Dear CCP,

Please, what is your vision for Capitals once they aren't needed for Sov anymore? Except for Jump Freighters for cargo and Rorquals for mining bonuses, what use will their be for Carriers and Supers and Titans? Well Titan's bridge, so they have a use.

I know you must have some Brilliant Plan for them, but if there has been a blog I have missed it.

Thanks,
a New Eden Pilot.

Read "vision for ... Rorqual" and had an uncontrollable fit of laughter.

I don't expect we'll hear anything on capitals until after June.

Please tell me how you plan to take sov when every node grid is defended by a triage archon or 2, plus a support gang.

Suddenly, you need capitals of your own.

drop N supers on one node. those 1 or 2 triage archons are not going to live long. Archons from other grids are not going to come to help - they are in triage too.

Repeat process N times and suddenly no 'triaged archons' will sit of node grids....

Suddenly cyno jammers and deployable cyno jammers are a thing.

And suddenly you have a full-fledged invasion that takes weeks to prepare and hundreds of pilots to execute. And all of it hinges on capitals.

But could you imagine the logistics of getting the stront to all the carriers? Haulers buzzing around everywhere to keep the fuel going.

Ok. Adding one more step - making them NEED to triage beforehand.

A new "transportation capital ship"

It would be nice if CCP addresses the problem of accétion for the "null-sec" from the "lowsec" because in fact because of the reduction increased from "jump" from "carriers / whale", he n 'there are more ships in carrier capital eve, the ideal would be a "Jump freighter" with the hold of bowhead.

Indeed the Bowhead without jump module is not enough to logistics "ship" PERSONAL.

How carried more than 7 million metre3 with a final destination of a jump 9 "carrier"?

By clamping the worn jump, you Clamp "the accétion" the zero-sec

@OP

Capitals will be allowed in High-Sec to fight off the Drifter threat. The citizens of New Eden will need every help they can find.
