Looking to build an awesome pvp battleship. Solo to Small gang work. The budget is 10 billion to make it because I can. Any ideas for a super awesome battleship?

Are you wanting to buy one pimped out ship for that 10b, or do you want a good but still disposable ship that you can buy in batches of 20?

Pimped if possible.

If you really want to throw ISK at it, a Bhaalgorn is probably the best solo/small gang BS. However, pirate BSes tend to get primaried a lot. If you just want the attention that a pirate BS will get you, get a Scorpion and fit that out, you'll still be at the top of the primaries, but you can loose about 50 of them and not really feel it much if they're insured.

Mach works as well as Bhaalgorn, different playstyles though.

Personally, I'd buy a batch of Domis.

The ship is anything from caldari to gallente to minmatar and I have maxed out my missiles and my gunnery for these races. Hope this helps.

My playstyle is hit them hard and tank it out. Which of these supports that if any?

"Tank it out" suggests Rattlesnake... "hit them hard", less so, but you can still get 1000 DPS out of a Rattler. But since mobility is a better form of tank then, well, tank, the answer is really "Machariel".

Or Vindicator if you want to blow all that isk on one ship. Just pray to god you don't run into a curse.

I'd put it like this

1) Machariel. Cynabal on steroids, probably the easiest one to use of the bunch atleast in gangs.
2) Bhaalgorn. Make sure you got a few Guardians with you.
3) Vindicator. Be a PVP hero like Farjung or die trying.

I fly one similar in high sec warfare and low sec solo gate camps. A little less expensive, A type booster and regular invulns. But if you have a 10b budget why not go for broke?

2200 sustained def for 3 mins, 2767 OH.
1181 DPS, 1321 OH.

This ship will get you fights, and win all of them. Change disruptor for scram if solo, you need that extra little bit of speed control for BC's who get under your guns. This ship is easily capable of soloing 4-5 times its number and breaking gatecamps with ease. Just don't try to get away, have a backup alt to drop you boosters or bring friends to ensure the fight doesn't outlast your cap charges.

Plug in HG crystals to enjoy 4122 OH'd defense, 3313 non OH.

Suggest using ECM Drones if solo.

Reading garmon's posts really got me down.
I guess i should've expected massive epeen stroking from someone flying a 8b BS in solo pvp.

Deadspace fit Machariel and it won't cost you that much. Fastest BS in the game, one of the best alpha's, great sniper.
