Which one, what would you say, if both are solo / small Gang fitted would have the upper hand.
I currently fly a Rokh very well, but I was thinking of getting into an Eos ...
So I really would like to hear a generaly CS vs BS opinion, and a Rokh vs all or Eos vs All specific optinion
Thanks lads.

I never like these hypothetical scenarios because if they just locked eachother and hit all their damage / tank modules the battleship would usually win.
Theres lots of ways a command ship could beat a battleship though... probably more ways a battleship could beat a command ship though so im gonna go with.
Battleship.

I fly EOS and i don't think there are a lot of Battleships that could break it's tank solo.

And the EOS can fit 5 OGRE IIs and 5 Heavy Ecm drones. Both would give a BS big problems.

Edited by: dalman on 12/01/2007 11:27:09 It's very simple.
A solo fitted commandship vs a solo fitted battleship: the battleship will always win. (*edit* - assuming both ships are set up in the same manner. Ofc we could for example have a nano-sleipnir that a slow BS can't hurt etc)
Otherwise the BS pilot just ****s @ EVE.
But it isn't very common that you get such a thing as a "perfect 1vs1". When you set up for solo playing, you generally want something versatile. And the commandship then have alot of pros to consider. Like: More agile - if you need to run cause you get jumped or something, you'll warp faster (unless a nano-BS ofc). Much better locktime - the slow lock-time of a BS will often leave you cursing a target that warped before you had it locked. With a commandship, you'll catch more ppl. Medium guns - better tracking makes it easier to deal with smaller targets etc.
The same kinda goes for small gangs.

Its realy a hard question to say a CS vs a BS. as the CS can be a sniper vulture with crapp dmg. or an Eos with its crazy DPS adn tank. or a absolution that hurts like ****. And the BS can be a blasterthron with 7x neutron II and dual repped with injector. or a t1 cruise raven with crapp DPS.
In general, if both fully t2 fitted.. ill go for a damage dealing BS, if you get in range that is. Versitality though ill go for a CS. example: A t2 neutron blasterthrons dmg isnt matched at many places. and a blasterohks passive tank is VERY hard to break solo. nontheless hard in a CS.
An blaster astarte can put up lots of DPS. but a vulture can tank like a god, same to the eos (put if Nosed its pretty doomed if not Nosing / injecting self)..
Short: its a relative question

I would say it depends what CS against what BS...if the BS deals explosive damage and on CS it's a weak point, then definetly BS would win.

CS. Without a doubt.
Unless it's a noob CS pilot versus a good BS pilot. That's the only way the BS could possibly win. Still, it wouldn't be easy. Seems a lot of posts on this thread are from BS pilots who only have a vague idea of what a CS can do. :P

Well I have only pvped on test server so my oppion my not be very valid, but I would say CS. Reasons: Most CS pilots will be better skilled compared to the BS pilot in "most" cases. CS are much more versitile. If they have some knowledge of what they are doing or know what who is in the area they will be ready to take it down. When I battled a guy on test server a guy could not kill my sleipnir with any of the Gal BS's. However, I knew what ship he would be using no ECM was used. When I went against the Meg and the Hyperion I had an active tank and managed to kill him right about the time I ran out of cap and HP where falling fast. Agint the Domi I figured he would be Nosing me so I went with a passive tank and he didn't last.
Again this was on test server, and I don't PVP much so take what you will from what I have said.

I would say yes people see the stats and train soloy to get in one and than don't have very good support skills. However I'm guessing it is not very common.
There are probably far more CS pilots that have well over 30mil SP or over 45mil like myself. But there are also Noob pvp players like myself .

Edited by: Def Antares on 12/01/2007 18:35:37 thanks guys. after i heard a lot of general BS vs CS opinions (and very good statements, thanks), i'd be glad to hear something more specific. as i said, i can fly a rokh very good (noob BS pilot arguments dont count). either with blasters or rails. since the price tag is ABOUT the same as the Eos, and i also have all skills to fly the eos (armour tank, blasters, drones) (of course except the CS specific skills). using quickfit, the eos deals way more dps than the rokh, and i thought it was very versatile, since you could either just jam, or deal more damage, with drones. on the other hand a rokh has a lot more HPs ... well ... alone from quickfit i'd say an Eos is better, but it doesnt take into account complicated stuff like heavy nos ... do you think its worth the 2 month training for it, if you could just fly a rokh?

The reason you haven't gotten a specific answer is because there isn't one. There is no "best" ship. You've gotten the correct answers - there are situations the Astarte can defeat a battleship in, and situations a battleship can defeat an Astarte in. It's a pointless question, really. At the end of the day, every ship has it's strengths and weaknesses.

I use to fly an EOS almsot exclusively.. got lots of kills, lots of pods, and it was a blast.
Then i ran into a multiple nos raven. Thats where the dream ended. I was doing plenty of damage, but after the Nos cleaned me out (yes i was injecting, but that doesnt last forever) I was done.
good fight. But as it is... Multiple nos = dead CS. :(

dual repped cap injected blasterthron would kill a cs.... considering the same skills t2 cruise missile, cap injected raven with XL shield booster and 2 heavy nos = tricky it all depends who deals what damage...

sad but true. A command ship would have to be 100% passive otherwise.

The fun part is the tier 3 BS. No room for nos (Assuming they are fit to kill things and not nos/weak DPS) Then the command ship will win. But I agree if the BS has nos the CS will lose. BS's HP buffer takes too long to chew through.
