Is it an illusion or a delusion.

I'm guessing it's a delusion.

Are they really useful if you can't find enough alts to fly them?

We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.

Possibly a bunch of cargo ships loaded with Omega-3 capsules.

CCP Greyscale: As to starbases, we agree it's pretty terrible, but we don't want to delay the entire release just for this one factor.

The truth is really boring: We have a lot of people. Lots of people who aren't very far from being able to fly a naglfar, so we're training sniper dreads to see if we can start alphaing slowcat archons.

God knows we have the people, but waterboarding fleet might get the job done.

Then a better question would have been why the question was posted in GD instead of CAOD where it might have been relevant.

N3/Pl are using carrier fleets. sentry drones for damage and they RR each other.
CFC are sad about this doctrine as they keep losing or if they find enough to win the node breaks.
The counter to this is dreads.
The choice is very high dps brawling dreads that will get popped by the massed sentries which is bad or extreme long range dreads. This second choice is omega fleet. most people are expecting the 1st mass use of omega fleet to involve huge numbers of cap losses although whose caps is an open question.

Money at its root is a form of rationing. When the richest 85 people have as much wealth as the poorest 3.5 billion (50% of humanity) it is clear where the source of poverty is. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jan/20/trickle-down-economics-broken-promise-richest-85

I couldn't answer that, but if you want your thread to actually be read, you don't post it in CAOD.

But how many who might read it in GD have any idea about some possibly exciting fleet doctrine in null?

I'm curious, how fast will the node crash when this fleet composition fails?
