The new arms race began in earnest as reports leaked from State Intelligence that operatives had discovered a Gallente project to retrofit Myrmidon class hulls with stolen Amarr and Caldari Electronic Warfare systems. The other major powers quickly began their own crash programs to develop hybrid EWAR platforms giving birth to a new series of ships, the Advanced Electronic Attack Platforms.
One of the things that has struck me as odd from a meta perspective is that none of the Empires has adopted the EWAR technology of their enemies. This combined with a lack of Tech II variants of the Tier 2 Battlecruisers provided the inspiration for the below suggestion.
Myrmidon [Caldari Variant] Formian Battlecruiser Bonuses 10% per level to Drone durability and damage. 5% per level to maximum targeting range. (Replaces armor repair bonus.) AEAP Bonuses 15% per level to ECM strength. 25% per level to ECM range/falloff.
Myrmidon [Amarr Variant] Phthia Battlecruiser Bonuses 10% per level to Drone durability and damage. 5% per level to capacitor recharge rate. (Replaces armor repair bonus.) AEAP Bonuses 20% per level to Energy Vampire and Neutralizer amount. 40% per level to Energy Vampire and Neutralizer range.
------------------------------------------------------------------ Drake [Gallente Variant] Gugalana Battlecruiser Bonuses 5% per level to kinetic damage of heavy missiles and heavy assault missiles. 5% per level to speed and agility. (Replaces Shield resistance bonus.) AEAP Bonuses 15% per level to Remote Sensor Dampener effectiveness. 15% per level to Warp Disruptor range.
Drake [Minmatar Variant] Jormungandr Battlecruiser Bonuses 5% per level to kinetic damage of heavy missiles and heavy assault missiles. 3% per level reduction in signature radius. (Replaces Shield resistance bonus.) AEAP Bonuses 15% per level to Target Painter effectiveness. 20% per level to Stasis Webifier range.
------------------------------------------------------------------ Hurricane [Amarr Variant] Templar Battlecruiser Bonuses 5% per level to Medium Projectile turret damage. 5% per level to capacitor recharge rate. (Replaces rate of fire bonus.) AEAP Bonuses 10% per level to Tracking Disruptor effectiveness. 10% per level to Energy Vampire and Neutralizer range and amount.
Hurricane [Caldari Variant] Thunderbird Battlecruiser Bonuses 5% per level to Medium Projectile turret damage. 5% per level to maximum targeting range. (Replaces rate of fire bonus.) AEAP Bonuses 20% per level to ECM strength. 10% per level to ECM range/falloff.
------------------------------------------------------------------ Harbinger [Minmatar Variant] Skald Battlecruiser Bonuses 5% per level to Medium Laser turret damage. 3% per level reduction in signature radius.(Replaces laser capacitor bonus.) AEAP Bonuses 10% per level to Target Painter effectiveness. 30% per level to Stasis Webifier range.
Harbinger [Gallente Variant] Cultist Battlecruiser Bonuses 5% per level to Medium Laser turret damage. 5% per level to EWAR Drone effectiveness. (Replaces laser capacitor bonus.) AEAP Bonuses 10% per level to Remote Sensor Dampener effectiveness. 10% per level to Warp Disruptor range.
------------------------------------------------------------------ Q: Why arenĈt there 3 ships for each race? A: Two reasons; first I like asymmetrical balance and second in the fiction of EVE it would probably be bad politics to steal from your allies.
Q: Those bonuses are way overpowered/underpowered? A: IĈm sure they are. This is just a rough sketch, balancing is for the Gods of the Spreadsheet.
Obviously a lot of stuff needs to be fiddled with like HP, drone bays, slot layouts to get things right. That would be for someone else to figure out.

The very last thing we need in this game is more e-war boats. Seriously ewar is powerful enough as it is, combine it with a gank BC and you've got something that is seriously o/p.

Why did you even bother typing all that out? You KNOW it's gonna get trolled and flamed to death, so why even bother?

Yeah because a Drake that has triple the strength bonus of the Arazu in RSDs and a scram bonus wouldn't be OP at all. ---

LOL you think thats OP ? Did you even read the curseadon ?
Seriously... this is an awful idea, but not without its attractions.
ECM bonus + 6 slot armor buffer . Yeah I'd fly that. Especially the myrm one. With AC's, racials and armor tank. Basically the ultimate gang ship, ditto for the hurricane version. Throw in some arazu/drakes to tackle and you have the most effective sub-BS gang you could ever want.
5 of these would beat basically anything. Brick drakes doing the tackling, and then 3 myrms gives you nice big damage and 12 racials between them. I mean that NASTY.
Alternatively, curseadon for a FAR too good solo ship.
10/10 for effort, but I think you need to go and have a sit down and a cup of tea and think about why this would be hilariously OP.

I like it. It should encourage more cross-training of other racials.

Different EWar is part of what makes each racial ship lineup unique. When you start crossing EWar like this, you make the ships more homogeneous overall. This might have had a better reception if you had suggested a line of pirate faction EWar ships instead, changed the names, and kept the same bonuses.

Get your thieving hands off my Caldari ECM...
If you get to have ECM bonused ships for your race, then i want ships that are bonused for your specialities.
Give me a Drake with autocannon and speed bonuses plz.
