And as the final mark - we have the mightiest capital ships completely defenseless against some sort of very fast and small enemies..

clever enough to overwrite the laws of science fictions

Which laws are these?

But i wish to ask you - what about his next step? We already have Bastion modules and Mobile depots working on "holy spirit". No fuel needed.
3000 m3 structure with 50m3 volume if packed. Foil?

The worst offender in this regard has to be missile explosions .In eve if you are small enough you can somehow be unaffected by explosions that have totally engulfed you interesting science for sure.

This is just a result of it being more difficult graphically to have to missile miss and blow up near you. But yeah, lol.

1. They're fueled by the same magic that fuels your capacitor and your warp drive. What's the problem?

2. Regular containers are smaller when repackaged as well. 50m3 to 3000 m3 isn't a big deal. And the lunar lander was pretty much made out of foil as well. And these depots are cutting-edge technology.

3. There isn't much difference between insufficient point defenses and no point defenses. The mightiest battleship or carrier from the days of WWII could be rendered crippled or doomed by a single torpedo dropped by a 1-man fighter. Or a kamikaze strike. Also, the death star.

You actually are able to create something from nothing. Just because you can't find out what source gives you this "nothing" and how this "nothing" turns into "something". But anyway there are some rules to make this "wonder" work. You know - some specific machinery, some technical solutions, which are familiar to you in their concept.
Or as example some kind of well known technic, you're not able to make real. Dark energy power generator, railgun, antimatter bomb. You know what it is, but you don't know how to create a working prototype.

I don't know who is this new genius, who decide himself (or herself) clever enough to overwrite the laws of ... basics of gamedesign.

Explain me please - are the starship engineers complete idiots? In all 4 empires?

You want bad. Missile explosion size and missile area of effect are two different things.

whenever i play video games, i tend to operate with a bit of Suspension of Disbelief... if you're going to nitpick the details, it takes the fun away...


explain to me why there is so much noise in New Eden... what particulate is floating around that allows the sound to travel so well?

I m Amarr my capacitor is fueled by Antimatter. Or do you want to claim that nuclear subs also run on holy spirit just cause you cant see the fuel ?

Referring back to the OP, one of my long standing favourites is ship masses; having km long Battleships, with metre's-thick tungsten based armour, only weighing in at 100,000 tonnesGǪ

(that's the same as a modern aircraft carrier GÇô take the same average density and apply to something the size of an Eve battleship and youGÇÖre around the 50 million tonne markGǪ)
