Under the new rules, despite me taking less damage than the pirate and reaching the nearest base easily, I would be pvp dead and they wouldn't. So why would I even bother to use a ship like that, on a dangerous route? I may as well use 5ks on totally safe routes if any encounter results in pvp death anyway.
You people clearly don't understand the basics of transport-piracy mechanics if you don't see the problem here.[/color]
With escorts that bomber would be dead then. But then again, lone CAP 8 Liner in the Omicrons, totally normal to win vs Squid bomber. Totally normal to be in that area without escorts as well.
