i think it will be based on your cruiser skill
ie if you have bc 5
gall cruiser 4
amarr cruiser 3
caldari cruiser 5
mini cruiser 4
you will get
gall bc 4
amarr bc 3
caldari bc 5
mini bc 4
that would be a fair way to do it but giving us all 5 for bc 5 would be great but that would defeat the point of changing in the first place
No, it wouldn't be any more fair, nor would it defeat the point of changing stuff. On that last point, seriously, wtf are you talking about? What do you think the point is (because apparently it's something strange)?
This is a situation where you can't have a solution that will make everyone happy. However you spin it, someone loses out on something except perhaps those who have all cruisers to 5 and BC 5 (you might argue they lose out because they might have to upgrade their clone to a more expensive one). Some will hurt more than others, it's unavoidable. I think that the way that does the least damage involves giving Racial BC V to those who have BC V right now and the Racial Cruiser III or higher. Same for Destroyers and Frigate skills.
AFAIK there are no ships* that directly require BC V so technically you wouldn't suddenly not be able to fly some ship that you could fly before even if BC V isn't given based on BC and Cruiser skills, but then folks would have to spend literally months training up to use their BC's as well as they could before which kind of sucks. Losing Destroyer V would however matter to dictor pilots as you have to have that skill to get into a T2 destroyer.
* DO NOT say "Command Ships require BC V to fly, I won't be able to fly my CS if I lose BC V" because it's not true. The skill Command Ships requires BC V, the ships themselves do not (nested skills). If you already have that skill injected (let alone trained up) it won't suddenly uninject if you lose BC V, thus rendering you unable to fly your CS. Losing BC V will have an effect on bonuses for command ships since one of them is a "Battlecruisers Skill Bonus", but technically you'd still be able to fly it, just not as effectively. For comparison, you *would* lose your ability to fly dictors if you lose Dessy V since that skill is a direct prereq for the ship.
