Not sure how that'd go over being as they're piloted by drones. |

I believe the MCC will be your answer. Apparently the commander will be in charge of it |

Yeah, I'm gonna bet those are the largest asset available. And yes, the Commander will have control over it in a similar manner to how the commander player could move the Titan in BF2142. To increase the similarity, the MCC also has underbelly turrets for fire support which I assume can be gunned by other players. I would assume that when FW battles go out, we'll actually have the MCC as an initial spawn point. |

Unless they pull out some old stuff from the art of eve book. They have concept sketches for mobile land fortresses. Something like giant tanks. |

MCC as a spawn point would be awesome. It would tick one of the boxes that I've been looking for (see my 'Space Drop' thread). |

The point about titans coming later is decent though. Right now they have this huge game to make, a foundation for stuff like big, expensive, powerful tanks or dropsuits or whatever to be added onto. Something equivalent to titans really would be a post-release thing. Right now, if they even manage to release with all 8 vehicle types and every race type per dropsuit/vehicle/etc it'll be a miracle. |

Funny fact: upon releasing Titans, CCP was certain that they were so massive and represented such an enormous investment that maybe 13 or so of them would ever be made.

Dust has..... wait for it.... Yours Truly 
In all seriousness. The current pinnacle consists of tanks, for now that is. |

Also I think some of the deploy-able structures will be quite high on the investment chain. |

*.......thinks back..... IF I remember correctly they didn't go in until the Winter expansion in late 07, or early 08. And that was almost 5 years after the game launched. Was gonna say, Dreadnaughts had only been put into the game in late 05 I think. I remember because it was early in 06 when Forsaken Empire attacked Phoenix Alliance, and that was shortly before I had moved to Texas in october of 06. Forgot which battle, and it was considered a massive capital battle because there were 30-50ish dreads there, that was a lot at the time.
You gotta think though. Eve launched June of 03. You didn't start seeing many battleships around until after the first major expansion patch in early 04, when they released the tier 2 BS's. Even then the weren't mainline fleet ships, unless you had certain skills trained up. I believe interceptor t2 frigs went into the game at the same time as the tier 2 BS's.
I say it'll be a while before we have Dust Titan equiv. Otherwise, I'm gonna say the equiv would be calling down an orbital strike from a small fleet of BS in orbit. Scary would be if they allowed torp ravens to participate in that. |

War barges. These are the capital ships that transport everhing for a planetary invasion. This is where the lobby before games is located. Militias will provide these for factonal warfare, but for alliances and corps, you'll probably have to provide your own.
MCCs will probably be the biggest unit in the actual ground battle, though. |

Well, here is some background lore on Titans http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Titans . The original idea the Empires got them from is located here http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Jovian_Motherships . And yeah, the first Titan manufactured was May 2008...so winter expansion of 07-08. |
