to add insult to injury ICC spam stations more than UGTO more often than not
by more i mean more often and with more stations
aparently ICC also almost abandoned the concept of small ships, heard many ICC players saying dessies were useless
now i do see cruiser and dessies, but they are the best vets mostly, or some new person who cant use dreads/stations

Usually when Im in...I bring out the station as support or I have my scb to build repair plats.for example...Today we had a small fleet originally(with me as dictor) disrupting UGTO supply lines when we found a small UGTO force ( station and dread) in CINN. when we engaged said force with several dessies a dictor and 1 MD.as the UGTO fleet increased in size I changed to scb for plat building at the gate...1 SS joined us..rest were still all smaller dessies and cruisers.at the time I logged there were still only 2 ICC stations,1 MD and rest were cruisers or smaller.UGTO had 3 stations or so rest all dreads except Mrbig who was in a corv harrassing our rear.It was a BEEEEUUUTIFUL fight going,unfortunatley MY senior officer had me recalled from duty to attend a few special functions( in other words damn wife want me to go get her then take her out to lunch).Hoping this trend continues again in Darkspace.

Biggest station spam I have seen from ICC lately is 4 Support Stations sitting by Cinci gate acting as a repair lot for the rest of the fleet. Also acting as incentives for Kluth to attack, silly Kluth, attacking 4 stations sitting near one another is not something to do. Especially when the Combat Dessy got an new redo and now is an awesome ship (I loved my CD before but now....oh its just wonderful).

Cruisers will be the most popular, and iv not tried the new dessy but last i check it sucked.
however if its anything like the UGTO assault dessy i will have the ship fully stocked in my garage ASAP.
damn near took out a fleet with that lil thing... damn scen timer... stopping me finishing the job >.>

This is quite true, as of late ICC has been not fielding as many stations as before. With the new dessy now, its been Dessys and HC's with random dreads or stations in support. The way the game SHOULD be, 1 or 2 Support Stations or SCB's, or an SCB and LS together with 2 or 3 AD's and a smattering of Cdessys and HC's. Thats the layout of the last few ICC attack and defensive fleets as of late.

I just freaked out when i came back and i was playing ugto in scenario because icc was full. Then I see a line of 5 or 6 stations, and i make a joke like "woah icc station spam, thats new" and someone else said "that hasn't been new for 3 weeks". I just about died

Exactly what disappointed you: the faction or the players?

Maybe it's the beer in the crew's mess at deck 34 of the Support Station.
