every ship class in eve got a diferent warp speed
Battleship goes 3 au/sek
cruiser goes ? au/sek
frigate goes 6 au/sek
1 au is around 149.598.000km
so a battleship goes 450.000.000km/sek
then if we look at the the range of a lightyear is around 9.470.000.000.000 km
so how fast can a Battleship move a light year.
9.470.000.000.000km/450.000.000km = 21037sek = 350minutes= 5,6hours
i dont realy know the distances in the EVE universe but if you look at hours it takes to fly a light year. then it brings most of the surounding systems within reach og a days flight.
this could give safe passage to distant systems if you are willing to wait a few days while you warp there.
some restictions could be impossed like no communication once to far from a system with a transmitter.

But no ship would have the cap required to travel that far.

Your cap recharges during/after each warp, so that's not a problem. You just make lots of small jumps.
I like this idea, but I think that it would be quite hard to implement, given the distributed way the game seems to be implemented :)

you could get a "Down time" when you start this jump and not get any control before you reach your destination

This isn't possible because getting from one system to another requires you to 'zone' into that system, which is what happens when you use a warp gate, so unless you zoned from one system to the other in mid warp, it wouldn't work.

Pretty sure most star systems in Eve are, on average, 7 lightyears apart. That means you're spending 34-45 hours of "downtime" when you're warping between systems! That's insane. It'd slow the game down to a complete crawl too.
