What is needed for that is less bloviating and more courage. There are multiple coalitions with significant capital fleets - and yet instead of engaging each other to create some actual content they prefer to sit in dry dock and complain about the blue donut. To the Goons, et al., instead of complaining and demanding unneeded CCP changes, why not just go deploy your fleets and see what you can accomplish in the current setup instead? I don't know why you think you get to have an opinion about this. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws." One of ours, ten of theirs.

Congratulations, you have now demonstrated Total Ignorance. Yes, it's capitalized. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

Sure you want sov changed, but changes that simply result in the same thing... pointless. Thats where other changes come in such as nerfs to invincible capital and subcap fleets. The changes listed here are simply to fix empire sprawl. Yep, still gotta nerf logi into the ground eventually, too.

How's that related to the "letter" at hand, signed by all the stars of our blue doughnut and then some? Because the situation that allows such massive fleets to reign supreme will remain, unless they nerf logi to stop the zero sum fleet fight equation. Right now, if a smaller fleet goes up against a larger one and cannot break their reps (which is rather likely), the smaller fleet simply should not engage at all. If they nerf logi so that people actually have a chance to do lasting damage, then smaller forces gain a relevancy that is greater than zero. And not just in sov, but at every level of combat. "Go down fighting" would actually mean something besides just whelping to no effect. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

Goons are scared, hence the propaganda machine. They did not break anything. It was already broken because CCP did not do a good job. Using mechanics as they exist is not "breaking" anything.

This point I never really understood. How do empty systems sustain players? Moons? With the now very limited income amount? They can also be harvested in unclaimed systems. Anoms? Again: empty systems? PI? Should I start counting Interbus Pocos in Sov 00? What else is there that I don't see? Renting. Take large amounts of space, make people who want to live there pay tribute, use said tribute for SRP and other beneficial things. And thanks to the economy of scale, large numbers are needed to win. But thanks to CCP screwing up null income so badly at the conceptual level, the numbers needed to win cannot be reasonably sustained by the income derived from living there, hence the need to expand.

The way to nerf cap fleets is to remove their ability to be invincible death machines, key to this is dealing with the thing that makes them so hard to kill, RR. Yep. Reps are the problem with a lot of the game. Infinitely scalable, infinitely sustainable, and more powerful per single pilot than a dps ship (as a general rule anyway). They are why a smaller can only evade or whelp against a large fleet. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."
