I think they should have their defense increased significantly.
I would like for them to be able to use BS sized repairers with the cap/armour/shields to go with it. They should still only use medium weapons though.

Since BC's are supposed to be halfway between Cruisers and Battleships, their sig radius should be in the middle too.
ON the same argument so should their firepower, but they are slow and week in comparison to a BS.
Thats why they suck, i had a prophacy for a while until i realised this, better flying a zealot imho.
This is why I think that all BCs should have their own weapons and ammo types. Otherwise I'd agree that it's pointless to make them tougher than cruisers but diminish their effectiveness by having larger than necessary sig rads. They need the tools to punch their weight otherwise they are effectively still as effective as cruisers. 
As for the Brutix having a signature radius of 300, and a Typhoon only having 320, well that speaks for itself frankly.
Come on CCP drop the sig rads of BCs.

I gotta say I agree with this. A BC has about half the firepower and defence of a BS, and its half the size.. so why almost the same sig? Although with the mk2 changes all the BC's do get even sexier 
And while you may worry about a brutix's sig being 300m, ever seen what happens when you activate its mwd to try and close on a target??
Now THAT is the deffinition of extreme PAIN.
(im not saying that is wrong, thats the price it's going to pay for uber close range spankage)

Destroyers I think need far more love than BCs. Good BC set up kills HACS. Good Destroyer set - up killing AFs? Please post here.

15K faction web, 20k scram, tracking disruptors, guns with ammo that provide a 15k optimal range.

I liked BCs better when they were able to use Large weapons (on the test server), back then they made since why they were heavy and had large sig. radiuses. I forget why CCP nerfed them so badly before releasing them on Tran shard.

I agree with Fraenors changes.
In the (current) navy, BCs are basically battleships with the heavy plating removed and extra engines added. They are anticruiser vessels, able to defend against a cruiser and have the firepower of a battleship.
In EVE, BCs are worthless - they have barely more firepower then a cruiser, and worse defense then a cruiser(due to sig radius and agility). They also cost 5x as much.
Please CCP, listen to something of which everyone agrees to for once - don't do something that leaves half the playerbase angry and ****ed off, and for once, do something that we all agree.
Giving battlecruisers a fitting reduction/cap usage bonus to battleship guns will make them the historical vessels - warships that were as fast and manueverable as a cruiser with the firepower of a battleship(Unfortunately naval commanders tended to treat BCs as BSes and they died fast - but thats a different story).
Or make them the eve "halfway" battleship/cruiser - halfway meaning defenses and firepower equivalent to approximately half. Lower the sig radius to cruiser + 33%, boost agility to the same. Currently battlecruisers are sitting ducks - without the speed and agility to compete with cruisers, nor the firepower and tank to compete with battleships.
Please CCP, for once do something of which the entire playerbase agrees.
