote, is a joke, because parsecs is time, and saying that you could run a kessel run in 12 parsecs is the same as saying you ran a marathon in only 17 miles.
So no. |

No, you can't technically say it, but you can figuratively say it. Technically implies a duality of facts, but in this case, you are simply using a metaphor. |
