Actually youre the one that is wrong. EOS pilots are complaining because they lost their overpowered ship. You are making this look like EOS pilots are complaining about the role and racial bonus of the EOS wich is not the case. Because if that had been the case there would have been equal amount of threads about how crappy eos is, as a fleet command BEFORE THE NERF.
No one complained. Everyone was happy with their solo pwn mobile. Now youre trying to play the sympathy card. And with the sympathy card you think you can get capital mods on eos so it can rule again with 10 ecm drones or 5 warrior IIs going 12600m/s like some of the proposals. FAIL..
1)The eos always sucked as a fleet command ship, the reason people didn't complain was that it had other uses.
2)I honestly think there would be no problem with giving it the ability to fit DCUs, it's only like giving other ships capital guns if you limit them to using the cap guns with medium ammo... a DCU on an astarte gives less damage then the blaster would,but allows the ship to maintain its niche, a role of it's own because let's face it: the eos just isn't useful as a bonus giving ship.
3)The people who think that the eos was fine before the nerf are idiots, but that does not make their arguments of the eos being underpowered now any less valid. You seem to think that because there are some amarr ships that have no use that it makes it ok. It doesn't. Especially when the ship in question is something as skill intensive as a command ship. Quite frankly complaining about the uselessness of a couple ships that take at most a week to train for, and using that as an argument concerning a ship that takes many months to train for is even worse then arguing that the Eostarte of the past was fine the way it was.
4)If this idea were to go through in order to field 10 ecm drones the eos would need to have less dps then a gank fit frigate,and as far as warrior IIs going 12km/s, they can already do that with the right ships, and realistically speaking the eos would then be no more useful for frig killing then a hughin.
