oh... well Black Squadron is one of the oldest player factions in the game. But no. We have fighter, bomber, gunboats, 2 cruiser/destroyers... and 3 battleships I think. The 4 admirals in Bs| are allowed to fly a battleship but only 2 of them do. The last one belongs to the best BS pilot on the server.
well everyone has ship restrictions, and it keeps the ratio how it's supposed to be. like BS:C/D:GB:F/B should be something like 1:3:6:15
If not, we'll have like 15 caps and barely any fighters.
I dont mind factions having their limitations, I just dont take part in them. I dont join factions, period.
Now, I dont stay 'indie' so I can go buy battleships and capwhore all the time. I dont even like battleships, my preferred ship type is gunboats... nice middle ground between fighters and BB's. I just like to develop my characters how I want, without a second party chiming in and saying "you cant do this" or "you arent high enough rank" or "you shouldnt have that ship".
Yeah. But some player factions are already limiting certain Cap ships to their player faction specifically and really limiting the cap ships around with story requirements and what not. I actually did that, it's the "order pilots and ships click here" in my sig. I don't mind indies, but I would like to know who has what. Because so far, everyone who posted there has a gunboat or something bigger. 2 Osiris's already out of 4 or so people.
