Less of an issue than say having pirate ships in highsec.

These should be like carrying slaves through Minmatar space. You can do it, but you're going to get shot at!

That would then raise the question of just being minmitar in Amarr space outside of a pair o shackles.

That statement could describe the Gallente Empire... Lol

However, C Spurty, it seems to me the reason Capitals aren't allowed in HiSec is because they WON'T get shot at. Concord frowns upon shooting someone for the heck of it. So you'll have to pay to War Dec the Corp that the Capital is part of, or if they want total protection, I think the pilot could just join an NPC corp and be immune to the War Decs. Suicide Ganking a Captial ship doesn't seem to be possible to me right now... at least not in a way I can currently think of.

Thus, no Capitals in HiSec. If I'm wrong on that read of things, someone please enlighten me...

I have seen more and more talk of capitals in highsec over the last year. IMHO this would be a good step . You could limit carriers to only attack npc rats unless you are at war, in which case its free-for-all between those involved in said war. Also dreads could be limited to attacking structures, again, being wartime dependent.

Get rid of mission gates and spawn anoms of varying levels. Maybe missions need to be expanded to include something like 'destroy this NPC pos' (for dreads) or have carrier-centric missions.

This would make the economy explode. dreads/carriers would skyrocket in price, requiring more PLEX to be bought. CCP makes more money, players get to fly the ships they want more than a once a week cyno cta.
