Shorten the falcon range? Fine....but how about making it a bit faster and more agile?
None of these ships can tank or do any damage...and they are slow and bulky. Who is going to bring them "up close and personal?" A short range brawler falcon? Damage dealing scorpion? Rook with a micro drone bay? You're kidding right?
If the goal is to get people to avoid flying Caldari ECM ships, you've just found a perfect solution.

ECM is the only E-WAR where the pilot simply has to wait out the cycle, and hope it doesn't affect him on the next
ECM is the only E-WAR that is chanced based.
Make the falcon more like the other E-WAR ships....and make ECM hit 100% of the time. That means faster, more agile, and the ability to fit at least some sort of damage/tank.
Better? Didn't think so.

Can you read? I made my point. Go read it again.
And your conclusion is incorrect at elast in my opinion). ECCM works great when paired with a racially limited, chanced based module like ECM. Comparing it to other e-war without this acknowledgment misses a key part of the argument.
Originally by: Guillame Herschel
That's fine, so long as ECCM is changed to be a viable counter to ECM.
ECCM is fine. Personally, I'd like to see a script for a sensor booster that increased sensor strength while limiting scan res and targeting range....but that won't happen.
Originally by: Guillame Herschel
It actually makes a hell of a lot more sense for ECM not to be chance-based.
...or just give a large strength bonus to multispecs.

Make ecm a high slot module.
That's actually really interesting.... Neat idea.
If we're going to bring the falcon into the range (literally) of the other recons (which is fine), please give it a bit more speed and agility.

In order to counter a Falcon, and SINGLE Falcon mind you, a battleship has to carry two ECCMs. This means that a battleship, to avoid being perma jammed...
lol.
Currently, mids for a falcon: MWD, sensor booster and 5 jammers (more or less). There are 4 races you need to fit for...
ECM is racially limited and chance based.
You either suck at mathematics, don't understand jamming probability or you only go up against falcon pilots that KNOW what race ship you're flying and only fit 1 racial ECM type.
Come back when you have a clue.
