Gallente is manliest.

Proven fact.

I won't argue with that. I do fly other frigate fits though, which gives me a different look at things.

By "short range" I assume you mean within scram range. If so, you are very wrong. Gallente have awful ships for scram range fighting when it goes up against a rocket condor, rocket kestrel, or god forbid the hookbill. Not to mention if you find something that uses neuts.


I actually wasn't talking about frigates here, but rather about those same armor cruisers. I am also fairly certain a rail Incursus is very effective at fighting scram range rocket frigs.

Also false.


I do mean both. Obviously they complement each other wonderfully. You're also selling Gallente short in your analysis of the frigate line-up. The Incursus' best fit is not the dual rep one. It can by rail or blaster fit w/ a single rep and do much better. The tristan also doesn't have to be fit with 3 neuts, a single neut will get a frigate neuted dry as well.
I'm no fan of the atron, but given it's speed it should be able to keep from getting kited in the hands of a decent pilot.
