Schhhhhht

What if CCP just put it there to test your faith?

Nothing was said about it from CCP guys/galls, just put there, like that. Santa gift or not Santa gift, fake or not fake?

Was a good move to show it however.

removed inappropriate ASCII art signature - CCP Eterne

Like many others, your imagination is running wild.

the SOE BS rumor spawned from the unmodeled GURISTAS BS found on singularity about a month or 2 ago.

Speaking of which, I need to update my sisi and check if it's still there and if it has a model yet.

That, and the description of said "Guristas" battleship explicitly mentioned the Sisters of EVE creating it. Straight

Thing with covops battleships is they can hit MJD and then activate cloak, pretty much guarantees they wont be scrammed in time. Should make it so cloak interrupts mjd.

CCP stealthpatched this, it does now. At least I believe I read this in a whine thread.

Thank you for the support.

Sorry for being so confrontational earlier. I suppose I just looked at the bonuses on the Stratios and then slapped them on a BS hull in my mind without really thinking about how to balance an SoE BS properly.

I feel this was well done, by both of you, in resolving so thoughtfully.

Now, if only black ops could see such love.

I'm a little surprised that CCP hasn't made a comment of some type in this thread. I'm not expecting a confirmation of there being or not being an SoE BS in the works or anything but there hasn't even been a "Hm, that's interesting." or a "We want to see how things work out with the Frigate and Cruiser before we make any decisions about a BS." from them about this.

CCP seem to have gone relatively dark recently; not just in F&I but GD. Not sure if it's something to do with the recent scandal storm or the fact that the expansion is so close.

First of the SoE BS is coming deal with it. It would need to sometime anyway, IF for no other reason then ALL the faction pirate races have a frigate, cruiser, and battleship, meanig SoE was missing one of the 3, guess which.

Now will it be able to warp cloaked? I highly doubt it. I do think it will have the same resist, drone and laser bonuses, but the others I'm not sure if they will stay or be changed.

There is a rumor it will have a med bay and it's suppose to have the least amount of mass of any BS in game.

What will it's role be? I think it's going to have something to do with the up coming building jumpgates to be honest, but as CCP has done little but show pictures who knows what this ship will be able to do. It might be like a balckops but T1, or it might be for exploring still but more in wormholes and such, or it might be something completely different.

Do we need it YES. You can't have ALL the other faction pirate races have BS and SoE not. Hell now CCP is going to have to make a Cald/Min faction too haha.
