A gang of battleships could catch and take down a lonely frig. False?
One of those cases requires a whole lot of stupidity on the pilot's account. |

To answer the fleet of battleships v. the fleet of frigates question. A fleet of battleships would have to fit specifically to shoot smaller ships to survive (obviously) However when fleet compositions change with a mix of smaller and larger (non battleships), the battleship fleet's chances of winning drop exponentially.
In other words if a battlship fits to fight frigates, it will die to larger ships.
Obvious exceptions include: drone boats, ships with tracking and neut bonuses. The battleships without such bonuses become huge liabilities.
The disadvantage is not the fit, but how sig/speed effect damage. For the skill points smaller ships can tanke easier than larger ships because they should take less damage.
If 2 such fleets collide and the BS pilots aren't completely braindead, then frigs will die by the second due to webs and paints. You can outrun the tracking of one BS, but you can't keep transversal up on a gang of them while dualwebbed and dualpainted.
Just Huginn/Rapier/Loki DDD up for drone bunny assign, free fire on frigs :D No, frigs don't tank through 150 warrior IIs, and smartbombing frigs are rare. |

He's getting more and more overt.
Is it too early to cite Godwin's Law yet? Is that when this thread stops OP? Well the ones he can't answer, he ignores.
But battleships have bigger engines, how come they cannot kite frigates. And they also on't rep as fast as frigates, frigate reps rep each 3seconds, BS reps take 10seconds. Battleships are completely useless. |
