Seems to me a high level skill that might be cool to add, and including a new class of ships to exploit it, would be Multi Ship control for capsuleers.

A capsuleer flying a command and control ship fitted with special equipment and properly skilled would be able to link to multiple ships .

This would enable a capsuleer to control small fleets.

It would also enable a capsuleer to lose small fleets because after all maintaining control might be as fragile as the temptation for others to take them over would be great

Control ships would mitigate this by being specifically designed to have multiple layers of safeguarded secure communication with slaved ships ( modules )
but would sacrifice weapons etc for this capacity


Would it lead to hostile take overs of opponents ships

Would there be a new specialist class of counter control ships designed just to take over opponent slave fleets

New possibilities are endless

talk amongst yourselves I gave you a topic.

F&I? Seems like a good idea to me though...

There's this thing called isboxer that supposedly allows you to control fleets.

On any other night, in before riot. Instead, merely in before lock.

does it means when someone hotdrop the mother ship, he/she automatically losses multiple hulls in no time?

I run up to three accounts, independently. No ISBoxer, no macros. Works as extended.
