Currently when you buy a tank if it's armour it comes with a blaster and if it's shield it comes with a railgun.
This makes zero sense if the shield tanks racial weapon is a missile and the armour tanks is a blaster. Why does the armour tank get it's racial turret with zero skills invested and zero extra cost?.
Currently you can get militia variants of all turrets, yet the large missile turrets require skilling up and buying. The armour tanks get their racial variant free and for no skill cost as standard with the hull.
Bring back the gallente railgun from the E3 build and put that on all armour tanks hulls as standard. As much as I hate using missiles on my tanks, if I have to skill up to use it then so should an armour tank.
It makes no sense at present. |

Quite honestly, having racial variation (such as shield LAVs with missile launcher vs armour LAV with blaster) is an extremely slippery slope. It gives rise to a "best" race. Currently Caldari / Minmitar. |

The Caldari HAV has a rail gun, because Caldari's main weapon is Railguns. Yes they have a few key ships that specialize in missiles. But a fair amount specialize in Rails and EW. Gallente vehicles tend to come with blasters for the same reason, Gallente specialize in Blasters and Drones. It would help though, if we had more variety to choose from though with Vehicles. |

irrelevant for anything but marauders.
by the time you have a marauder, youll probably have the skills and money so this wont even be a problem. |

I see and agree with most points, but if Caldari uses railguns then why the hell does the marauder skill benefit missiles?.
This could easily be fixed if there was a militia missile, but there isn't.
Currently all Gallente tanks are instantly how they should be with no extra investment. You have to spec into small missiles tonnes before you even get one and when missiles finally get fixed having small missiles will be pretty useless judging by how CCP "fix" things.
I honestly don't think it's that bad a fix giving both rails tbh. There's a gallente model in existance already so that say to me that this was the way they intended them. Base tank with crappy rail and then spec into your racial variant. At present that's just not the case. |

No. CCP has no intention of restricting game play like this. They are already trying to force tanks to be selfrep tanks. thats bad enough
