Summer Expansion Skill Training Optimization

I have prepared my toon to take advantage of the Destroyer and Battlecruiser changes, so I will get V's across all racial Destroyers and Battlecruiser, essentially free SP and major savings in training time.

The Destroyer and Battlecruiser info was easy enough to find on the forums, etc., but I now see changes mentioned for prereq's in Heavy Assualt, Heavy Interdictors, Industrials, etc.

My question is - Is there a link from a player's perspective that summarizes and explains what to do to prepare for these changes to maximize your "free SP" and minimize training time, for each of these various ship types?

For instance, I read a prereq for HACs, HICs and Command Ships this summer will add:

Inf WF V
Arm WF V
Skrim WF V
Siege WF V
Energy Grid Upgrades V
Energy Management IV

Yikes! So an example guide might suggest training HACs, HICs and Command Ships NOW to avoid these prereqs.

Again, I have the Destroyer and Battlecruisers worked out - Thanks

P.S - yes I understand that you can fly then what you can fly now, you just can't train if u dont have prereq's, yada, yada.

Thanks, I read that but is is not a summary or guide on what to do to prepare/optimze your skill cue across all the affected ship types before the summer expansion.

I guess if you trained all of those to V now, you wouldn't have to worry about the new prereqs. of course, they changed the prereqs because you generally want all of those skills anyways to maximize the ships. as the training time for most of the ships will remain the same after the change, i'm not sure how much it will matter. destroyers and BC skills make sense, worrying about the others, not so much.

With the increase in shiptoasting, the Report timer needs to be shortened.

The command ships change isn't really a big deal, you already have all of the leadership skills at V anyway (at least if you want to be useful in a command ship), energy management V is something you trained long before even considering a command ship, and energy grid upgrades V is a pretty short skill that is fairly useful.
