Having played as long as the OP, im not as much worried about new ships but with the balancing of the existing once (or more like CCPs ignorance to balancing).
That being said id love to see an offer to turn a 100m+ SP Char into a 500k SP Jove Char with access to Jove ships. I would happily accept extremly long skilltimes (eg ~4 months for jove cruiser 5) for these ships.

Making vets even more unmatchable and powerful at the expense of the new ones...
Sure there must be some interest for some to tank 300 battleships in some frigate and feel like gods but what about trying to kill Titans or Super carriers with T2 frigs fleets? - this is a huge goal for you guys.
Jove ships arent "that" hard to kill, having taken part in one of the jove events several years ago a 50 vs 1 Jove BS was more than enough (not counting those trying to solo it). And having to reskill all the support skills etc. would make a decent timesink for the vets, giving them a really nice longterm goal. Considering the number of vets and the number of SCs/titans, some extra jove ships wont do sh** to the balance as it is now.
Vets arent unmatchable, were did you get that idea? A specialised char can match any vet after quite a short time, only real advantage of the vets is flexibility.

Remember the saying from 2004-2005? "specialisation is the key"
While i remember that saying it only holds true for new chars imho.
If you recall all those nerfs and buffs to the various races/ship classes through the patches since 2003, im pretty sure you will agree, anyone staying specialised would have been royaly f**** at one point or another. (not to mention running out of skills within that specialisation quite soon)
As for the balancing issues, those have been around right from the start and i really dont think those 6 Jove ships (+1 shuttle) would make the issues any worse. CCP has the sad tendency to ignore balancing as long as they can get away with it or until they see the need in their data (whereever they pull those from, im guessing crystal balls or tarot cards).

Originally by: Jacob Stov Just tell me why did you train up all those skills, when you don't use the bloody ships ?
Cant talk for digitalwanderer but i feel that i was actually forced to train up all the ships and weapons over the years and i DO use all those ships from time to time (No Caps trained here though).
Never planned to fly anything but gallente when i started but to stay at least a bit competativ i had to go with the flow from dual-mwd torp ravens or rail apocs (yeah right rails on an apoc!) to the still used tempests or recons and logistics. As i already said this was never planned but was rather forced on me by the game changes. (some of the changes were rather extrem so dont judge if you werent there)
