the balkanization of eve is pretty cool, a few years ago that maps didn't have such a variety of colours

hopefully the new sov changes promote the idea of some smaller dudes moving into a shittier constellation and making it their own, instead of massive rental empires being the norm

from a "making the map more interesting" point the new sov system seems to be doing well

You're not going to see that though. The maps aren't setup that way. The layout encourages large blues lists, since no one wants to do the things that make space their own when they have neuts flying through system.

i assume that the changes to caps and whatnot will make places within jumprange of HS or LS much more valuable as opposed to deep-rear end places like PB, Omist, and Branch/Tenal

It's more about logistics. There's ways to go about it, all if them have their pros and cons. Moon goo density and distribution means you need to have a good throughput of freight. Even if you have enough dudes sourcing minerals locally.

Of course any change to make null less dependent on highsec is usually met with gnashing of teeth.

This is also ignoring the dichotomy of certain groups wanting to have gank targets for gud fites, but they also want changes that guarantee those targets won't exist.

skill injectors just made it more convenient, but you could always buy a poo poo-ton of plex and then overpay for a dude on the character bazaar, then proceed to lose tonnes of faction bs/carriers/t3s

Force auxiliaries (aka fax machines) are the new class of remote rep carriers that are being introduced to replace existing triage carriers. Fax skills are the skills that were going to be needed to fly them, until players got mad and forced CCP to make the existing carrier skills apply to fax machines as well as the new dps carriers. CCP released the fax machine skillbooks onto the market to give players the opportunity to train the skill up before the ships were released, but now that they've changed their plans, they've stated that the skillbooks will be deleted in a future patch and that everyone who bought them will have their ISK cost reimbursed and any skillpoints invested into the fax skills will be reimbursed as free SP.

Oh man this is cool, I always thought that having Carriers serve two rolls at once was kind of weird, but having actual logi carriers will be a lot more fun :3:

though it will also make carriers significantly less useful

Plus, FAXes get to use drones while in triage :getin:

The flip side is that remote reps are basically useless outside of triage -- they've moved a ton of the bonuses previously on the hull (and about half of the RR modules' stats) into the triage module. The non-FAX carriers can fit them, but outside of triage, they're only barely better than large remote reps.

Yes, all of which means you can only live in those far corners of 0.0 if you're on good terms with the entities living in between you and Jita. Which means NIPs, NAPs, coalitions and Bloobloobloo Donuts.

I'd have thought there'd be an opportunity here to make those wormhole-attracting ihub upgrades worth a poo poo, so you could conceivably hold space in deep null and do your logistics/roaming via wormholes, with the risk that barbarians may periodically come screaming out of nowhere.

The risk is not worth the reward really. You can move some stuff through holes. And they are fickle.

No, all skills can be "injected" via a skillbook you buy. You can buy a skill injector which gives you skillpoints to spend on whatever skills you want rather than spending time training that specific skill.

Lets look at two other regions where people 'live' in their space: Fountain and Querious, they arent blue with their neighbors but all moons, decent truesec, etc. have been divvied up and NIPS/NAPS put into place.

They small gang roam and shoot each other in frigates. These guys space is soo safe they can leave for months to come north and do the MBC thing.

In fact they have to leave their space to find 'fights' because nobody fights locally at least over anything that matters. Same as it ever was.

All skillbook have to be bought or acquired by some means.
You then inject said skillbook into your head.
Once the skill is injected and you meet the prerequieste, you can train it.

To train ityou can either train it naturaly (speed depend on your atributes/implants and skill modifier).
Or you can purchase a skill injector to inject skillpoints into your head then apply said skillpoints to your skill queue.
