I was just wondering if anyone have some ideas for new T2 ships of the classes that only have 1 for each race, EAF, Logistic, dictor and HIC. (not gonna bother with Blops and marauder for now)
I would just like to see some new ships in these classes so there's a bigger reason to train these skills, and while for example it's really useful to train logistics as it is I believe logi pilots would enjoy some more options when getting a ship.

One idea I mentioned in some old thread about EAFs was frigate versions of the force recon cruisers, ie, EAFs with cloaks. This idea got negative feedback and I can agree that a cloaky kitsune is not a very good idea. but I'm just throwing it out here as an example.

Another example could be a new HIC specialized to use the focused warp disruption to point supers and other ships but worse at bubbles among other drawbacks. Again, just an idea, don't have much experience with HICs so I can't say how this would work in game.

So if anyone else has an idea on new ships for these classes, or just have feedback, post it here.

The thing is that those ship classes really don't need new ships, they're already fine as-is. Adding in ships just for the sake of adding ships is typically a pretty bad idea. Look for a need first.

Seconded the guy with a random keyboard punched name. There are enough ships that need balance and already exist to worry about adding in more t2 stuff. EAF being a superb example, actually.
