CCP you have my blessing for this patch. The changes to speed will do wonders for making fleet fights fun again.
just wait and see.

What I mean is, to put it kind of vaguely, the current fleet warfare of bringing all BSs and some token support + dictors/hictors will not work after the patch. It will require much more fleet diversification. It's pretty obvious why and what's going to happen in fleet battles if you think about it for 10 minutes.

Good for fleet fights, absolute **** for everything else.
honestly it's not really different from how it is now. battleships cannot hit frigs/cruisers, and since webs are 60% only, frigs webbed still have a chance to live, and cruisers webbed by battleships also still have a chance to live.

My guess is we'll see standard fleets with tacklers/dictors/hics, nanos, and battleships. Not much different than today.
Running gangs of pure battleships won't be as viable but lets face it. Pure battleship gangs are mostly a low sec thing. Gangs of just hacs might be viable still to gank ratters etc.
So the only difference is that the ratio of battleships/nanos change.
well, fact is nothing on sisi can hit assault frigs or interceptors except other assault frigs or inters. Even a vaga and ishtar can't hit my webbed hawk on sisi. hacs are useless against frigates now. interceptors will be for tackling targets with MWDs (dictors/hictors) and AFs will excel at killing hacs/recons. I dunno if hacs will even be useful at all since they have been relegated to a role in fleet fights that battleships do - killing bs and cruisers.
