Being able to afford, doesn't means they need it, and Im talking about IMG now.
Who are IMG's main enemy- OCs and Sairs. Both of which rely on snubs or minor capital ships like gunboats, according to lore and RP. Doesn't realy make sence for IMG, to have a battlecruiser to counter thouse ships in RP. BC is too much for IMG. Destroyer is ok to counter both gunboats and ocassional cruisers. They would be fine with something like Tresher.
Even Carrier makes sence for IMG, as mobile snub support base.
In fight against other houses... If GMG would use caps in 80 years war, they would probably loose it.
Not to mention that the main area in which IMG came into conflict, was Tau-23. A system where fights were often initiated around Java which also have Weapon Platforms to aid them.
I love it. All the rage... all the rage... about something that almost never actually has impact in the game. Proper hating needs a little more Qq about bad behaviour in pvp. Add a pinch of gank and cap abuse to the already mentioned java qq... and we might actually get where this thread is moving anyway.
Or people could, you know, want to actually voice their opinion on something that they see a problem with, but hey, I guess you're just insecure about the thing they're bringing up, so you have to deflect the question by claiming you're the target of grudges. Nice of you to act like a rational person that's open to actually debating something.

He did act like a rational person and explained what's with the BC (see posts above). When people keep coming with arguments and the idea that they know the lore better than the ones that wrote it, then rational doesn't fit anymore.
That silly IMG BC is lame, yet it does its job in defending their assets. They built it because (IN RP) they had the means and the experience. They built it because they can maintain it and because it was cheaper than creating a new type of vessel. It doesn't flood the server, it's bad (stats wise) so there's no problem with it.
If you think the BC doesn't fit in the general story, then do this:
1. Apply for IMG;
2. Raise in ranks;
3. Become leadership of IMG;
4. RP and convince the guild that the BC is not worth the money;
5. Have it removed from the production facilities in the future updates;
6. (OPTIONAL) Have it replaced with something YOU think fits the IMG better.

No issues?
Okay, Jack. Lets just ignore the several replies in this thread, made by people that believe it's wrong. It might not be 100% on-topic but it's a logical discussion rather than a flame war, so there's nothing with it being discussed here especially when CR and IMG work(ed) closely together. I'm still not quite sure why Colonials tolerate you so well when it's now blatantly obvious you have ties with GRN but hey, no issues, remember?
