Carriers were wonderful ships, at least when they were first introduced to the EvE sandbox.
In fact, Carriers were so wonderful, that they had to be nerfed.

So, let's give the Carrier Class back some of its love lost:



[PROPOSAL] Give our Carriers some EFFECTIVE FIGHTERS, once again!


After all, it does seem that we should have discovered Tech 3 FIGHTERS by now, doesn't it?

a new hybrid carrier would be cool if done right.
say 8-10 large turrent slots(no capital turrets), combined with a decent drone bay. maybe allow it to field up to 20 drones, but regular drones only no fighters or fighter bombers.
No siege or triage just a standard capital class tank.
One of these would have tank and DPS equal to 3-4 battleships but be very weak against other capitals.
Knida like a muti-pupose ships, for real diversity allow it to equip stripminers.



Just quoting to agree that a carrier with 20 drones on the field and 10 large turret slots would be weak in any way, shape, or form...

Confirming that this new carrier type would also be able to fit warp interdictor bubble + new 1000mn microwarp mini jump drive.

Does it also shine shoes and get the door for me?
