Faction Warfare

I'm thinking of starting a new character for faction warfare, and I'm wondering if anyone has any advice on which race to go for. I want to be storyline-friendly (i.e. if I do Caldari FW I'll be a Caldari toon flying Caldari ships). Any pros/cons on all four races (specifically for FW) would be appreciated. Thanks!

Youll probably want to ask in Warfare and Tactics for the most up to date FW related info.

If youre into Roleplaying FW, im sure a little question in the Roleplayer section wouldnt hurt.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

I do (well don't really do properly as a FW member) FW systems. Imho most pilots seem to be Minmatar or Caldari with the odd Galente thrown in.

If you want to do FW for the lolRP, it really doesn't matter about the pros/cons of each race, does it?

With the increase in shiptoasting, the Report timer needs to be shortened.

Don't worry too to much about being storyline friendly, you'll eventually cross train other races for pirate stuff or because they just have cool ships. If your starting cal though i'd recommend training Gallente next for the hybrid platforms / guristas stuff. (and for the haters 1000 dps sentry rattler is winsauce ).

Keep in mind that the RP section is strictly in character. If you want to inquire about FW there, be sure to RP while doing it.

Yes. I did forget that part.

I left nullsec because I got bored of shooting structures so I decided to try some FW. They made me spend the whole morning shooting structures Straight
