**** happen, just manage it. The whole point is to be create a balance an more options.



So, much the same as we already have then? Whoever has the most supers wins every engagement.

Why do we need more of that?

What for? State purpose, please; something that is not "we need more capitals" or "capitals are cool" preferably.

Make it idiot-proof and someone will make a better idiot.

Yes we need deaths stars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


or no

I am in favor of expanding the capital class if at all possible, but expanding it wider not vertically.

Here's a better suggestion:

Delete all supercaps.

More capitals are definitely on the way... see war barge for example... that's what I am talking about, specialised stuff that add more fun.

How about this... come up with a new role for a capital, then we'll talk. More capitals is like saying more sub-caps. Without actually having a niche that needs to be filled it's an empty suggestion. Try actually suggesting a niche that needs filling and I'm sure CCP will give your suggestion more weight.

Tech 3 Battleships and Tech 2 Dreads and Carriers would be nice, but with so much isk in the players hands well when would they get used except to gank people?

As you see there are new frig and cruiser specialised for WHs... why not have capitals that are specialised in WHs, not only, capitals that can generate WHs? why not have a capital that is a siphon cleaner? or perhaps a capital that specialises in gate camping. How about a class of capitals that can jump through star gates? how about T3 capitals? How about battleships that can combine and merge into a single capital? how about capitals that can combine into a mega capital? how about capital mining but that can take chunks of planets or moons? how about capitals that can provide temporary expansion to POSes or Outposts? How about a capital that is a mobile Casino for space turism and entertainment with walk in spaceship?

Any comments?

While this seems like a good idea on the surface... No. There should be no item purchasable that gives one player such a massive advantage over another. (Ignoring Plex to isk)

Yes. You have failed to point out any specific role that a new capital ship could fill that is not already filled by some other ship.
