Summary

Fleet Command Ships are a great concept and they have a lot of potential. However as it is now, that potential is really only realized at near-blob levels and in the case of Information Warfare Links, hardly realized at all because of their dilluted effects.

Solution

• Normalize the base bonus of all warfare links to 3%.

• Make the following changes to Info Links to give them relevance and a niche:

-Sensor Integrity: Apply bonus to scan resolution and targeting range in addition to sensor strength -Role the range bonus of Recon Operation into the Electronic Superiority link -Change the bonus of Recon Operation to apply to scan probe strength

Pros

• Promotes use of fleet command ships in small/medium scale PVP
• Increases competitiveness of the Eos which is rarely deployed in PVP currently
• Gives more tools to wormholeers and combat probers

Cons

• May not be a strong enough boost to accomplish goal
• Balance in large scale fleets needs to be evaluated
