Some quick throwing around of some ideas:
1. Number of industrials per race
Three would be a good number in my oppinion, both Minmatar and Gallente have 3+ haulers and a Caldari one could relatively easy be created (Bustard w/ T1 Shaders). Only Amarr would lack a third industrial design. The haulers should be one each of the following categories:
1. Agile/Tanky Haulers
2. "Generalist" Haulers
3. "Specialist" Haulers
2. Industrial specialization
2.1 Agile/Tanky Haulers
They should have the smallest cargo of the bunch and should specialize to either be tanky OR agile. Maybe even forego a cargo bonus altogether and just give them slightly larger base-cargos. The specializations would of course be:
Caldari: Shield Tanky (Shield HP and/or Shield Resists)
Amarr: Armor Tanky (Armor HP and/or Armor Resists)
Minmatar: Fast agile (agility bonus)
Gallente: Efficient agile (largest cargohold, agility bonus, less agile than Minmatar)
Cargo capacity should go: Gallente > Amarr > Caldari > Minmatar
2.2 "Generalist" Haulers
The industrials we know and love/hate, only in an improved form. They should keep the traditional agility/cargo-boni and offer some sort of balance between agility/tank and cargo, which should lie between 25k and 30k.
Cargo capacity should go: Amarr > Gallente > Caldari > Minmatar
However, Gallente and Minmatar should posses enough agility that they beat Amarr respectively Caldari in the efficency department.
2.3 "Specialist" Haulers
The biggest of the bunch ... as long as you use their additional cargoholds. Should posess a cargo of about 40-50k, with their standard cargobay being really tiny.. My suggestions would be:
Amarr: Ore specilization, tiny cargo + large orebay
Minmatar: Fuel specialization, tiny cargo + large fuelbay, albeit no JD
Caldari: PI specialization, tiny cargo + command center bay (maybe) + PI goods bay, basically a Primae in good
Gallente: no specialization-specialization, no special bay, but the largest cargobay in the T1 subcapital department, total cargo should be significantly smaller than the other specialist haulers to prevent fotm status |
