No, but every one of those races CAN fit what you suggest, just without a ship bonus for non-racial weapons. (minor edit for clarity)

No, but every one of those races CAN fit what you suggest, just without a ship bonus for non-racial weapons. (minor edit for clarity) True, true, but i was generalising on the point that the main defining attributes of what each race is responsible for governs the bonuses, turret slots, module slots, damage type bias and general feel to each race. Just couldnt think on how to write it out easier. Oh i understand and agree with the notion that every race should have a flavor(s) that makes it unique. However the complete lack of drone bays on several caldari t2s goes too far imo. Drones are more than just additional dps these days and I don't see why the Cerberus doesn't have the same drone bay as the Caracal. It wouldn't in any way infringe on the Gallente's drone-centric fleet to leave small drone bays on those caldari ships.
Cade Morrigan Caldari	Posted - 2009.01.08 01:46:00 - [3] Originally by: EFT Warrior The only reason Caldari have a drone bay on a ship is if it compliments that ship's niche role. What "niche role" of the Caracal and Moa makes drones benefit them more than they would benefit the Cerb and Eagle?
Cade Morrigan Caldari	Posted - 2009.01.08 16:13:00 - [4] I still haven't seen an argument successfully explaining how the Cerb and Eagle would be "out of role" if they retained the same drone bays that their t1 variants have. All 4 ships are intended as long range; if the drone bay doesn't over power the Caracal and Moa (lol) then how can it cause such problems with the Cerb and Eagle?
Cade Morrigan Caldari	Posted - 2009.01.09 05:22:00 - [5] Originally by: Ashani Tazuki This topic is like asking why why minmatar don't have lasser bonuses. You'd have a point if this thread were asking for a drone bonus on caldari ships.
