In a lagless environment BoB would wipe a floor with goonys. The more lag the more difference in numbers matters. Even if its 300 t1 noobships it still takes 10+ minutes only to get a lock and then another 10+ minutes to activate the guns. Skill, tactics, ship fitting - does not matter anymore.
If someone think that goonys are capable pvpers I must say you have z e r o clue.
In fact one reason that the T2 snipe battleship is so popular in every alliance is that this type of ship are lag-resistant.
Playing a T2 battleship is not very difficult. Align, lock and shot. It is less affected by lag than ships such as suicide close range boat that have to get close to its target before firing and so have to do complex trajectory to be successfull.
A lag free environment in favor of bob ?
Not sure.
netherless i want a lag free environnement !!!

Although the Persians were many in number, and their manpower clearly exceeded that of the Greeks, estimates of their actual strength vary widely, from an army as small as 20,000 to as large as 5,000,000 (Greek historian Herodotus numbered the Persian army at 2,000,000); the most widely accepted number is between 200,000 and 300,000."[/i]

Looks like your numbers were a bit off. Maybe you could try reading a book?
+1 shadowsword you are right.
it is funy to discover previously historical citation that come more from the legend than from the reality.
Do not forget also that the strict discipline and the full militarisation of spartian society was in fact a weakness which prevent the adaptation of the society to new technologies and tactical/strategic change.
Spartian army were beaten by THEBES, by MACEDONIA and then by rome....
The battle against thebes (See Battle of leuctra)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Leuctra
is very interesting to study as it show as the classical and strict tradition of battle in sparta army made them predictable and ready to be defeated.
