Why not Capital Rigs?
by Cyberin on Aug.18, 2009, under General
The official patch notes for Apocrypha 1.5 have been released, and after reading the full details of the changes in rigs I realized that I think they left a size out.
Cruisers are 5 times bigger than frigates, and 5 times smaller than Battleships. What about Capital Ships? They are quite a bit bigger than battleships…yet didn’t get their own size rigs. In my opinion if we are going to get cheaper rigs for our cheaper ships…why don’t we make it a little more realistic and have larger rigs for the capital ships.
I’ve never actually flown a capital ship, so I can truthfully say I don’t have any opinions on the price increases this would cause to operating a capital ship. But I do think it would make sense. Possibly even one more size for Motherships and Titans which of course are even larger than normal capital ships.
Don’t get me wrong though, I’m all for this new rig change and am grateful for it either way, I just think it’s strange to base rig sizes off the ship sizes…but leave out Capital and Super-Capital sizes.

I said in my earlier post that I would be posting 2 more posts today, and I shall try and get that done. I’ve been busy trying to get caught up on over 100 google reader blog posts so I spent much of my writing time…reading, so I may get the second one out or I may not. If not, it’ll be around tomorrow.
