and the 35 bandwidth 60 bay thing the algos and magus get is really bad. if you want more drone damage, give it a bigger damage bonus. giving me the option to downgrade to slower, larger, easier to kill drones that can't hit anything on a destroyer is really strange, and having no spares is awful.
the mwd sig bonuses are iffy. it's a kiting bonus, it does very little for brawling fits.
other than that all I can think of is how their actual reasonable speed makes the T1 destroyers look really bad, especially corax and any kind of armor rigged fits. I don't get why tac destroyers, interdictors and now these all get proper speeds, but T1 can't move at all. |

Does the MJD skill bonus apply to the MJFG?
So do you get ~5s spool up with All V or only 6.75s from the Command Destroyer Bonus? |

Pontifex seems to be really bad off. Lowest PG (its an amarr ship...?) Low damage potential due to lack of drone bandwidth.
Second slowest MWD speed and align time. Second slowest base velocity.
Also, why bother giving the Stork second highest base velocity if you are just going to shaft it with higher mass, giving it the longest align time and slowest MWD speed. Well, at least the stork gets the passive PG.
Also, Bifrost and Magus will be arguably the most popular... Both being fast and agile, along with skirmish links. |

The problem that I'm seeing is that anchoring in a fleet doctrine which isn't specifically a fast moving/kiting doctrine is pretty much dead now as this new AOE MJD has the ability to remove your ships from logistical rep range and with the addition of RR falloff you have a much tighter bubble to where you can turtle with a doctrine meaning its easier than ever for a single person to MJD all your dudes off and force them to warp off and back to the fight. Rewarping to the fight is a moot point if its your logistics who get blinked as everything will be dead by the time they return.
The point I'm getting at is there needs to be a counter to this which is not just killing the ship attempting to do this as the simple counter to that is to fling 5-6 of these at a hostile fleet and watch them scatter while not being able to do anything about it.
Please do not release this without there being a competent counter because this will honestly kill all fleet combat which isn't cerbs and ishtars. |

People will need to start fitting scrams.
The new HIC scripts make even more sense considering this (I'm surprised no-one mentioned it in that thread tbh) |

If this kind of tactic becomes really common it is always an option to either defend your logi/fleet with long range scrams to use on the incoming Command Dessies or, if you don't have another option, simply scram your own fleet.

To be fair, there is absolutely no IF, about it. These will be warped in, via probes, and immediate spool up.
You'd be absolutely insane not to. |

CCP RiseCommand Destroyers!
Second, how exactly does the Micro Jump Field Generator work? This module is exactly like a Micro Jump Drive except that when it fires, it pulls any ships nearby along with it for the jump. There's a lot of specifics to consider here but the big restrictions you need to know are that you cannot use this module in high sec, you can not pull invulnerable targets (ships that have just undocked or just jumped through a gate and are still cloaked), you can not move capitals, and you can not jump into starbase shields. You CAN however do a lot of really crazy thing such as pull bombs that are midair, pull dictor bubbles or chain multiple jumps in a row using several Command Destroyers. As for numbers, we have a base spool up time of 9 seconds, a reactivation delay of 160 seconds, a pull radius of 6km from the ship and a jump distance of 100km. The module requires 5 PG and 31 CPU to fit and requires the same skill as normal MJDs to use.
Whilst i really like this idea, (especially that you make links available on them) here are my thoughts.
If this modules works like other MJD (can only be shut down via scram), what is stopping players from diving into a bubble to save titans?
What happens when you use this device near starbase structures, marauders, Deployed bubbles and drones?
Can it be used to reposition Cyno jammers?
Big one: How in hells name are Bomber fleets going to feel when the vast majority of the fleet that has been dragged into a bubble and is about to be dropped, just vanishes? lets use an example:
You setup a MJD beacon using the dessie 100km off a trapped Rattlesnake, you activate the MJD, but halfway through cycle you also activate the MJFG, so the moment you land on the Rattlesnake, it is dragged to safety 100km away. Extending further into this question. What if the ship you are SAVING has a cyno fitted? are we allowing cynos to be bumped around to safety now?
Now i admit, the idea of saving ships by warping in on them and then activating sound fun, and good for gameplay. but i can see an aweful lots of very exploitave behaviour.
Another example, if this ship can drag mining barges too, whats stopping mining bots in null from also having these dessies orbiting them? so not only they warp out when a neut enters system, but also jump 100km away from the warpin, making it even harder to catch them.
If this is going ahead, it sounds like ALOT of restrctions need to be made, or atleast another form of shutting these little monsters down.
Also, Mr Rise that is one fantastic beard you had during the championships |

You can scramble them to turn off the MJD, it's not a great solution though.
The minimum activation time with max skills was quoted in this thread to be about 5 seconds, even with the sig bloom a lot of cruisers will struggle to lock these before they get teleported which doesn't feel particularly reasonable. |

IIRC CCP has already stated that the MJFG won't affect capitals.
Q: will the new HIC scram shut down these new MJFG aswell? |

- Regular missiles/rockets and defender missiles (in the last case, what happens?)
- Probes

Do you really think the only counter to this should be sticking 3 dudes in proteus with the express purpose of tackling MJD dessies so they dont **** up your world?
Because I guarantee you that you've killed BS fleet combat for all but the most dedicated which doesn't sound like you're helping the sandbox become more sandboxy by removing an entire class of ships from use. Who knows, Maybe BC fleets will die again too. |
