I think I've suggested this before, but don't know if I ever actually made a thread for it... Since you're going to be working on fixing ships and what not, could you please make the command ships use one of each model for the battle cruisers? So:
Ferox > Vulture
Drake > Nighthawk
etc...
And please change Ishukone's v3 skins -_- Please? :(

I think this would be a simple, quick, and refreshing change. Would love to see it happen.

I think the eos should have the myrm hull if this were the case.

Agreed. Especially since its typically the least sexy of the BC line up that gets reused as a Tech II model. A Tech II Harbinger, Myr, Drake or Hurricane would be sexy as fark all.

I would rub myself gratuitously and inappropriately against a Harbinger with a Khanid paint job.

I'd rather CCP didn't make my nighthawk ugly, thanks.

It would be the Carthum paint job as the harbinger is more combat oriented than the Prophecy is, and would thus make a better Absolution than the Prophecy does.

IT isn't as simple as just moving hulls, the ships are entirely different and would have to be rebalanced as such. I made a big long ass thread about it a few months ago. Response was kinda meh to no.

It would be interesting but only because I want to see a Core Complexion Hurricane

Well, the Carthum paintjob is just as dark as the Khanid paintjob in V3 anyhow so I guess that works. >.>

I don't think it would take quite as much rebalancing as it might seem though and Command ships need a spiff up anyway in the face of T3's.

Khanid are black/satin silver/silver, Carthum are maroon duotone and gold (sooo f'ing sexy!).

It wouldn't take all that much work... and quoted because command ships DEF need some love.

But yeah, who WOULDN'T want a t2 drake/harbi/myrm/cane? It would be f'ing awesome! Each race has 2x BC's and 2x Command ships, but the commands ships are all the same tier 1 hull :/

The Nighthawk is basically a missile boat brawler much like the drake was when it first came out. The Ferox has never been seen as that so why keep the nighthawk in a ferox hull. Considering the design of the Drake it would be the perfect hull for a T2 missile brawler. Just make some changes to the over all look of the ship to make it look more like a T2.
