Had this thought, you look at alot of battlefields. and you always see the same mix. with the odd super cap fleet.

But when you get to see a titan your like ooo pretty. For a 4000.00$ ship they better be pretty,
But when it comes to looking at gettin one you look at the price around 4000.00$ and only thing it really gets to do is Make bridges,

If the titan could be more used as a combat field ship would you see more of them on the field. ??

If they werent so expensive to get would you see more on the field?

If alliances didnt care so much about their kill to loss efficency would you see more on the field.

I feel sortta sorry for all those pilots who spent money on these sexy ships. only to find out they can only be used for bridgeing.

if CCP wanted to make a ship just for bridgeing im sure they woulda made a different ship for it and not of used a titan for it.

im sure others have had the same thoughts that i been haveing about them.

if they are cheaper to get you could expect to see alot more used on the field.

The one thing ive been trying to wrap my head around. Okay you buy a titan and every awoxer and spy in your alliance gets all happy for a possible titan kill.

sure it could be comon sence not to bring it on a fleet, when your fc says not to. but if you look at it. its prolly safer with your fleet then it is when its by itself after jumping a fleet thro a bridge. then logging off.

Only time ive seen a **** ton of titans was on Sinularity watchin a super get insta popped by 15 titan doomsdays was awesome :)

anyone thoughts on titans. anyone agree their prices should be cheaper.

I have yet to see a gank Navitas.

But when I do, I'll probably be losing to it. Cry

I rarely get to see a battle badger. Honestly, I wand a battle battle fleet with a skiff as a point just to mess with people. Obviously the cargo hold are required to be filled with exotic dancers.

Everytime you read this you are required to send 100 million isk directly to me.

Few days ago, when I flew one in a small gang of T1/T2 Frigates round nullsec.

Lived, on many killmails, good times.

It is a rather niche ship tho, no doubt. Dies FAR too easily, even in blobs, as folks seem to enjoy shooting at these things first every time.

I have been tackled by a Navitas before. It's unpleasant and embarrassing.

Being logged off is not as safe as being somewhere that you can be hotdropped?

Let me know when you get a supercapital.

I don't think Ive seen anyone fly a Battle Itty I.

Come to think of it....I don't think ive EVER seen anyone an Itty 1.



Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

There was a player by the name of Zedryk (I might be misspelling) Cayne. He used to fly a ship he called the "Iteron of Doom" and write of his exploits in the Crime & Punishment forums - always a good read.

How often do you have these thoughts?

Have you seen a doctor about it?

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

He has a blog, and has recently resurrected the "itty of doom".
