Edited by: Guillame Herschel on 05/10/2007 21:54:53 So let me get this straight.
Six turrets, no split weapons 288m sig radius (!!!!) Covert Ops cloak and Covert Ops Cyno generator FIVE mid slots (!!!!!) while keeping the 7 lows (!!!!!!!) Get to keep the 175m3 drone bay
Why would I ever want to fly a Typhoon again?

- stats might not be final anyway - no bonuses known yet - 3-400 mil pricetag with a insurance payout of 100 mil - why would you want to fly a typhoon in the first place? :P

Yep, the best slot layout ever for a ship (and race) clearly designed to shield tank, that the community has been asking for better slot layout or HP distribution for since day 1.
Head, meet desk. Desk, head. We can only hope this is one of those things that gets changed.

I'm really looking forward to this ship! 
Based on what we know already, how would you fit it?
Should it be speed and agility fitted with shields, or have armor fittings with a web and scram?

3-400 million pricetag my ass. Expect 1 billion, absolute minimum. 2 billion is more likely. That's when prices stabilize, 2 weeks after release you will pay 4 billion.
You need to expend 32 Mechanical Engineering datacores and 32 Minmatar Starship datacores to even have a CHANCE at inventing a BPC for this ship.
If ME datacores sell for 5m each and Starship datacores for 1m each, it will cost between 2 and 2.5 billion ISK on average to get an invention success, resulting in a 5-run ME -4 BPC. Even then you are not guaranteed a BPC for THIS ship, you have a 50/50 chance of getting either this one or the mission runner T2 BS.
Assuming the mission runner BS also sells really well and the 50% chance of hitting that BPC doesn't raise the average cost even further, (this is unlikely, it is a Minmatar ship, not exactly great for missioning) a max skilled production guy will have spent 2.25 billion ISK just to get the 5-run BPC. At that point he hasn't actually manufactured anything. We have no idea what the production costs of these ships are, but they're not likely to be low. Just remember that the cost of obtaining the blueprint alone adds 450 million to the price tag.

I`m a new player. Can someone explain me the logic of making a T2 BS cost more then a Capital?

...Commandships require 16 of each, yet I don't see any 500 mil Commandships. HACs require 8 of each, yet I don't see any 250 million ISK vagabonds or anything close to that. The invention costs is pretty much double that of a commandship, and most likely the same goes for the production costs. So 500 mil after the prices have stabilised isn't entirely unfeasible. 2 Billion....right. Not even 1 billion which you claimed was the absolute minimum.
If if you succeed with the invention you WILL get the ship you were aiming for since the Covert battleships are all based on the Tier 1 battleships while all of the mission runners are based on the Tier 2s. ______________________________________________ -You can never earn my respect, only lose it.
