In my opinion, this is an opportunity to fix a years-old inconsistency and perhaps a glaring oversight as well. Putting things the way they should have been from the very start isn't a bad thing.
I'd like to take this opportunity to fix all of the 5+ year old inconsistencies that Command Ship have. Command ships have more inconsistencies compared to t1 variants and even inter class balancing than any other ship a the moment.
Here is a killer example that is 7+ years old... So when comman ships were originally released, their base hp values were quite a bit higher than their tech 1 brothers at generally around 15%. Shortly after the implementation of Commands CCP released a patch which increased the raw hp value of BC to make them more viable in comparison to BS. However, in this patch, they forgot to boost the hp value of the Command Ships which resulted in t1 having more raw hp value...
Oh here is another one.... Way back when, when BCs were first introduced... The cyclone was an 8-4-4 layout, this was determined to be a **** slot layout for a shield tanking ship so ccp eventually fixed it by simply adding another mid slot giving it the 8-5-4 layout that we remember prior to the most recent BC changes... After this change Command ships were introduced which were all +1 total slot compared to their tech 1 counterparts. The problem with this is that the sleipnir and claymore were granted the +1 ontop of the additional +1 the cyclone already got. This meant that Matari Command Ships are at a +1 advantage compared to the other races command ships. This "inconsistency" still exists today and has been a root cause of the Sleipnirs questionable balance since it's implementation.
How these errors continue for 7+ years is beyond me. Fozzie and crew better do a bang up job on these ships as they have been the most ignored combat ships in eve's history. |

Given then potential of Command Ships (Sleipnir at least), don't you think they deserve their own models? Some that says "I'm da boss here.".
A modestly unique (kind of like the kronos) t2 version of a base hull would be pretty bad ass.

Black ferox simply looks massive, absolution in red/gold looks awesome, Eos misses her moving parts but still looks good and Sleip looks very aggressive and always reminds me about my first Cyclone etc. I like all the old hulls like they are(still would prefer moving parts on the Eos again).
Going to generally agree with you however I'd like see the EOS model swapped to the myrmidon. Gallente did get another Brutix hull so it only seems fair.I also would like to see minor/moderate variations in all t2 hulls. This would be something as simple as the moving parts on the eos ect.
Some variation in models to differentiate them from other ships with like hulls is imo, mandatory at this point.

Just what we need, 8 large gun t2 bcs with t2 resistances and double damage bonuses.... If you put anything other than large guns on these hulls people are going to cry so yeah....
Seriously guys... Suggestions, think before you post them.

Agreed on the Sleipnir change... The only reason it's Iconic anyway is because it's been so horrendously overpowered compared to the other field commands over the last 7 years that it's seen a ton of usage. If the other field commands had the same number of slots as the Sleipnir (ccp is bad) I highly doubt it would nearly as Iconic as it is today.
