This idea was suggested in the Assembly Hall and had strong support:
Issue: Information Warfare links, while not completely useless, are of far less attractiveness than Armored, Skirmish and Siege Warfare links. Also, Information Warfare doesn't really suit Gallente at all, as far as RP is concerned.
-------------------
Solution: Scrap IW links in favor of Assault Warfare links. These deal with damage application.
Assault Warfare Link - Target Leading
Increases all turret tracking by 2-3% (before skills/mindlinks/commandships)
Assault Warfare Link - Gun Drill
Increase all turret falloff by 2-3% (before skills/mindlinks/commandships)
Assault Warfare Link - Surrogate Combat
Increase all drone speed and tracking by 2-3% (before skills/mindlinks/commandships)
-------------------
Q: Why no Optimal range link?
A: Because they would become pretty much mandatory for fleet fights, whereas all other gang links are only "nice to have".

So ...
You essentially create links that are mandatory for any sniper fleet. The tracking bonus alone would see that module on every command-capable ship in a sniper fleet. Turret fall off in particular boosts up Minmatar and Gallente/Caldari snipers, with Amarr suffering the most in that regard. The drone link would see use in any carrier/mothership fleet, assuming it applied to fighters as well, for the enormous speed and tracking boost their deadly cruiser swarm would get.
...
Ok I'm not really sure how this fits in with the others being "nice to have".

I always thought the "Armored Warfare Link - Passive Defense" was pretty mandatory for a serious fleet op.
15% Tracking bonus would only matter when tracking is being challenged, which is significantly less often then armor is.
