I was under the impression that ADS prices were coming down, but don't see it in the patch notes. Was that idea cut off? There was at least a 500 shield buff to the Python, but I had hoped that the price of an ADS would be around 175K, considering how a tank is about 50K...

If my tank actually got bonuses per level, I'd be fine with a higher price tag.
50K is ridiculous. I'd also like to point out that the militias are EVEN CHEAPER. If you lose 4 tanks a match and still make profit, something's wrong.

If you can lose 4 tanks a match and still make profit, something's wrong. Well I can assure you the tanks I fit and use cost quite a bit more than 50k. Large Turrets are actually quite expensive.
Militia turrets seem to be effective, too. A militia swarm SHOULD be able to take out a militia tank, but thanks to CCP's reasoning, even prof V protos have issues taking them down. Well played.
If an ADS goes down, you're losing money for this match PLUS the next match. And that's if you get 200K per match. If you don't, you're bleeding money for even longer. Tanks are underpriced and everyone knows it.

And equivalent tier HAV does not exist, the closest thing we have however is worth 200K ISK don't even attempt to pretend an MLT HAV is equal in power and value to an ADS. You now effectively have skytanks...... I'm even considering skilling them now they are so cheap and going to be very difficult to take down.
We have SMALL TURRETS. Plus, they're not, "cheap". My best ADS is 600K. Actually, you're right. a Militia tank isn't equal to an ADS. It's better. Twenty militia tanks are the same price as one ADS. Militia tanks get a large turret slot, plus more HP.

Actual tanks, not these crap fit, wanna-be MLT fits that scrubs think are sooo powerful, can actually push a decent price tag (upwards of 400-500k easy).
What game do you play? Because I play this game made by CCP called DUST 514, and militia tanks are 25K with a BUILT-IN MODULES. STD tanks can't be beaten by two proficiency V swarms, and with an ADV turret, costs about 225K.
