My counter for your set up...
Cov ops.
It would take a while to fly to you... but with a couple of clever warp to 100s using surrounding objects in space and a couple of BMs I could be on top of you... at this point.. my fleet will warp to me.
Oops... you forgot to tank!! Saying 'point' makes me feel like teh Ub3r P\/P3r

Edited by: welsh wizard on 28/02/2008 02:41:23 Basically its too easy for any ship to travel the 240km to your carrier. Carriers aren't meant to evade combat when they're frontlined (and frontlined basically means anywhere on grid), they're just not quick enough in any way shape or form. perhaps if ships were a hell of alot slower or you were 600km away or something but until Eve encompasses that, (which it never will) this idea doesn't add anything that a carrier fit normally already does. All it'd take is a bit of lag and a relatively quick interceptor and the 'point' in this tactic is nullified.
If theres one positive aspect to your idea its that tactically, splitting the combat into 2 focal points can be advantageous but only for the minute or two it takes your opponents to improvise.
It's good that people attempt to come up with new setups, it really is. Personally I think the people who immediately hurl insults at you for suggesting something are far more infuriating than yourself but this is the internet afterall. You need to accept the criticism though, in this particular case its basically all correct.

Or it can just drop a probe.

Never even thought of that. lol..
One scan probe to get a warp to zero :)
I hope the OP builds this carrier and then sees how flawed it is when a scout brings the enemy fleet ontop of him in 30 seconds.

what im enojoying most about this thread is when the OP is saying to otehrs that go learn the game... the funny thing he himself doesnt even know the basics and some of the points hes making.
he doesnt have a very good idea how drones/fighters work he doesnt have a very good idea how easy it is to get a interceptor to 15km/s he doesnt have a idea how probes work he doesnt have a idea how real fleet pvp works he doesnt even have a idea how fast 15km/s really is in the game
so telling other go learn the game, is rather rude when you yourslef have no clue what you are really talking.
i know im rude... but i cant just go any other way. stop posting... your makeing yourself look like a ******. this thread would acctually carry some weight if you acctually knew something about game mechanics. but as you dont....this make you look like a joke. ---------------------------------- This is Me, fighting stupidity one post at a time.

But the rudeness was initiated by everyone else. If theres a demonstration of ignorance it pays to be polite when telling people they're wrong.

But you probably don't fly them and so I can't take your word for it anyway.
This character flies a Thanatos, as I previously mentioned in this thread. Carrier wise, I also have characters that fly Chimerae and Nidhoggurs.
Maybe the Archon is the exception, I dunno!
(The above being easily verified by looking on either the GS or BoB killboards)
