Alright, let's play a game.
CCP creates a new ship that is to Titans what Titans are to everything else -- some sort of uber super monster mega ship.
The game is answering these questions:
- What does this ship do?
- How much does this ship cost (or what is required to build it) in order to keep it actually rare?

You need to dedicate 25x POS to "supplying" the ship or it loses all bonuses. It takes 1 week to move it half way across the galaxy It can't hit anything sub cap no matter what it does.
You can dock on it, basically a mobile station. It can't disappear when the owner logs off.

IT would be an Iapetus titan. It would have a variety of scary weapons. It would be unique for a year or two, then everyone would have one. It would be rather redundant. |

It can remote-kill a titan from 10 jumps away, but only once every two months.
It's a station-sized object that can't be piloted, just "controlled". It can be taken over by putting up contracts for Dust players. To build it, you need to control an orbital structure that you can only take over using Valkyrie.

I figure it would be some kind of capital eating monster ship.
With a supercapital tractor beam that can infi-point and drag enemy ships towards it, making them explode as soon as they crash into the deathships hull.
It would have directional AOE doomsdays i.e. everything 10 degrees in front of its nose gets annihilated.
It would be able to "cyno slam-dunk" on top of an enemy subcap / capital fleet and destroy them all upon landing, but then be stuck in space for the next 24 hours.
It would have a ship maintenance array capable of housing dozens of motherships.
It would only be destroyable by capturing it via entosis. |

Yeah, I'd make it indistinguishable from a Venture but stronger than a Titan combined with a Supercarrier.

Or, they could just take a fleet blob, connect all the ships, and call it the whole thing a new ship. Save us the trouble of forming blobs and trying to keep them tightly packed; everybody just jump into the "super-titan." |

To be completely honest... sometimes I wonder of the titans in game now are pointless. Making something larger, even if it could be done, would just be silly. |

suggesting to start playing a game requires the previous game to have stopped. considering this game started in 2003 and has since then never stopped, you can't start a new game.
oh and also obligatory THE GAME

Big terminus:
Jove tech 20 cannon platform (technically a ship but with a four hundred year align time, it is simply easier to consider it an immobile platform).
Launches a black hole to the center of New Eden, and we are all forced to play another game, cuz EVE is sucked in and devoured.
First alliance to make one wins EVE.
Yawn,-á I'm right as usual. The predictability kinda gets boring really.

The Soul taker
Fitted with capital tractor beams that can drag in pods during a fight and bring them on board. The character who has had their pod taken can log in but will be taken to an alternate to a captains quarters which would look like a cell. Held for ransom etc.
Would add a new dimension to fights E.G. Protect well known FC's (ELO, Mr Vee). To prevent complete character shut out maybe a time limit on how long you can be held for. To prevent players from not paying the ransom because they know they have a set time of capture maybe a penalty of some kind like the t3 skill point loss just as an example. Or the ability to confiscate articles of clothes permanently.
As well as tractor beams it has capital salvager that can salavge ships while they are still alive. Upon a successful cycle of the salvager a random module from the targeted ship is taken.
I'm laughing just thinking of ships like this. |

huge ship basically a station cant do much else....
dock refit store ships use as a Titan bridge no weapons huge tank point defense cannons (autofire on anything within 10km - for drones and frigs) would require a capital fleet to defend it
would be good IMO |

It is the Polaris frigate.
It does anything you want it to do.
The costs involve working for CCP.
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all.

What's it do? Can fit a module that can disable escape from the system it's in (or if you really wanted to be crazy, from a targetted system within X light years)... gates, wormholes, jump drives all stop working while the module is active.
Cost? I'd probably be more interested in making it difficult to discover the ship even CAN be built and difficult to bring all the aspects of the project together than worrying about the "expense" of the ship. Maybe make it so that the folk who are especially interested in the story aspects of Eve discover hints here and there about the ship and if people put those hints together they can begin construction using a variety of materials from all over Eve, requiring serious logistics to bring everything together so that it's more of an intelligence risk and logistics hassle to build than purely "expensive." |

It is actually known as the Ultimate Frontier Observer, a Super-Titan class.
Being able to use this cylindrical style Jove ship takes approximately 2 years to train the skill required to fly it, and you can't pause the training or it resets.
It doesn't have any weapons, moves no quicker than 200 m/s, and has no shields, but it has 1,000,000,000 armor and 100,000,000 hull.
It has two modules, the first allows it to cyno/jump anywhere, with limit to a 1 week cooldown period, and the second is a WG generator.
The sole purpose of this ship is to use the WG generator after cynoing into EVE constellation, opening the EVE gate, and have just enough armor and hull to pass through the EVE Gate without being destroyed.
Thus, anyone who makes it is able to visit the Sol system and planet Earth, destroy the white house, and get punched in the face by Will Smith upon being shot down in the grand canyon by an F16 fighter jet.
Idk about you but i'd like to see that. |

1. Super PWNmobile. As usual. 2. INFINITE resources over time and blue donut will not keep it rare. Meaning more super PWNmobiles (see 1). 3. One more reason not to go to nullsec 4. bored gate campers will complain in the forums the usual grrr carebears CCP please funnel other players into my raep camp 5. As usual 6. profit?
