Tornado-
Honestly needs a 2-5% increase in cpu and pg. can barely fit 1400's with really good fitting skills (t2 guns)
Needs one more low, with the low pg/cpu it would only be an upgrade utility slot. The 5/5 layout would be a great thing to compliment the minmitars armor or shield tank tempest. kind of like a little brother.

Naga-
Really well done, no complaints

Talos-
Needs one less mid one more low, pretty much buffers like the naga but can place alot more mag stabs. decrease the mid add a low. With the cpu/grid it would be a low priority upgrade slot.

Oracle-
Needs engine trails from top engines (would make this ship alot more sexy :)
Pretty well balanced

Those two are importants, the Tornado is fine as it is.

Fitting 1400mms on a BC is good enough already, and from what I could see, you can fit a decent Tornado with 2 RCU II (The guns, the MWD and a LSE).

Tornado is not fine, as of right now, no reason to use tornado over naga/talos/oracle (in that order).

Tornado needs another low and a little more pg/cpu to compete with the other tier 3's

Nah 1 less low one more mid (or just 1 mid 30 cpu and 100 grid) for the Talos who armour tanks a glass cannon? seriously.

You do realize all of eve is based on lore, and by lore Gallente don't shield tank. And you can effectively armor passive tank the Talos. The fact it can overly compete with Naga as a shield tanker is the problem.

who said anything about shield sure you dont active shield tank it but every nub over 3 weeks old can fit a tank of whatever type they want on a battlecruiser Lore means SFA . Im calling bullshit on your claim that it can compete as a shield tanker with the Naga 11K ehp vs 30 your full of ****.

11k? I get about 20-21k ehp from either one... and talos > naga

Ok, did I slip into an alternate universe? (one where I have to work and not play internet spaceships Sad)

Anyway, have you not seen all the whines about Tornado totally outclassing the others? Did the addition of a drone bay to Talos and Naga losing the toprs and gaining a damage bonus change things so dramatically?

Frankly I still don't think we needed another BC tier anyway. Losing the tier concept in general for frigs, cruisers and BCs would have given us more ships to play with.
