Corvus Crax	Posted - 2005.10.27 11:50:00 - [31] Originally by: Aria Stardancer Originally by: Xerxes X Would be interested to know whether the Mothership is the same or different to the Flagship. I hope it's different, and that the Flagship is effectively an uber-BS. Xerxes X Mothership = Flying corp hanger, complete with the ability to fly up to with a egg, pick a ship, and undock it, then 'board' said ship. there's also a menue for the corp hanger with the seperate hanger slots. (all this gotten from watching that boot-leg vidio from the fanfest =) ) Weither or not you can 'equip' a ship with it or not i dunno, but i dought it. you probably have to pre-equip the ships befor ya stuff them into the mothership. Havent heard anything about Flagships though =) unless those are the Titans. In fact in this very video they say that they don't have any motherships to show us, so the carrier that they fly up to to get a ship from is a normal carrier. If the standard carrier would only be an XL dronecarrier with leadershipbonuses and the ability to carry XL energy/shield/armour transfer arrays it would be a bit sad. The part about taking out a ship from the carrier and getting items from the corp hangar in it, is what made the experience for me. Exactly what I have always wanted from this game. Now I just need to train and save up my isk for a year or so and I will be out there...and probably get blown up just as fast...

Falke Chasseur	Posted - 2005.10.27 22:06:00 - [34] I just want a Blue Carrier to match Eris' Pink Dreadnought.. Tell me that wouldn't be awesome! Forum rules\|Email I ♥ Eris
Malthros Zenobia	Posted - 2005.10.28 01:54:00 - [35] That wouldn't be awesome.
Meridius	Posted - 2005.10.28 02:05:00 - [36] Logically speaking, they should be allowed in empire. Dreads are not since there diet consists of POS and there are no POS in 0.5+ ________________________________________________________
Darlan Flame	Posted - 2005.10.28 04:26:00 - [37] I dont know why people worry so much about super weapons in hub systems. There is no concevable amount of damage you could do with your one shot to compare with losing your 50 billion isk Titan. You could destroy 200 people in battleships and it still wouldn't justify the cost of getting destroyed.
Malthros Zenobia	Posted - 2005.10.28 05:17:00 - [38] Originally by: Meridius Logically speaking, they should be allowed in empire. Dreads are not since there diet consists of POS and there are no POS in 0.5+ Dreads aren't allowed in because the way they work keeps them from being able to enter. Also, if you were the commander of the CONCORD forces in the region, and saw a TITAN jump into the system, would you simply sit there looking at it until it fired its superweapon? What about the local navy? I'm fairly certain that if someone outside the Caldari navy flew a Titan into Caldari space, they'd strike it with everything possible as a safety precaution. Honestly, what would be the point of taking a titan into empire space? You're not going to fire its weapon and NOT hit something that triggers a CONCORDDOKKEN against your -entire gang-. The normal carrier will apparently beable to enter empire space (would make sense, provided it's not to big for jump gates), and should be useable, since it's not setup for things like POS destroying, and atleast one captial ship needs to beable to go in empire. Titans can only be built in POSes in 0.0, and like dreads, won't beable to jump inot high-sec space. Dreads can be built in high sec empire systems, but you'd risk having it stuck there forever (but damn what a nice suprise you'd have for an enemy in an empire war in that system).

Concord didnt intervene when salvador sarapati ran off with the gallente titan...
Falke Chasseur	Posted - 2005.10.29 19:17:00 - [40] Surprised there has been no response from Cordy yet... Just watch out in Empire when I come flying my Big Blue Carrier! Forum rules\|Email I ♥ Eris

Eris Discordia	Posted - 2005.10.29 19:24:00 - [41] Originally by: Falke Chasseur I just want a Blue Carrier to match Eris' Pink Dreadnought.. Tell me that wouldn't be awesome! Your blue carrier wouldn't last long sweetie I heart all, some more then others though.

Falke Chasseur	Posted - 2005.10.29 19:41:00 - [42] Or we could work together in a bright flash of colors and beat everyone else down? What say you Eris, shall we rule EVE? Forum rules\|Email I ♥ Eris

Eris Discordia	Posted - 2005.10.29 19:42:00 - [43] Originally by: Falke Chasseur Or we could work together in a bright flash of colors and beat everyone else down? What say you Eris, shall we rule EVE? There will be only 1 brightly coloured ship and it shall be the pink dreadnought of pwnage, all others are inferior and redundant. You can polish it though if you ask nicely I heart all, some more then others though.

Falke Chasseur	Posted - 2005.10.29 19:43:00 - [44] Fine... May I please polish your big shiny Pink Dreadnought of PWNAGE?? Forum rules\|Email I ♥ Eris

Eris Discordia	Posted - 2005.10.29 19:47:00 - [45] Originally by: Falke Chasseur Fine... May I please polish your big shiny Pink Dreadnought of PWNAGE?? That sounds dirty, but sure I heart all, some more then others though.

Siri Danae	Posted - 2005.10.29 20:14:00 - [48] Originally by: Mercade Please keep this thread constructive and show restraint from Hijacking. Thank you. Q: If ISD is the police, who will police the police? A: The Coast Guard. Back on topic, my guess is we're going to see a .5+ ban on all capital ships. There's no reason to have them, they present a security risk, and they'll terrify the carebears. ------ I generally assume the following: 1. 95% of Empire Carebears don't get 0.0 PVPers. 2. 95% of 0.0 PVPers don't get Empire Carebears. 3. 100% of Ore Thieves steal just to upset the Miners.

There's no reason to have them, they present a security risk, and they'll terrify the carebears. There's plenty of reasons to have carriers in highsec. They're fleet ships, and there are many fleet battles in high sec. Sig modified due to xenophobic comments -Iacon

That and fleets of mining drones Regards elFarto Stratego > 2005.10.22 14:15:17 combat Imperium Alliance petitions you, glancing off causing no real damage.
Derron Bel	Posted - 2005.10.30 01:35:00 - [52] A big Dreadnought role will be blasting apart other capital ships. Carriers shouldn't be able to go anywhere dreadnoughts cant. -==- Holy-Jim> as you know, surprise is the key to victory.....surprise! LooseCannoN> ahh! LooseCannoN> my plans have been foiled!

That and fleets of mining drones Regards elFarto If CCP is smart, they'll make the bonus from carriers, if any, apply only to XL drones. Though I don't think they have any turret slots, so that would make mining fairly pointless anyway. Sig modified due to xenophobic comments -Iacon
Derron Bel	Posted - 2005.10.30 06:40:00 - [54] XL mining drones!! \/ Haha, no. -==- Holy-Jim> as you know, surprise is the key to victory.....surprise! LooseCannoN> ahh! LooseCannoN> my plans have been foiled!
Hllaxiu	Posted - 2005.10.30 06:55:00 - [55] Originally by: F'nog Originally by: Hllaxiu Originally by: Virida Originally by: SengH lol I wonder who will be the first to do a suicide titan superweapon in the empire hubs. Probably that would simply make concorde call for concorde dreads to come, or something. Polaris frigate vs dreadnaught would be interesting... "/kill strikes you perfectly wrecking for 1000000000000 damage" Polaris frigs don't have hi slots. I hope GMs don't need hi slots to enter console commands.
sonofollo	Posted - 2005.10.30 08:24:00 - [56] id like to see an event where one of these carriers is stolen and run through empire (perhaps the sanshas and blood raiders could team up for this theft)
Jon Xylur	Posted - 2005.10.30 10:42:00 - [57] I'd rather see Monolyx return to bring doom on all. It would eb cool ifa Serpentis fleet made it's way to a highly populated system and somehow opened a Cyno field and summoned Sarpati in hid Titan to bring dooom on all.
