An APC is a track. As are IFVs and ARVs.

One weekend roam and I would crash the Insurance market. That's why it won't work. Too many targets would lose too many hulls to me.

While i don't have any concrete ideas about how to do someting like this, I've always felt that if EVE has insurance, it should maybe be a player run thing (with automation support of some kind) rather than 'lose ship, get isk' like it is now. |

How screwed would you be?

I'm not sure where the scam is then in an SRP scheme where losing my ship in an alliance strategic op means I get a good portion (usually all) of my fitted ship's cost straight back into my wallet.
If you choose to spend the ISK on a replacement ship, that ISK goes into the wallets of players who import those ships from other areas, either from highsec markets or manufacturing sites elsewhere.
