IMO...
They're really not terribly expensive, besides, I doubt ANYONE who has played for a least a week has a problem buying just about any ship they want.
I have seen numerous pilots with tremendous amounts of PP, several with mutiple accounts fat with PP.
Besides...you should have to EARN the right to fly a BCH (or any Capitol ship) by flying more than a couple missions, not starting off with enough PP to make it just a tiny bit shy of having enough to get one. As it is, you've got enough at the sart to get a War Cruiser or small X ship right away.
Make em work for it, I say!  ;D

The prices are actually too cheap. You need to add some really fun "behind-the-lines" PP farming missions too.

Upon destruction of a ship(any side, ai included) the mission would end prematuraly. This happened approximately 75% of the time.

My view - I was too busy to get on this server early on and every time I have checked lately it's been full of big ships.  Since rules now are limiting the BCH's and above as well as the X ships why not make ALL the ships cheaper?  I find little pleasure in the thought of trying to catch and get PP by hex flipping for several hours so I can eventually get a ship to challenge with in P vs P.

CLX's and CAX's are cheap. You can nearly afford the latter straight off. They are easier to fly than BC's which in EEK missions draw stiffer AI. BC's are still competitive, and generally more available in numbers than X ships, but at this time, mb a 2k reduction is in order for the little guys.

A lot of good it does the casual guy if X-ships are cheap as there is usually full limit of X-ship on the map at a time.  Only the Frigate-X are free.

I think all ships should cost 1.  Reasons are

1-I think so, so it is (commonly known as the Hexx complex) :P
2-Because I made a new rule saying it is (commonly known as the Dizzy complex) 8)
3-Because I designed the shiplist (commonly known as the Die-Hard complex) >:(
4-Because <insert funny pic here>(commonly known as the Chutt complex) :D
5-Because I talk too much (commonly known as the Shin-Josh complex) :-X


Seriously, they should all cost 1.  Any hex nutter can still go nuts, because we need hexes flipped
                                              Any PvPer can get what he wants, when he wants, provided staying within HM points
