Shamis Orzoz Sniggerdly Pandemic Legion	Posted - 2011.06.15 05:21:00 - [1] I'd recommend some point changes: Faction cruisers - lower them to 13 points. T1 Cruisers - lower them to 7 points. haulers - 1 point battleships/marauders/blackops - 17 points faction battleships - 20 points t1 frigates - 2 points Other than that, if you add a few more ships to the limit, we could have more interesting fights with more diverse tactics.
Shamis Orzoz Sniggerdly Pandemic Legion	Posted - 2011.06.15 13:39:00 - [2] Originally by: Terianna Eri Edited by: Terianna Eri on 15/06/2011 10:24:54 I would not like to see things like "today we do Gallente-only setups". While this will definitely force new kinds of setups, I don't know if it'll actually result in better fights or more inventive setups (i.e. i can forsee restrictions that will result in only one or two obvious fleets that remain good). Additionally, some restrictions may hurt smaller alliances who may simply not have enough pilots to field viable all-Gallente (for example) setups. EDIT: restrictions like "you have to warp in at zero" might be fun though I would like to see (rules changes): -Point cost reduction on HACs, battleship hulls, HICs (cost as much as HACs? lol), faction cruisers, and T1 cruisers. -Point cost increase on logistics and T3s -Restrictions on ECM as it is the least interactive EWAR mechanic and leads to short, swingy fights one way or another. Banning racial ECM is my favorite way to do it so far - if you know what your opponent is going to bring, you should have to do more than say "lol ok bring 3 rooks with amarr jammers" to exploit that. -More sources of remote repping aside from Logi/T3/drones. Maybe 1 RR/ship -Slightly smaller arenas (200k instead of 250k across?) Torn on group stages. On one hand, I like the fact that it allows a way for every team to have at least 3 matches cast on EVETV, which is very cool. Also it allows teams to really plan out their matches since they know who they'll be fighting well ahead of time. On the other hand having matches where the result is literally irrelevant is.. questionable. Irrelevant matches can be fun because either team can bring really whatever they damn well please but also boring because there's nothing riding on it. Personally I lend towards the former - more matches per team and the possibility of having "lols" fights is worth it to me. Would really like prequalifiers to be cast next time. I would like to see (but don't know how to encourage it with rules): -MORE LASERS -MORE BLASTERS -LESS AUTOCANNONS But of course Minmatar ships are extremely good in tournament settings so I don't know if it's possible to get these. The only way to see more lasers and more blasters would be to lower the point cost of gallente and amarr would be to fine tune the points PER SHIP. Something like: brutix 9 points cyclone 10 points harbinger 12 points hurricane 13 points sleipnir 16 points abso 15 points etc I think the proteus is a great ship, but generally speaking all gallente and amarr ships in the tourney are much weaker than their caldari/minmatar counterparts. There are several notable exceptions like the curse, but you could drop most amarr/gal ship costs by 1 point and I think people would use them a lot, they are just very slightly worse than min/cal.
