Edited by: OberFuhrer on 19/11/2006 01:41:23 Edited by: OberFuhrer on 19/11/2006 01:40:13 So, according to public information, someone has purchased an Erebus bpo in Algogille on November 6. What is also interesting is that I completely missed the fact that someone also purchased a Ragnarok bpo shortly after ASCN (or maybe it was BoB?) bought their Avatar bpo, Aug. 19 in Hrober to be specific. Now of course this does not necessarily mean someone actually has one sitting docked at a pos, but rather that they have the capability to build one.
So, BoB and ASCN adding more to their fleets? Another alliance joining in but keeping their operations hush-hush? And that all important question - who will purchase a Leviathan bpo?  
Oh also, I am NOT referring to the Erebus that was technically the first one on Tranquility as we all know that appeared to be an experiment by CCP or whomever, I assume to just make sure they work.

Been mining Veld in mine since January, surprised no one's noticed yet tbh. . .
But seriously. . . It would be just like BoB to unveil a second right about now, just for kicks.

You'd have to be pretty darned thick to build *two* titans. Its not like they do anything that they would do better in a fleet- warp portals, Uber Hauling, doomsday device, you only need one of them for that kind of thing. The price is just too phenomenal to be worth building more than one- you'd be better of spending the money on a new outpost, or something sensible like that 
It's one thing to build one, as a flag ship for your alliance and a door to those various unique abilities, but more than one would just be shameless e-peen stroking............ -----------------------------------------------

One titan can easily be tanked by a properly fit battleship.
Two, on the other hand... of different damage types...

Interesting you should mention that. All 4 doomsday device bpo's have been purchased, just not all 4 titans yet.

Thats scary to think about...an avatar + ragnarok, would basically pop any bs fleet along with all support ships and all

1 would kill anything of danger

I remember seeing in a video of fanfest when CCP showed a ragnarok with the MC logo on it, someone screamed out "Too bad we're building an Erebus!"
I doubt MC has the industrial backing to make one... but i thought it was worth bringing up.

ASCN has an assload more and it still took them a while.
Im not saying they wont have one, i just dont think they would be the next to have one.
Id imagine D2 is next.

Titans seem to have the same 'usefulness' factor as a carrier...
Great for defending space and pure useless at attacking anyone elses...
I dont think it matters BOB and ASCN are playing with theirs down south, the outcome of this war is not going to be decided by who can use their Titan more effectivly.
Its a nice trophy ship but in terms of Cost to Effectiveness both BOB and ASCN would have been better pumping out 10 motherships/carriers/dreads each...
Then again i may be wrong, i would love to be proved otherwise

its not that hard to figure out..
take the big 4 or 5 alliances..
count the ones that already have theirs and you will see who will have theirs next.
I pretty sure the next 2 months are gonna interesting..

lets look at the possibles ( red swarm - goonfleet/red alliacne have been quite but we know RA have a massive ISK machine wouldnt take much to organise esp since the coalation is on the defensive.) MC obvioulsy their links with ISS might indicate industrial assistance.
D2 possibly given they have been quite - IAC or CVA can be ruled out. EU perhaps = PURE um any of those quite northern alliances currentluy probably not at war.
BOB and ASCN as well so there are quite a few with the potential to pull it off just a matter of finding out who

I can guarantee ASCN have the resources already stored to build another and I'd bet the 2nd is already in production...what type is it? I don't know.
As for other alliances. D2 I bet have the ability. Possably even LV or some of the northern alliances aswell. Never count BOB out with putting out another either, but I'm a grunt so nothing I say is fact that's forsure.

From what I've understood there is currently three active titans (2 BoB, 1 ASCN) with another 3-6 in build by various parties.
Never thought instatravel would be this important to people...

If you read CYVOKs blog about the efforts and processes to build the titan, youll understand its no simple task. The amount of veldspar mining is horrendous. Its not even funny. It took ASCN the better part of a year to acquire the minerals, a campaign of misinformation and decoy shipyards, several outposts and an increase in refining tax.
However, there is still the possibility that CYVOK kept playing Mr. Misinformation, and had, shall we say, more than enough minerals left over? http://img154.imageshack.us/img154/9481/corpthiefcj6.gif Limits for signatures are 400x120 pixels and 24,000 bytes.

No he's absolutely correct - there are no Titans in Period Basis.
BTW: It was Sel who said we're building an Erebus even though we're not (because you know... we don't have the industrial backing and all).

Yeah, right. Goonfleet cant fight their way out of a wet paper bag without RA showing them how to do it, nevermind a dry paper bag.
