The wait is over! The draw has taken place!

If you want to know which alliance your alliance is fighting in the AT X or if you're just anxious to start arranging your summer around exploding spaceships, look no further than Navigator´s and Alvaldi's new blog filled to the brim with information about this year's largest sporting event (sorry4owning, EURO Cup and Olympics).

And don't forget to leave your feedback, we want to know who you think is going to take the big prize home.

I really like your plan to stream previous torunaments as a warmup to this year's tournament. It is nice to revisit them and they will hopefully get some additional momentum going for this year's competition.

Just as an update, CCP Abraxas finalized the names of the ships and descriptions as follows:

The Osprey hull is Etana. The name is drawn from the same branch of mythology as the Gallente Ishtar and the AT8 Utu, and has a nice connotation with some ancient Caldari-Gallente history involving Caldari Prime.

The Merlin hull is Cambion. The name comes from a half-demonic entity which ties in nicely in with the description of a crazy, fiery rocket brawler with mad overheating bonuses plus it's believed that the Merlin of wizard fame was either a cambion or descended from one.

Also translates directly to snail in finnish, so that's a plus I guess.

Why was the description of what the Etana does removed?

And why is it based on the Osprey hull and not the Moa?

the full specs of the ships are not final and Game Design are still working on those. It will be a logistics ship with a covert ops cloaking ability although what the final specs will be are subject to change.

Make it a giant stealth bomber with a rep bomb.

You can use different ammo to switch between shield rep, armor rep, hull rep and kugu.com rep.
