Just an idea from a newbie, who dislikes the whole "EWAR or bust" approach to PVP at the moment.

Perhaps the solution would not so much be to nerf the hell out of the EWAR, because as some have already pointed out, speed defines the EWAR and nerfing that would just lead to a whole bunch of packaged bots collecting dust in a hangar somewhere.

I'm thinking that the recently implemented interference system should have a very heavy effect on EWARs specifically. So that it's mass zerging potential gets reduced, but it's overall abilities (scouting, smallscale PVP) remain powerful.

Just some brainstorming. I'm still fairly new to the game and am learning more every day, but as I stated above, I hate how PVP is pretty much defined by EWAR bots at the moment.
