cap ship limiting

[Lohingren]

okay i am prepared for the worse here and have opened myself up to as much flaming as you like.

but i was thinking about maybe adding a rule as to how many Cap ships can be used in a raid/battle.

now this will be a tough one to enforce and will be a rather drastic change as to how things are done but i do think it is a issue that needs to be brought up. ok here is what i think, i think that there should maybe be a rule implemented as to how many cap ships can be used in a fight or battle. now i know things will need to be sorted out as to what the limits may be and i know this may have already been brought to the attention of the server before.

i think doing this would

A. Stop a lot of Cap ship whore accusations
B. make fights a lot more enjoyable
C. make Role playing a lot more in sync with battle's
D. just plain old make things a lot better when it comes to battles

i would suggest something around the lines of 3 gunboats 2 cruiser's and 1 battleship per battle. yes a very small amount but i do think that this is very reasonable RP ratio's for a battle. it will force a lot more fighter's into fighting and it will make unfair battle's a thing of the past in my opinion. now yes as i said earlier it will be a very hard rule to enforce.

and i do understand that people do not like fighters (which i have no idea why the things are awsome) but it is a thing i feel really needs to be brought to attention.

now take this scenario for example

Team A = 5 gunboats 3 cruisers and a battle ship
Team B = 1 gunboat 2 destroyers and 0 battleships but with numerous fighter's

i think Team B is a lot more in role than Team A for the simple reason that it is Just way over powered and very cheap way to win a battle.

now all you gunboat pilots and cruiser/battleship pilots out there are probably thinking of the best way to flame me at this point in time for bringing about such blasphemy but i do believe that you can have your turn at flying your beloved gunboat when you want to do as such. hell it will also become more realistic when you have lets say 10 corsair's in Crete 4 of which are gunboats, 3 of which are cruisers and 2 of which are battleships. this would force the corsairs to leave some men behind to help DEFEND Crete in case of another group going in behind the corsair invasion party.

it would make battles more RP like also and more attuned to the npc's way of fighting yes i know we aint computer characters we are player's but the npc's are the best RP'ers around here because of the way they do battle.

this is all i really have to say for now *opens up for wide spread of flame* ok hit me boy's n gal's

Lohingren Out

PLEASE NOTE: just a suggestion people please do not take this to the extent that it gets out of hand i would like this to be a nice civil descussion not a OMG YOU ARE A IDIOT HOW DARE YOU COMPRAMISE MY BEUTIFUL BS'S FUTURE!?!?!?!?
