Nope I said that. Gallente and Minmatar are great snipers, and good for those stupid 100km range fleet fights. But if you try to move that sniper fleet between systems you will die horribly when a medium range fleet with less pilots jumps you as you come out of gate cloak.
Thats what cov ops and scouts are for.
And thats why all BS in fleet usually load close range ammo before jump, if jumping into enemy camp.

It doesn't mean the differences aren't there, and it's especially annoying when someone makes a thread 'hey gallente ships sux'.
I asked a question, I didn't make a statement, sorry for the misunderstanding.
Regards,
AK.

Everyone has covert ops and scouts, and that means you only need to head to a gate when people are incoming. The snipers choice is to either refit for close range or stay put. Either way that makes sniper fleets useless for offensive actions.
Thats why it would be awesome if CCP gave titans the ability to allow ships to refit. A fleet could travel with close range fittings and then switch to sniping when the titan jumps in.
That is not dead which can eternal lie,
And with strange aeons even death may die.

Sorry, without beeing disrespectfull, i think you are wrong.
The bigger the fleet would be, the more the "sniperships" will be in favor, regardless the range.
Ok except all Snipers were on the same spot and all the Blasterthrons would warp onto them 3km away. Then and only then you would have a massacre of the snipers. Anything farer way of 10km and the snipers will annihalate all of the Blaster ships.

Fully agree with post above.
Tempest with 1400 IIs hits BS perfectly on 15km with EMP.
For greater effect dont activate tracking comps when engaging BS on such ranges.....youll still hit same, but optimal will be reduced to normal allowing you to place better hits.

My two isk...
Gal have two of the best AF, one of the best Ceptors (taranis), the best miner BS's in the game, BS's that are fully capable of combat if you skills are good in gunnery/eng/nav, and arguably the best HAC's...
Not to mention the best Cruiser (thorax)... IMHO

I started training around gallente about 7-8 months ago, back when all the other ships were getting boosted/nerfed.
I figured gallente would be good eventually...
And I was right.

Hehe, anything under optimal is 'in optimal'. Tracking and sig radius are the big problems.

Common sense would actually be to say that the ship only makes a 1/3 of the battle, with another third being equipment and last third being the pilot at the control. Personally I'm going back to Gallente ships after using a Raven for a long while.....also spurred on by the fact I bought myself a Vindicator.

(but on semi related note, methinks i saw a thread recently where someone made a guess about Blind's identity, and that guess made lot of sense... :s

CCP has provided you with the tools you need to avoid crime. You're just too lazy/stupid to use them.
