I'd considered training into a Phoenix once, for about twenty three seconds. Maybe I'll reconsider in the future, provided I've returned to active flight.


No. In fact it is what is holding me back most, my tone-through-text and speaking perhaps too plainly or not plainly enough.

Ironic is it that I also, nearly three months ago I nearly invested into buying many Phoenix hulls? Missed opportunity now. Revelations as well if the Capsuleer petition succeeds.

Time will tell.

Once again showing how little I know.

Your willingness to admit it, however, is very much appreciated.

I was being sarcastic. In an attempt to make citadel missiles not be speed tanked by a capital ship they have ensured they can now sig tank them in Triage or Siege.

There is some outcry at the navy to come up with a solution but so far, they seem to be ignoring it.

How do you know an engineer has made changes to something?... When the only part of it that doesn't develop issues is the one you told them to improve. P Guess we'll see what happens.

The State, really any of the empires, did not get to where they are by making poor decisions. While they have by a increment, made the Phoenix better for applying damage to enemy capital ships they have improved the tank and utility tenfold. Couple that with the new software the Navy announced (conveniently at the same time) which will give all ships improved damage application to starbase structures and you have what seems to be a reinforcement and improvement in its already intended role: laying waste to structures.

While many capsuleers, including myself, may not see this as the best direction obviously the Navy does.

They now have a collection of the most powerfully defended capital ships which excel at demolishing infrastructure. As to why that is I will leave to Caldari but I suspect that there are more than a few Diana Kim minded people developing the Navy's fleets.

To me, they seem to be preparing to take territory under fire.

God, no. One of them is enough.

As for a major offensive from the Caldari, I'm not sure that's in their best intrest at the moment.

A little trust goes a long way. The less you use, the further you'll go.
