Holy crap! This shit is amazing! It almost seems a little overpowered (Ishkur and Jaguar didn't need a massive buff TBH).

Back to reality....wow...the new CCP is scaring me. So much good shit delivered in such a short time frame. Mind you, these stats are still only on the Chaos server. Might be a while before they hit Sisi.

Hot damn, Enyo with a web, Vengance with a spare high for a NOS/Neut, extra mid for a Hawk and an extra low for a Jaguar. Frak, just thinking about these changes is exciting for all the new fits that can be fielded.

It's great to be able to fly all the AF's with the appropriate T2 weapon systems. :)

2012 looks like it will be a good year for EVE.
