Myrmidon needs to drop a high slot or two, drop its turret oomph, and have more drone space and THAT'S RIGHT I'M GOING TO SUGGEST IT AGAIN +1 controllable drone per level of advanced drone interfacing.

Not per level of Battlecruiser, this way you get the bonus drones only if you skill for bonus drones on your way to becoming a carrier pilot anyways. That's right, I'm saying that you should be able to field, say, 10 medium drones. Or maybe 7 or 8 heavy drones, with a bay limit of 175/200.

Maybe tie the bay limit to BC skills so you start with 100m3u at level 1, 125 and level 2, 150 at 3, 175 at 4, and 200 at 5.

It's a ****ed drone ship, it's supposed to have drones. Look at the description: It pretty much screams I HAVE LOTS OF LOWSLOTS AND DRONE BOOSTS. Doesn't this thing not even get a mining bonus at the moment? Trivial maybe to some but ridiculous when you consider that for a drone ship, it's not got all that much in the way of drones!

So yes. Let's have a drone ship, built for drone users! Let's have our glorious drone ship not have much in the way of guns, but much in the way of tanking! Let's have our ship scale strongly according to skill levels, so a non-drone user won't get much out of here but if you bother to train up BC, drones, t2 drones, and advanced drone interfacing, you can send out a squadron of mini-fighters.

Any fool can hop in a Brutix and make it work, let's go for something a little nontraditional here: a dedicated drone boat that doesn't have the obvious HP and natural weapon system (or all around battleshipness) or ECM power of a Dominix, and doesn't have the speed or disposability of a Vexor or the flexibility, but is something in its own class: an actual drone ship, a minicarrier.

Drones need more love anyways. Including drone repair and damage boosting modules we can fit as high slots.
