If not for Amarr we would not have the glorious Khanid Innovation ships. It would be nice to have a KI Battleship tho.

I used to fly almost exclusively amarr, then they nerfed the hurricane so now I exclusively fly amarr.

Hi guys, I love Amarr. Just the idea of a shitload of armour and lazorzz and the beautiful designs attracts me too much. Now, lately I can't help but notice that not a lot of people fly Amarr, which means that there are not a lot of fleets that will benefit from a good old armour tank (with so little people flying logi for armour rep).

So my question is this, is going for Amarr worth it? Will I spit on my monitor every time I fly out my Abaddon and wish it was a Raven?


I'm training both Caldari and Amarr. Sure it will take a long time but i'm getting the best of both worlds in terms of shield tanking and armor tanking. As an added bonus you will be able to fly Sansha ships that have superior firepower.

Sansha ships are terrible.

I think their smaller hull suffer hard from the mobility penality of armor tank, for not so good tank now that we have ASB.
It is like Amarr small ships are condemned to Kite to succeed.

On bigger hull, mobility isn't as critical so it doesn't matter as much.

Go for Amarr you'll not regret it an armor tanked abby with a full rack of mega pulse lasers is a sight to behold.

What you should keep in mind though is that there is no reason to confine yourself to only one type of tank or one race of ships. If you can only do 1 thing well then 2/3's of every situation will feel impossible. If you train more than one tool then instead of being impossible 2/3's off every situation only make you feel stupid for bringing the wrong ship.


Doing one thing well beats doing nothing well. Don't tell a month in newb to crosstrain.

Reopen the EVE gate so we can invade Serenity. Goons can go first.
