Can we change the Field Command Ships to be based on tier 2 BC hulls? The tier 2 BC's gank harder than tier 1's, and Field Commands are the more gank-oriented CS after all. It's true the Nighthawk is one of the most awesome T2 ship designs, but a black Drake hull would be pretty badass too, no?

Unfortunately that wouldn't work out so great. Astarte vs. eos... the blaster ship using the drone bc hull and the drone ship using the gunboat bc hull?

The Eos isn't really a drone ship like the other Gallente drone ships after bandwidth.

And mores the shame. We Dronies need MORE drone ships, not less. If you're a dedicated drone user these days, you're basically looking at the Domi as the single best ship you can aim for. Which is depressing. Ishtar is a sexier second place, but thats about all you get in terms of high-end ships.
But I digress; T2 second tier BCs would be wicked-awesome. ------

Technically any ship with a drone bay will suit a drone specialist character. The Domi and Ishtar are by far the best due to the drone bonuses and ridiculous drone bay sizes, but drones are universal.

Only insofar as any ship with high-slots and turret points will suit a turret user. The drone bay size, bonuses and bandwidth are as important to a Drone specialist as the number of turret hardpoints and turret bonuses are to a Turret specialist.
Just as you don't see many successful turret-Ravens, you don't see many drone-Hyperions. ------

Er, so it makes sense that it (a creodron ship) would use the brutix hull while the astarte (the duvolle blaster boat) would use the myrmidon hull?

So after reading this little snippet under Absolution:
"Command ships are engineered specifically to wreak havoc on a battlefield of many. Sporting advanced command module interfaces, these vessels are more than capable of turning the tide in large engagements. Field command ships are geared more towards out-and-out combat than their fleet command counterparts, though both ships can hold their own in battle."
I would have to agree. Please replace the Absolution hull with the Harbinger. ________________________

Er, so it makes sense that it (a creodron ship) would use the brutix hull while the astarte (the duvolle blaster boat) would use the myrmidon hull?
Maybe Duvolle replaced the drone compartment with additional power generators or thruster powerplants or something. I admit in the case of the Gallente CS's that the one known for drone use would more logically be paired with the Myrmidon hull, but remember that drone bays don't actually occupy that much of the ship's internals. 150 m3 is smaller than my apartment bedroom which is 12 feet along each wall and has a ceiling nine (maybe ten) feet from the floor. 12*12*9 = 1296 cubic feet. 1296/3.3 = 392.7 cubic meters.
Now my math scores were awful in school but I believe I have shown that my modest room has more space than the Dominix dronebay. This demonstrates that CCP either needs to radically change drone size calculations, or that drones are HIGHLY compact while in the bay. It also shows that just because the Myrmidon is a "drone ship" that it also isn't unreasonable to convert it for blaster use. Capital guns on a carrier might be a different story but we're talking sub-cap here.

One cubic meter is 35.3 cubic feet. Your bedroom is 36.7 cubic metres.
Try and put "(12*12*9) cubic feet in cubic metres" into Google and watch what happens :)

Helloooo new sig
Also, yeah I'd like a T2 Harbinger too, but I'd be willing to wait for a completely new ship. Anyone know what sort of ship it might be? Or, failing that, any baseless speculation? - Originally by: Grarr Dexx YES PLEASE TOUCH MY ABSOLUTION

Yes the new T2 battlecruisers will be built around heat, using heat bonuses.
The ships will be known as:
Caldari- Failboat Minmatar- Nanofagboat Gallente- Nanowannabewithdronesboat Amarr- LOLprettywtfisitdoingboat

God dammit. This is why I go to school for Anthropology.
Still interesting that a whole flight of heavy drones could be carried on the back of one of those trucks that moves cars (not sure about the drone weight... I've never really checked it or cared.)
