Agreed. If you can make it nearly self-sustaining (at higher standings) if you use all factional gear, problem solved. If you use another races weapons (which, yes, I grudgingly do) then you'll need to grind some pubs.

If you use another races weapons (which, yes, I grudgingly do) then you'll need to grind some pubs. If it is possible to make FW self sustaining in terms of LP gear sales for ISK then sure, LP should never solely be able to sustain a character or it loses its value.
Not completely self sustaining, and certainly not at low standings. Personally, if you are at level 10, I think you should be able to cover at least 80% of your losses with just the LP rewards (plus salvage I guess)... Assuming you'd have to be a pretty good player to get there and wouldn't be losing a ton of suits.
I completely agree that selling your LP assets for ISK would be the best way to do this, but that unfortunately doesn't appear to be an option.

Well, sure, True, that would be great, like the imperial commando and it's hilarious 3 weapon slots that are still there, or the state kalaakiota needle, imperial viziam uplink, etc. I'd love an imperial logi with an extra equip slot and more PG!
However, we are unfortunately stuck with the game we have, not the one we want. In it's current state I'd personally like to have a little more return on my investment, and market value changes seem like the small type of thing Rattati is specializing in right now.
People like you or I obviously don't need extra incentive to fight for the Empire, but some do, and it would be nice to be able to change the balance of FW/pubs needed to be profitable.
