Hello Eve Forum,
I don't use the forums much but I've had this idea running around in my head for a while now and after discussing it with my Corp I wanted to get the opinion of a wider audience.
In my personal opinion I feel that the tier 3 battleships (Maelstrom, Hyperion, Abbadon and Rokh) are under appreciated, they are slated on the forums and largely ignored. I think this is due to a lack of variation, with the tier 1 and 2 battleships you have the option of Navy Issues or tech 2 varients which you don't have with the tier 3. I've been thinking about this and would love to see the tier 3's get the same treatment, now Navy Issues are obvious but what role would their tech 2 varient fill? After some thought I think a Battleship class Command ship would be a wonderful tech 2 varient for the tier 3 ships, it would give them a central role in fleet actions and be something unique in themselves instead of being another Marauder or Black ops ship.
I think my idea would give the tier 3 battleships a new breath of life as well as adding a new and exciting class of ship to the game. I'd love to hear your thoughts. |

I get what your saying, but that's no different than the progression from AF's to HAC. The game already contains many examples of progressively larger and more powerful ships fulfilling the simular roles. Players would still be required to train for the command BC before they could train a Command BS just like they would have to train any other smaller scale ship before moving on to it's larger counterpart. People would still use Command BC's in small or mid scale fleets where they should logically be, but in larger fleets that role should be filled by a larger, more durable ship and I believe a Command Battleship option would do the job wonderfully. |

It seems that alot of you don't like the idea of BSCS's and that's fair enough as I wanted peoples opinions, but I've yet to hear any alternatives suggested.
It seems that people do want Navy and T2 varients for the tier3 3 BS's so my challenge to you all is now this, give me your suggestion on what the T2 varients should be. It's easy to mock someone elses ideas, so think up one of your own and post it here.
Just to clarify you must give a T2 varient for the tier 3 BS's that doesn't currently exist, I'm not interested in more Marauder or Black Op's ships.. the game has those already. |

A nice idea Skorpynekomimi, but wouldn't you rather see something new than a rehashed tier 1 or 2 T2 BS in a new skin ? |

We don't need T2 versions of the tier 3 BS's, just like we didn't need T3 cruisers or the new tier 3 BC's. There is alot in the game we don't need to have, but we like having it. I only want the tier 3 BS's to be given the same options as the tier 1 and 2 BS's have, nothing more, nothing less and I have thought up some ideas about what those options could be.
So far mxzf all your posts have been purely to criticize, so how about you come up with some useful ideas of your own instead of trolling other peoples posts just to tell them why their ideas aren't good enough for you. |
