The capacitor amount number is way off. The current base capacitor is 7031, so one of the two numbers is off.

/my guess is 8000 capacitor is correct, 9406 seems like an extremely strange and not round number

The Bastion module gives equal bonuses to optimal and falloff. Shouldn't it be a double bonus for falloff, just like for example the Tracking Enhancer or Tracking Computer? Otherwise the autocannon Vargur and in lesser degree the blaster Kronos would receive an inferior damage projection bonus to the Paladin.

Someone wants to say hallo: click me

I think you manage just fine without a new skill and without strontium. Try at least to put some effort in those excuses. Or be honest: "We put a new 8x Skill in, because we can." , is a more valid reason than that strotium lie.

That is the point. Because the Mega Pulse Paladin has such a long optimal range, it would get the full benefit of an optimal range bonus. One kilometer of optimal gives you more range than one kilometer of falloff. An autocannon Vargur would only benefit from a falloff bonus, and thus receive an inferior range bonus. It would be better to make the Bastion module give 25 percent more optimal range and 50 percent more falloff.

Not sure if beging for strontium bay or not.

Desperately needs a Damage bonus when in deployed mode to make them viable in PvP, (and make them more like mini Dreads)

Maybe / Maybe not

my point being that for a ship that size the local tank bonus isn't enough to offset not being able to receive RR in PvP, so in order to make the deployed mode a viable option in PvP there needs to be an incentive to go into it.

Basically if dreads didn't get a damage bonus siege mode wouldn't be used

and Pirate BS will still have the Damage and mobility and some fairly decent secondary bonuses (Webs and Neuts on those particular ones) and I vary rarely see the Mach, RS and NM in PvP anyway as there are now cheaper ships which are just as good.

In hi-sec: station huggers will be delighted. Good enough self rep, immune to ewar... This is an horrible thing.

energy grid upgrades is another 5 u need @x2

and adv weapon upgr @ 5 is a x6 skill

Marauders are way too expensive and skill-intensive (the latter being more important than the former) to use as a "de-facto fleet doctrine" even if they are heavily boosted. Battleship V, AWU V, EGU V, and then the Marauders skill itself which is Rank 10. You need to find hundreds of pilots that have all that and that also all have the T2 guns of your choice trained, since mixing racial types definitely doesn't work as a fleet doctrine.

Unfortunately I lack any sort of mental encyclopedia of major null-sec fleet fights and don't know of any sort of comprehensive listing of such things so the best I could do is look up Asakai (warning, lags on load) and look for T3s there. Overall between the two sides there's about 2-3 squads of Legions, half a squad of Protei, a squad and a half of Lokis, and all of *two* Tengus.

Each of those fights has, at most, a Wing of T3s on any one side.

Neither of those contain anything :| (insert joke about cloaky T3 fight here)

id want to see that

So... why not just require Tactical Weapon Configuration? Marauders already require AWU 5 which is TWC's prereq. TWC is the siege module skill. TWC is a needed stepping stone for all dreads. Etc..
