And then never fly them, because flying caps is ''above'' any ''good'' official faction, am I right?

Well that's because indies ruined the reputation of battleships, if it would be restricted I am sure factions would use them.

I'd leave destroyers/cruisers, because in current form they aren't much of a threat for organized bomber wing YET they give the tasty prelude to owning the battleship by flying a real capital ship. Gunboats feels more like oversized mid-size transports that have more powercore and shield.

Hard to believe He said that.
Some time ago i grinded for more than 2 months for an armorless LABC for then on my first enjoy-trip around the lane, marvelling at the magnificent shape of my Achievement, to get swarmed by exactly 5 [HF] bombers 3 fighters and 1 BS.
Later in conn i noticed that in fact it only takes 2 bombers who simply dont try to be brave but simply Take Turns god mmit.
Thing is that back in 8.6 the large majority of vets were saying Hey screw them the pool has plenty of fish...which in time proved to be plane wrong, fish were gone.
Dont misunderstand me, when i logged rogue vhf i got asap on me 1LPI liberator,2 indie guardian navy which by the way had Missiles and if like that wasn't enough there was also a double razor LSC (flied by a xtf dude Flava or Vraja whatever) spamming them from 2feet away and of course a dread incoming from 6k away...
)so i thought: holy sheeet what these dudes have in their heads? isn't obvious that the liberator alone would have been enough?
)) ChristI'm way over the point of complaining is a long time since i barely log for some conn pew
....(not be cause mad but simply i lost interest in the game No Story gameplay) just saying coz i've seen the upper referrements to Officials only stuff...i mean be true to you, unless you intend to play this among yourselves 20 guys or so dont do that.Balance see it this way: caps bs or cruiser regardless Already are sitting ducks for 3,4 bombers so...i'd say dont screw it up further.
Ideea for ''sort of selection'' in giving caps to players?: well i see there is a player tracking of time spended on game and so since admins too log and play the game whi not monitorizing some of those who spend time in snub fight and the amount of ''eager-triggerness'' they have...
Not a native english speaker so maybe i amalgamated stuff.

Don't forget to mention what followed: they dropped that change and made caps official factions only.
Instant karma in shape of overnight loss of 90% player base was... amazing. I am still wondering what faces Sage&Co had when they woke up next day and saw server deserted.

Limit battlecruisers, battleships and carriers. This way, indies can still fly destroyers/cruisers - but also can be easily killed by an organized bombing party.
You want bigger guns? Prove us you deserve them then.
Problem solved.

Indies move on to next game, so you've traded "lolwut indie battleships" for "damm, nothing big to shoot for our bomber brigades".
"Try harder next time."

Indies should present certain level of roleplay before obtaining something around carrier and battleship - a lot of them do not deserve them. If you only care about "nothing big to shoot" (yay, getting blues...), I won't discuss it any further with you.
P.S. I never said remove caps completely from indies. Destroyers/Cruisers would still be available for them. If you have trouble with reading, it is not my fault.
