Why in the universe did they release a Navy Brutix instead of a Navy Myrmidon? We already had 3 different Brutix-class ships, plus all the other races got navy versions of their non-CS BC classes... ...so why another Brutix? I don't mean to sound ungrateful for new content...I've just been hoping for a new Myrm for a long time, and I'm a little irritated by this missed opportunity. |

CCP hates Myrm pilots, therefore they put in just one less than a full set of drones to grief you. To rub it in, they give navy vexor full set of drones. And they simply cannot give you a navy version that would have a full set of drones, as it would undo previous griefing...

Because Brutix are cool and drones are a tricky weapon system due to their destructability, travel time and low DPS... |

They are cool indeed, but myrms are cool too and as I said - the were already 3 brutix class to choose from anyway. As for your drone point, I don't see how that would be a factor in CCP choosing brutix over myrm...because if it was, why would they have drones in the game to begin with?

More reason to not release it. I'm asking why they did release it. |

hot void and hammers (1000/1126). What I'm trying to say is that the BNI is a very nice ship, and definitely a good alternative for the Talos in some situations.
Having said that, I would too like to see a faction Myrmidon, and maybe we will get one in the future...C: |

There's talk over on the Features board about switching the Eos to a myrmidon hull. Were that to happen then there'd be no issue with the navy brutix. |

I honestly would be happy enough with that.
But, I believe that would only make things worse. I think the fundamental flaw here is that they've treated one faction differently to the other three - and if they change the Eos to a myrm hull, surely many pilots from the other 3 factions will be calling to have their respective command ships changed? |

that 1126 DPS brutix? If a myrmidon caught it in a belt it would still kill it. |

Who cares, it would just be a model change.
I like the look of the brutix better anyway |

IIRC also proposed are: Nighthawk -> Drake Absolution -> Harbinger Sleipnir -> Hurricane
The sleipnir and absolution being changed to new hulls are being contested though, or at least contested moreso than the suggested nighthawk change which is, last I saw, more contested than the proposed eos change. |

Do NOT touch my Nighthawk! I will hurt you! Badly!
A Navy Myrm with 125 bandwith would have been a nice thing. Just to have a 5 Heavy Drones Myrm again :) I miss that

I care.
And I also prefer the look of the myrm. |

I actually wish there were more differences like this.
Every race following the same rules and being similar is very bad and boring. |

Eos to a Myrm hull would be cool, but the other proposed changes I'm torn on. Slep to a Cane hull would be cool too. Abso and NH not so much |

All the serpentis faction ships are gunboats. need to leave space for a serpentis faction droneboat. They could make the trolling of gallente complete if it had projectile bonuses from the minmatar skill :)
The navy vexor and navy domi are perfectly fine navy faction droneboats.
