CCP can we please get a t1 missile armor cruiser?
theres to much inconsistency in ships, the bellicose is pretty useless armor missile boat, can we please get something to fly in armor fleets that isnt paper tanked or t2?

Arbitrator? I know its drone bonused, but it can still fit RLML if you want. Bellicose functions better as a shield ship anyway.

I heard someone mention making the maller a missile boat. That could be interesting. Would make progression to sac make more sense. Otherwise i think you are SOL. Once skilled, the sac would fit what youre looking for well.

Give Battlecruisers range to fullfil their Anti-Cruiser role - OP SUCCESS

Nothing T1 really. The Sacrilege is a rock hard armor missile boat though.

Arbitrator, Prophecy, Armageddon.

All drone boats that armor tank and have the ability to use missiles.

T2 Amarrship then take the armor and missiles aspects and specialize in them. There is very little that is inconsistent there.

How did you Veterans start?

Scythe Fleet Issue has a 5-5-5 slot layout so you can armor tank it if you want and has bonuses for missiles and the Sacrilege is probably the only cruiser specifically designed to combine missiles and armor - but does it very well.

This, but you could try have some fun with Hull tank of Schythe FI.

Shocked hull with omni dmg bonus. This makes perfect sense with lasers/drons race. Perfect sense with caldari kinetic lock also...

There's also Gnosis that is still not too expensive. Considerably more expensive than T1 cruisers though, so there's that.

This post probably deserves a lol, but not much else to say here I'm afraid. There's very little a pilot with mostly missile skills can do in a T1 cruiser gang as a line member.
