I've been avoiding training for cap ships because I never wanted to deal with a cyno alt.

I could not be happier that cap ships will be able to use gates!!!

Solowtfbbqlosecpwnmobile??? Yes please.

So . . . what should I start with?

Please post suggested fits for the new reign of solo cap ship gate terror.

Phoenix. Put sebos, long point and tp in mids and BCU's in low. Gatecamp all day long.

Post with your NPC alt main and not your main main alt!

Train for Rev.

Get all the guys in RvB to train Rev, you can use blue lazors, they can use red.

I'm kind of in the same place. I figured that if I was going use a dread, it would be for structure shoots, so I figured I'd use the Pheonix because it had good tank and was best at structure shooting, but some FW people suggested that the moros would be a more flexible option.

Jump Freighter.

Nothing says "hurt me" like an 8 billion isk hull with no guns.

I met a girl the other night wearing pants that literally had "Hurt Me" written across the butt.

But other than that I agree.

If it was me, I would use a carrier to cause havoc. Probably a Thanatos. Not overly expensive to lose if you get into trouble, especially after the jumping changes, and you can be more flexible with the drones you use, from sentries to lights, or mix them up with ECM drones and Combats and so on.

Yeah, I'm kind of leaning towards a carrier.

Rorqual. By the time you finish with the training, it'll be boosted.
