Oh-oh and while we're at it let's add a faction version of said super drake with an extra launcher, mmmm.... (i think i might have just wet myself)
Dude, stop... just stop... my heart can't handle the overload...

We had new T3 ships promised some time back, and T3 battlecruisers was suggested. That given that these are coming mean that these are going to be new T3 ships?
GIven that T3 cruisers are 400-500m+ (a cheap Tengu puts you out about 450m at the moment), T3 battlecruisers will probably be about double that. All the people predicting blobfests are either very rich or er... stupid... Tier 3, not tech 3. Why would they be ridiculous, these are tier 3 BCs, they'll have BPOs and BPCs, production will be like any other tech 1 ship. Also from the dev blog Quote:They will be capable of similar damage output as a battleship but obviously all that damage comes at a price.They wonGÇÿt be able to tank like a battleship, but what they lack in the tanking department the right pilot should be able to somewhat make up for with speed and distance management. But a shield hurricane is already ridiculous DPS with little tank but it can actually get this....HIT BCs with medium autos instead of larges.
I assume they're thinking Tech III, made from Sleeper guts and all that.

Sincerely hope they realise what it will do to Eve to have BC speed/size BS damage/range ships running around at close 100% insurance return. Only way I can see it not breaking everything is if they are made into BC sized destroyers (loads of guns but laughable tanks) and even then its going to upset a crap-load of areas.
They'll make life interesting.
Pos's in C1 wormholes will need better defenses than they've been getting away with.
May or may not prove to be the ganking ships of choice.
Will be countered in fleets by small ships that rip through them without getting hit. When you combine this with the super cap nerfs, it's looking like a renaissance for smaller ships. Could destroyers find a role tearing these new BCs up? Assault frigates?
Relax. Make sure you have your towel, and don't panic.

Dbars Grinding wrote:wow this is fail. BC really? Dumbest thing i have ever seen. We need more Battleships since most of pvp is done in BC now ne ways.
Of course, since three battleships per race and black ops battleships just simply aren't enough!
The problem is, you add another battleship and nothing really changes... at best teh paradigm shifts and a new type of BS is seen more often on the field.
However, with a new BC that wields BS guns, there are definite disturbances in the force. Smaller ships that had little to no role before may find roles now as ships that can kill these BS's without getting shot by them. Larger ships have something to fear. Pos's in C1 wormholes suddenly need to beef up thier defenses.
There's a notable shift favoring smaller ships happening in Eve. It's getting interesting.

Why would I fly anything else?
To shoot the smaller ships you can't shoot with your medium ship with large guns?
