CONCORD is Boring and Valkyrie new

Ever think of gradually replacing CONCORD response with Valkyrie pilots?

Valkyrie real time mission intelligence board lets much faster and flexible shooters track down slow moving EVE scoff laws. Secret micro wormhole tech dispatch direct to location...sort of like DUST goes anywhere no matter where based in EVE. Success for rewards and rank points. Rank points driving better ship availability (though maybe not purchase). Base rank points being a product of the capsuler ships blown up and multiplied by system security in high sec and square of security below 0.5. Of course the special tech of Valkyrie ships limits them to a single grid while killing the warp drives of target ships...so Valkyrie only touches EVE at selected points at certain times.

Time in Valkyrie vs Valkyrie fights would just be for skill points and wins for the ladder bragging rights for each class of Valkyrie ship.

Give "CONCORD-Valkyrie" response a more RL variation especially for low sec. Lo sec is still Empire space. So occasionally someone should show vs long standing interference with commerce etc. Just increasingly highly unlikley as projected rank points on mission board drop.

For real complications you could later inject Incursion faction of Valkyrie response to low sec and incursion areas - Valkyrie vs Valkyrie during enforcement. Have to be some way or reason to limit or splinter non-Empire Vlakyrie though.

You do know that Valk pilots aren't actually going to be in eve proper, right?
They'd give a very long response time given they won't be in the game.

What happens when there aren't enough Valkyrie pilots to handle all criminals in high sec ?

What happens if the Valkyrie pilot decides to shoot someone other than the criminal ?
