Regular corporation LP stores, 1 run blueprint offer: 250,000 LPs plus 100 million ISK for 1 run blueprint copy (BPC)
Regular corporation LP stores, built ship offer: 300,000 LPs plus 1x built tech1 Battlecruiser plus two cruiser sized Nexus Chips
FW Loyalty Point stores, 1 run blueprint offer: for 125,000 LPs plus 10m ISK for 1 run BPC
FW Loyalty Point Stores, built ship offer: 125,000 LPs plus 1x built tech1 Battlecruiser plus two cruiser sized Nexus Chips


So players with high faction standing dont get the love by their faction in form of 2-run bpc from Cosmos agent??
Like the faction shows their appreciation in form of similiar prints for navy frig, navy cruiser and navy bs

Im used to tiers, it will take some time for me get used to the new clasification.

So is there a reason ? Blink


We went with the ships we considered to be the most "iconic" BCs for each race. There was lots of internal debate about Brutix vs Myrm but Brutix won out.

It makes sense as an individual decision, but I hope you take past choices into account when making future ones. Going for the iconic will lead to over population of certain models and total abandonment of others, since the choices seem to be made by popular vote.

Gallente should have navy faction Myrmidon instead of Brutix.

Ah... If only the Navy Cane would have a decent drone bay...


Anyway... like the prospect of flying at least 3 of the 4 new ships :) (dont like Gallente as a race)

P.S. Yes, I am a racist against Gallente. Im Caldari, what did you expect :D

With increased speed and velocity bonus, it just screams PODLA to me.

Myrmidon is much more iconic. It is a drone boat, and it means the true gallente ship.

This is going to the test servers very soon. We're figuring out some technical issues but expect to be able to play with these before you know it...

How about making all the navy ships FW only? It would give FW something special other than the current faction BS and datacores.

I haven't flown the harby in a while but IIRC the 1800 grid and the cpu at the time were not nearly enough to accomodate the requirements for a full rack of pulses plus whatever tank options you had to use. If its not too much trouble at least add more cpu to this if your not going to add grid, cpu was always a huge PITA on the Harbinger, more-so than the grid.

CCP, you know very well we want Pirate Faction BC. I want to see those spikes on my Sansha Battlecruiser.

Do it now.

And while you're at it, give some love to Sansha ships, create exclusive designs for Guristas ships and bring Cruiser and Frigates to Serpentis faction.

New BC's look fantastic. Really loving the Narbinger (Credit goes to Liam Inkuras). It's going to be tankier with better damage application... AND ANOTHER MID, YEAAAAAAH!

The Navy Drake will be hard to fit according to the conventional Drakes of today, gaining 2 launcher slots but only 80 PG and 50 CPU (before skills), but hell, the bonuses it gets are kinda ridiculous, so I guess that it is all in fairness.

Have yet to compare stats of the other two, but my boner makes it impossible to see the screen, and I am currently typing around it.

Also, the ships look dead sexy.

Any edits will be put below this line
Alright, see the Navy Drake loses a hefty amount of mass, in addition to gaining some speed. That's looking fantastic for it as well.
Also, it gains so much sheer tank. I'm quite surprised by this.

Design is easy, use the rear 1/3 of the revenant.
