Every ship needs its niche, a specialized role at which it excels without too much overlap from its closest relatives. With multitasking behemoths like the Capital ships, such balancing becomes a very delicate matter considering the sheer scale of their power.

CCP Chronotis' previous blog on Dominion's new Sovereignty system gave you a broad overview of the available upgrades and the system that enables them. Today we are going to delve a little deeper into the inner workings of the upgrades of space available to you through the new Infrastructure system in Dominion and the various factors surrounding them. Let's start with answering a few of the more common concerns that have arisen from your feedback so far.
I thought you were getting rid of ‘Sov levels' but now I see there are five of them?
Think of them less as Sov levels and more as time-based indices. These are needed in order to preserve the game play centered on your commitment to your space. Another point to be clear on is that these time indices are applicable only toward Strategic upgrades. They have no bearing on your Military or Industrial upgrades.
I want to take my enemy's upgrades but I'm forced to destroy the Infrastructure Hub.

Geminate, U-L4KS: In what has been reported as "an attempt to gain a foothold in the Geminate region", SOLAR FLEET [SOLAR] forces engaged elements of the Wildly Inappropriate. [WI.] alliance, losing fourteen of their carriers in the process.
Tomcat, of Lone Star Joint Venture [LSJV], alliance leader for [WI.] reports that during an operation to take down several SOLAR FLEET towers "[SOLAR] shows up in the system U-L4KS, with their fleet of forty to fifty, mostly battleships, and begins to hit a jump bridge tower in that system." Tomcat goes on to set the stage by stating "we jump in, bubbles go up and the fight begins; both sides were heavy RR-based (remote repairing) so a nice slugfest begins."
What happens next is a gradual escalation of "capital ship support drops", first by [WI.], followed by [SOLAR]. The exact number of carriers on the field is not known, but it is estimated at over thirty combined total.
When the fight ended, Solar Fleet suffered a loss of fourteen carriers, while Wildly Inappropriate. lost none. According to DENWIR, member of The First Foundation [TFFN], fleet Commander for [SOLAR] two mistakes contributed to this loss: allowing the battle to take place in range of the [WI.] tower which "interrupted the spider tank on the carriers with it’s constant jamming" and "being surprised by the [WI.] reinforcements, which made the numbers 64 vs. 191."
While Tomcat acknowledges that this battle did not change the balance of power between the two opposing alliances, he feels that "this was definitely a morale boost for [WI.]; having such a decisive victory... as far as overall status of geminate, it still fully remains under WI control."
