That pink 'cane is awesome.

Also... Navy Drake? Why not. They will be expensive I bet... prob a little more than command ships is my guess. 300mil? easy.


Even with that expense it would be pretty broken. I would like to see the tier1 BCs get a navy version. A cyclone, proph, ferox, and brutix with some additional hp and an extra slot could shake things up rather than seeing waves of drakes and canes flying around.

Let's face it... they need tier one and tier two navy BC. It's going to happen. We all know it's just a matter of time. Maybe when CCP re-works faction warfare we will see every T1 ship get a navy counterpart.

This better not be another one of your photoshops. I got BC 5 and navy BCs would be the best thing since sliced bread.


This also sports the thick black line around the edge... Roll


:) they're called shadows, i explained earlier that these ships are in the stuff files but not released nor are they visable in game. These are the textures and models from the game client - the colours are wrong because they weren't rendered with the ingame engine and I had to approximate the real colours from the .red files

Please, let's decide on bonuses

Navy myrmidon - 125 MB bandwidth - pretty please, it's expensive like ishtar, give noobs a decent platform. It will not be overused with PvP.

Navy drake - fortify navy drake. Possibly extra mid, and extra launcher. It will be uber.

Navy rokh - give it 25% DMG inherent bonus. Not overused in PvP because of price, mostly prize PvE choice.

This post sums up why the 'best' work with DCM inc.

WARP DRIVE makes eve boring

really - add warping align time 300% on gun aggression and eve becomes great again

I want to see a Navy Drake. If only because the whining would be epic.

Navy Drake would be hard, since how well the drake operates in WH already. Cant really see navy drake getting made.

Navy brutix would be fun though.

The current Drake is already Navy. LOL

But a better one would be so awesome.

I would like a Drake with an 8th launcher same mids and medium drones. Just as much tank but some mroe gank. I think that would make it ok and not too OP for the price.

They probably couldn't make them *too* wicked, though, or they run into one of two problems: they might make command ships near-obsolete if they are priced too low (minus T2 resists/bonuses, of course), and they might be pointless if priced too high (nobody needs them for L3's, no one would risk them in PVP often, and probably only marginal in L4's/Iskursions).

Not sure if I'm hitting the nail on the head, or maybe even missing it completely...but I can see why this might be a tricky thing to implement, unless we get T2 tier two battlecruisers or something to up the ante.

Honestly, I can really only see them giving the navy versions better CPU/Powergrid and an extra slot or two. Maybe more drone bandwidth.
