I've said it on my blog, but I'll stick it here too:
Give the Caldari and the Amarr the biggest general purpose bays, and the best of the other function.
Give the Minmatar the next biggest general purpose bay.
Give the Gallente the smallest general purpose bay, to make up for having the most flexible ship range.
My asbestos suit is ready for the flames.
Really that would just be a penalty to the Gallente and to a lesser extent the Minmatar. To be honest I'd rather not be relegated to 5 mediocre industrial ships, all of which failing to compete directly with competitors just because a few now even more lackluster in-between's. |

Is a ship with a 50,000 m3 ore bay mediocre?
Depends, what do the other ships have?

And you said that Amarr/Caldari would have "best of the other function." What is that function? I had assumed, apparently incorrectly, that that referred to new functionalities/bays potentially being added. Your post failed to mention any trade off's the Gallente on Minmatar would be getting in return, only stating that undefined flexibility leads to being penalized in 2 other areas, one of which also apparently wasn't defined in that post as well. |
