2 Questions:
1) For those ship classes that only have one ship under them (Caldari Battlecruiser for example), are CCP ever going to introduce more?
2) Will we ever be able to create our own blueprints? For example, take the frame of a Caracal and add to it whatever engines, energy systems, hull, etc we want (with limits and subject to bonuses and penalties, of course). What would be even cooler is we can code ship behaviour, like have some kind of high-level interpreted pseudo-language to create evasive manouevres, energy-grid management, etc. Just imagine if you could code a custom button/control on your ship design (as in the blueprint) to take energy from some other system and boost energy to the engine when needed. *salivates*

1) They will introduce t2 BC/Destroyers apparently
2) No - too big a balancing issue

I believe that with COSMOS advances, there will eventually be a tiny amount of room in BPs to wiggle the stats, but not enough that you could make an armorless, 8 mile-thick-shields caracal or something. Just so that you can barely modify the stats. At most change A slot or A turret to missile or perhaps give it a hair more CPU at the cost of PG.
But those aren't hard facts. Thats mostly something I think I read from Oveur, so don't quote me unless you are flamin' me.

That sounds nice. Would be cool to have an Enyo with 5 turrets. :)

Even if it cost you 100m for the BPC and research and stuff? i'm sure if CCP ever put in such a feature (and I want them to, don't get me wrong) that it would require you to glaze the ship in ISK, maybe pour it on in a way like honey.
You'd need a veritable spigot of fundage to do such a thing. I would think :)

If I recall I read in a dev chat that tech II BC's and Destroyers are planned, however I think the OP was talking about Tier I and II as in One needs caldari Battle cruiser one, the other needs battle cruiser two, and the one that needs two is better. Similar to Battleships and a smaller extent cruisers are now. I don't think they'll bother with another tier of these ships although I could be wrong.

I think more tiers of ships like Battlecruisers and Destroyers are needed before they introduce tech 2 variants. As for battleships, I think 2 tiers is enough, though I would like to see more ships within these tiers.

1. i hope not as it is BC and dd's wreck havoc with the t1/t2 balance.
Anything stronger than a hac pwns a bs.
a t2 bs requires more skills than a t2 bc would, a t2 bs would also be more expensive than a t2 bc.
the t2 bc is also more manuverable and dangerous from a suprise atack perspective.
so why use a Hac, bs or t2 bs if you have a bc thats better all round than any of them?
2. expect this at some point but maybe not bp's.
t3 or later at a guess we will start to see player specific modified modules and maybe even ships.

which would drive you and your corporation to increase your wealth. One possibilities would be to open up the shares to the entire game, allowing anyone to buy shares in your corp. See here for my thoughts on this
