Indies will be stuck with puny gunboats and down, maybe not even including gunboats.
Feel free to criticise this.
This- but not exactly.What about faction leaders controls the Battleship/Cruiser License? So proved indies would be able to use them with little RP and common sense.It requires the independent player to join at least in the forums and try to RP a bit.No one of the officials is obliged to teach the lolwuts- why you want people to loose their time with them? Restricting them to do something in positive way will do it.
On the topic:
Your idea is good on paper but not really easy to implement and open to abuse. What about ship sales? If one BS costs 200 mill I will buy 4 of them for 400 mill each and people will do the dirty job for me because I can pay them.
