I trained Amarr battleships when the Abaddon came out. It just looked so ******* amazing and badass I had to have it.

I'm surprised so many people like the Megathron. When I saw it I thought it was the most hiddeous ship in Eve. It's split hull design makes no sense (no split hull design makes sense from an engineering point of view) and other than that it looks lumpy and weird (like most Gallente ships).

My favorites are the caldari capitals (any of them). They actually look like you would expect a spaceship to look like.

I have a special love for all my caldari ships. Rokh is the king of them all.

My two favorite so far are the Republic Fleet Firetail and the Maelstrom. The Maelstrom just looks like a giant space faring pirate ship, sails and all.

I'm pretty sure he means SPACE hulls since, you know, that's what we are talking about in a SAPCESHIP game Roll

That said, on the SEA double hulls make all the sense in the world, quite hard to sink for one, added stability for another.

Larger surface area for shield emitter's, weapons, sensors. Damage control (segment one part whilst the other still works), construction (can be built in identical (ish) parts). Efficiency (power supply in parallel not series). Different dynamics for maneuvering... ect.

i know this might not all work for the mega but there are reasons Big smile

Any EOM ships.

To be honest, they should replace all the Khanid flavored Amarr ships with EOM paint schemes.

+1 for Mega... totally the coolest looking ship. And its pirate off shoot the vindi isn't half bad in giant ship on ship combat.

On the mention of the EOM ships, anyone else noticed that EOM are still using the old Maller model?

Personally, I'm glad to see it's still in game as it looks better imo.

add a +1 for the Brutix.

No other ships looks more like a brawler than it.

Yeah, Mega is my favorite, but Brutix is a close second. I would bet out of all of the promotional screenshots, magazine covers, etc, the Brutix is probably the most used hull.

Its like a space mace of face wasting.

spaceship, Spaceship, SPACESHIP!

Just had to say how much I hate the look of the Thrasher because I know everyone cares about my opinion. It looks like a damned fish to me...

I've always loved the Thrasher, precisely because it looks like some sort of demented techno-fish.

Of course, a love my Pilgrim more (so much I had to make some wallpaper for it). But the Curse really does take the prize for most awesome looking ship IMHO...
