Riley Moore Sentinum Research 325	Posted - 2012.02.15 09:17:00 - [1] - Quote Any additional* titan on the same grid reduces all capital class ships electronics by 33%. Stacking without penalty. 3* titans on grid = no locking capabilities from ALL capital ships (including supercaps) on the same grid. This simulates the vast electronic interference a titan produces. Bases on standing or somesuch. Or just make a hardcap of 4 titans per grid, any more = useless capital fleet. Now you can use your 30 titans to attack 15-30* odd targets at the same time on different grids/systems. * Numbers are open for balance discussion Large volumes of highly researched Ammo, drones, charges and ship bpo's.

I can live with that. + 1 I worked it out a bit in the scc-lounge Riley Moore > 4+ titans on same grid = so much electronic interference from the vast systems on the titans rendering all capital and super capitals on the same grid unable to lock anything Riley Moore > lets add in more negative effects: 200% increase in time to warp, cap recharge -50%, resistances -50% Riley Moore > the super carriers could be like 20 on grid, any more = penalties across grid on all supercaps Riley Moore > 200 carriers max, same penalties Riley Moore > then you're forced to split to different grids Riley Moore > it does fit into the scifi stuff though, large ships do create so much electronic "noise" Riley Moore > you can explain it that way (lore wise) Riley Moore > too much electronic noise from other ships causing electronic's failures across vast systems on titans, capitals and supers carriers Riley Moore > subcaps are small enough to not be effected by it Large volumes of highly researched Ammo, drones, charges and ship bpo's.

Also, sub caps should be effected as well. I'm not 100% behind your figures, but I approve of the idea behind it. It will not be something that prevents you from spamming a titan/sc/cap/sub cap blob on the grid, but it will have its side effects that will definitely not make you or your brosefs happy pandas. Can't put them per corp, or per fleet or per alliance, you need to have the penalties per grid. Otherwise you'll end up with 30+ fleets all blue to each other each contraining X titans/supers. Same with corp or alliances. Sub caps need to not be effected so they can actually take out the bigger ships if they blob. I know it's not an elegant solution, but it's the best I can come up with to counter the more=better problem. Large volumes of highly researched Ammo, drones, charges and ship bpo's.

Until you use your grey mass and realise if the enemy has 30 titans on the grid, they'll be useless. Thats an expensive wall you're bringing.
