i'm making a dread compairison topic for fun, our humble deadly mini-moons vs. the mobile stations that are EvE's dreads
Comapirison 1, speed: DS Dread-big and kinda fast. EvE Dread-slower then a retarded turtle going uphill at a forty degree angle, unless they can use MWDs (micro-warp drives, or super boosters if you will)
Compairison 2, Firepower: DS Dread-enough to turn a planet into rubble if they weren't invincible. EvE Dread-generally they can mount cannons the size of frigates but the caldari one can mount several Uber missiles
Compairison 3, Muti-system ability: DS dread, restricted to useing jump gates. EvE Dread-from digging thru EvE-online.com, it would seem that their Dreads act as their own jump gate
Compairison 4, time it takes to get one: DS Dread-depends, generally it's a month. EvE Dread-mostly around 9, yes that's right, 9 months
and that's all i can think of, discuss if you want
[this random bit of boredom has been brought to you by Shenlong....ME NEED COFFEE!!!]

Comparison 5: When you lose a ship in DS, you get all the credits back! YAY!, when you lose one in EVE, back to 5 months of mining for money!

Battleships can bought for money... hence the "mine for 5 month" comments. No need to build it yourselve, just Buy one from the market.
6.) Never Compare Aples and Tomatoes... If you do, the Evil Ronald McDonald Clown Clone will come and Torture with Bic Macs soaked in Ketchup.

With Skills, componts and assembly your looking at just about 5 to 10 BILLION isk and maybe a year before you are flying in a deadnaught in eve. I have not done the calculations but just quessing as the skill for most dreadnaughts or upwards 1/2 a bill isk.
