Except your right,...Obligatory "U Mad?".<br /><br />Except your right, its insane what a supercap blob can do. There is simply no counter. It's basically turned into nullsec for the rich and famous. After the latest changes, plus the threat of being removed from my home on a whim of another rich alliance, I am glad I got out when I did.<br /><br />One word describes what I think of the whole thing "ridiculous".Anxiirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04188495808835698019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10989652.post-38287254590046342382011-06-02T11:38:27.090-04:002011-06-02T11:38:27.090-04:00Rixx is right how many times have we seen this.

I'm counting 3 so far.<br />IRC, CVA now NC<br /><br />Start of well, fight like lions, super/cap blob arrives and whelps beyond our ability to counter. Switch to bombers, retreat slowly while calling all to arms to die. Post less and less CTAs as the system falls. Give up and wait for them to leave.<br /><br />The NC is showing parallels to CVA in that when poked their personally owned supercap fleet melted into the night along with the conviction we can win with only the enemies resolve the major stumbling block to their success. Both CVA and the NC sold many more supers than they kept and as the rest are all personal assets after a few pastings you are much less likely to risk 20 bil of your own cash in fleets.Darthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12954740662880160757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10989652.post-25855052544493468442011-06-02T08:29:17.047-04:002011-06-02T08:29:17.047-04:00Good to hear things from your perspective m8.
Fun...Good to hear things from your perspective m8.<br /><br />Fundamentally this is the exact reason why I decided to bail on Null Sec Alliance bs and simply have fun again in Eve. How many times does one person need to watch this happen around them, watch friends give up and stop logging in, watch everything you've built destroyed and fall into enemy hands? The number is different for everyone, for me it was 6.<br /><br />Best of luck to you and all my friends in m3.Rixx Javixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05484974346562922694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10989652.post-51796783373845839012011-06-01T18:07:21.767-04:002011-06-01T18:07:21.767-04:00@Forlorn

It has a weapon system (fighters) that works great against the only sub-caps that would be a threat (battleships), and a weapon system that works great against other capital ships (Fighter-Bombers). Adding another Supercarrier to the mix makes the pair of them exponentially better able to defend themselves. And all that for a month and a half of extra skill time over a normal carrier. Damage wise they are much more efficient with their damage than Titans can be.Jeremiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06926703338915859743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10989652.post-30683669737595516812011-06-01T16:31:10.605-04:002011-06-01T16:31:10.605-04:00The shiptype of supercarriers is not broken.

That's they so many powerblocs have the huge supercarrier fleets. If the statistics of QEN continued at the current speed atm there should be over 2000 supercarriers in the game. CCP started with the few 0.0 nerfs recently to get that fixed, removal of sanctums in every shit place, longer respawn time, faster onboard scanner to find them (hunters love that), additional isk sink for alliance with jb changes and i guess there are a few more incoming.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18220419364477089915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10989652.post-21173806312760384122011-06-01T16:16:59.032-04:002011-06-01T16:16:59.032-04:00A supercarrier can launch 20 Orge II or 20 Warrior...A supercarrier can launch 20 Orge II or 20 Warrior IIs, etc. A supercarrier has hundreds of thousand effective hitpoints, a powerful ECM burst. Titans doomsdays work on battleships, cruisers, etc in some (many?) cases. <br /><br />Simply put, your average sub-cap fleet (hell, cap fleet) when hotdropped by 20-40+ supercarriers and titans dies while taking none of the enemy ships with them. <br /><br />Add to that the enemy subcap fleets and titan jump portals and you have a recipe for disaster.Kirith Kodachihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12322297953184168725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10989652.post-16837412106898744072011-06-01T16:09:57.724-04:002011-06-01T16:09:57.724-04:00Kirith - my understanding is that SC damage to sub...Kirith - my understanding is that SC damage to subcaps is minimal at best (of course you have aggregated damage from dozens of supers but that's aggregate damage). Did they bring such balanced super+subcap fleets that your leadership really couldn't get enough pilots to make it a fight, or was there a higher-level lack of desire to lose internet spaceship pixels?<br /><br />This isn't pointed at you - but leadership who chose not to fight even at the subcap level, or failed to do so successfully. It's not like they had enough Titans to DD your entire subcap fleet in one volley, or did they?S.W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14010425864760744776noreply@blogger.com
