Also i will not be playing in Saggitarius until something is done to stop sparrow spammers, maybe limit the max number of missile frigs to 3? thanks ISS-Enterprise (Ill be on the Procyon server)

You forget ICC has small ship supremacy by a pretty large margin. They hold against smaller and larger ships far better than the gunboat or battle cruiser could hope. But its a faction speciality I suppose.

Um how so? It's not just ICC, UGTO has nearly the same type of small ships ICC has, only with better armor and better close range weapons.

When UGTO toss all the stations and dreads they have, which by far the UGTO has weaker ships than Kluth and ICC, and lose to superior skilled opponents who can use weapons effectively, they scream hax.
I dont really see anything but a Uggie throwing a temper tantrum that his big ship got destroyed by a well thought out coordinated fleet.

Can you please stop stereotyping ugto? Ive seen an all dread/station icc fleet, i point this out and they go:
"lol roles reversed"
"hey ugto get missle cruisers!"
when ugto use a dread/station fleet they go:
"OMGZ!!!!!LOOK AT UGTO BE NOOBS!!!!!"
to be fair ill include an ICC stereotype, when they spam missles we go:
"Is missle spamming an invoulontary action? Or Missle spam much?"
what we get in respose"
"Its a viable tactic"

Sparrows are fine, it takes plenty of missile frigs/harrier frigs to even SCRATCH big ships if the fleet even bothers being coordinated. And a note on the missile spam thing, ICC only complain when ugto STATION spam, having 8 SS repping eachother nver dieing really is a pain in the neck, but to be honest ICC are longrange, and missiles are longrange. Ugto use their much better stations while ICC uses their powerful missiles

I like how the first statement of this thread was how they were in a fleet of stns and dreads and couldn't handle the sparrow spamming, how about you get into a ship that moves faster than 6gu/s and kill them using eccm and beams, thats a very easy fix that could be done in a few min.... problem solved

few things about this
1. I hate how a ship can fire at you w/o you being even able to fire back because off all the ecm they have equiped from standerd model makes it impossible to even target them.
2. I think its awsome theres finaly a small ship with the raw power to stop large ships but the attack must be maintained for it to have a proper effect.
3. this finaly forces dred only and station only fleets to get a more balanced fleet make-up. Creating much more tacticly involved battles.
4. I think there should be about 15 less missles per frig. the amount they currently carry is far to much.
5. if ive repeated anything from upcomming update notes... well to bad.
