the thought that unchaining capital ships will result in an increase of them ( increase in terms of ooRP increase ) is guesswork that is mostly unfounded.

in a capital ship i feel MUCH more vulnerable than when i am flying in a bomber. - funny thing, isn t it? ... its not a feeling, its a fact. - i am more flexible in a bomber, i am much harder to hit, i can fly through debris and asteroids, and i am credited as "good roleplayer" - not cause i am, but cause i fly a fighter class ( BHG ... which is laughable )

as a pirate, i would still prefer a bomber over a cruiser or battleship to pirate - why? - cause i have no chance to really fight back as a warship. - when i m in a bomber, i can simply ignore it when the BPA or QCO ( in case i m on clover ) - approaches in anything bigger than a bomber themselves.

they come in a gunship? - i laugh... they come in a battleship? - i can play cat and mouse with them, while i am ALLWAYS safe. - the only time i am afraid is when i am outnumbered by fighters, especially the hussars.

now, when i was flying a corsair cruiser ( which would be the next best choice for the gaians ) - i would fear bombers, VHFs, gunboats and battleships. - furthermore, i cannot move as well as in a bomber - and i cannot take down a transports shields any faster than in a bomber, cause i simply outdamage a cruiser in a bomber. - of course.. from a transports guns, i am safer, cause he won t be able to penetrate the shields..... mind, i can use a gunboat for that feature, too.

another example is BHG. - i am flying a BHG bomber right now, and i am fairly safe. i can rape even keeper ships when i m lucky - and i can usually easily outperform the slow titans in delta. - i can make a point against enemy cruisers even by taking their shields down - and with some luck, score a few hull hits.. and all the time, i am perfectly safe. ( or as safe as it gets ) ....

if i was flying a destroyer however... i would have trouble against a corsair cruiser - i wouldn t even be able to take down a well flown corsair gunboat. nomad raid groups ( NPC ) would damage me much more than they do when i fly a bomber. - single VHF are not such a terrible danger ( unless they have infernos ) - but two of them will put me into mortal danger for sure. - it does not feel like i am flying a more powerful ship - not at all... and the destroyer would need to be buffed up greatly get such a safe feeling that i have when i fly a BHG bomber.




or in short, i do not believe the argument that if the warships were treated the way they are supposed to would result in a massive increase of warships in a negative way. - it would however, change a lot on the server, indeed... but its hard to say if its for the better or the worse.
