As a long time mechwarrior/battletech player, the first thing I realized looking at this, is that "Headhunting" is going to become a real risk for leaders now. Corporations are going to use battle recordings, scouts, spies and other intel gathering means to determine who is the FC, WC, ect for their enemy and if smart they are going to rip out the leadership asap to drop gang bonuses. From a game standpoint it makes sense, you would be able to use your sensors to determine the nexus of communication traffic and react accordingly.
Now if only we could get improved point defense systems and have them interlinked through the command net. :)

Nobody has to train spec skills, as it will not be that smart to be in a command ship -the only command ship- at the front line.
Survivability and these changes really make me think we'll see a T2 dedicated BS and/or Dread class command ship in the future. Or a hell of a lot of logistics keeping proximity to the FC.

Pretty soon we will not be about to actually see the space around us at all. I guess what Im saying is that it is going to become total sensory overloaded with to much information.
It's kinda like how they had to retrain the propjocks and early jet pilots when they switched to computerized heads up displays. The old timers were so used to visually scanning for targets they neglected the radar screen. Sure it was more efficient to use the electronics, but push button warfare loses mystique points to eyes on the bogey dogfighting.
