The problem is that if both of us have war barges, there would be no reason for us to use ones owned by Eve players.
If only Eve players have war barges, Dust wouldn't really function by itself.
There was a thread discussing this way back in closed beta, and I think I also found another solution.
The old idea was to make war barges owned by Dust players, and able to travel by themselves- slowly. In order to travel long distances, war barges could rely on a Cynosural field to jump.
I don't know **** about them, but I've been led to believe that an eve player would create that field, then a war barge would be able to jump to it. Without the eve player, war barges wouldn't be able to jump, but would still get around.
Here's my alternate idea: put a price on war barges. They also would no longer be given for free to new players.
War Barges could actually appear in orbit above a planet, and be vulnerable to attack. Whenever a Dust player goes into a pub match or FW battle, they use their employer's or faction's war barge.
However, in order to do PC, a player would have to risk their war barge (and all of its upgrades) in order to attack a planet, or have orbital support in defense of a planet.
They could ALSO use an eve player's war barge. War barges would have a fixed price across both games: what's expensive to a Dust player could be cheap to an Eve player- so a war barge wouldn't be that valuable to an eve player.
However, both ideas lack a benefit Eve players would get from helping us.

Shame. Would have been really cool to get the doomsday working, and turn it into makeshift orbital artillery.

Guesstimating size (based off the fact war barges carry MCCs, and there's the visible MCC door on the side, I would say a war barge is about the size of a Drake, but I could be wrong.
Actually, googling a pic for the size of a Drake, a war barge is probably bigger.
