Now that warp speed matters, please make Wing Command of Fleet command boost warp speed much the same way that Leadership boosts targeting speed.

How about we kill off-grid boosting instead...

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

Well, technically the Wing Commander boosts don't have to come from off-grid. By which I mean that I agree with Arthur that OGB needs to die a painful and horrible death. As for whether there should be additional benefits for leadership skills once we remove off-grid boosting, that is another matter. Personally, I don't think it is necessary or proper for the Wing Commander skills to boost warp speed.

CCP should add more NPC 0.0 space to open it up and liven things up: the Stepping Stones project.

As long as there is no on grid booster ship that is at least as fast as the fastest ship in eve the OGB need to stay.

Screw your armor blobs and immobile damnations.

You shat on skirmish long enough.

No real comment on the warp speed as a specific boost, but I've always thought that the Wing Command and Fleet Command Skills are very Lack luster for incentive to train the ability to have more people in fleet and no new boosts like the base leadership skill has.

Leadership
Quote:
Allows command of a squadron. Increases maximum squadron size by 2 members per skill level, up to a maximum of 10 members.

Grants a 2% bonus to fleet members' targeting speed per skill level. Only the bonus of the fleet member with the highest level in this skill is used.

Note: The fleet bonus only works if you are the assigned fleet booster and fleet members are in space within the same solar system.


Wing Command
Quote:
Grants the Wing Commander the ability to pass on their bonuses to an additional Squadron per skill level, up to a maximum of 5 Squadrons.

This skill cannot be trained on Trial Accounts.


Fleet Command
Quote:
Grants the Fleet Commander the ability to pass on their bonuses to an additional Wing per skill level, up to a maximum of 5 Wings.

This skill cannot be trained on Trial Accounts.


I don't care if it was something with little impact like 2% cap reduction on Warp initiation, or heck for Fleet command 1% decrease in Jump Fatigue.

Why not a module under the Skirmish Warfare tree?
