Who to cross-train to from Amarr?

So right now my pew pew char is pure Amarr, Awesome skills too, but I'm find myself wanting to cross-train into another race, either Minmatar or Caldari since they both have Pirate Faction ships related to amarr. I'm not sure which I want to go for though, don't really feel like training both.

Now with Caldari it would give me the nightmare and some more awesome ships (Not the tengu, that's too mainstream for The Shroom) but the thing is it would require a whole new shield tanking skill and I would have to train missile support skills.

Now with Minmatar I already have Awesome Gunnery skills and awesome armor skills, but some minny ships do shield tank so it's similar to caldari. On a good note it would unlock the Bhaal which is a beast of a ship and also the Ash and Cruor which aren't as good but still alright.

What ya guys think?

minmatar, enjoy playing the two most functional races in EVE with not a wasted skill point.

You'd usually want shield tank skills as Amarr anyway - I had them maxed out on my Amarr char for the Curse and Harb anyway before crosstraining anything.

Having that said, I've hardly flown any Amarr ship except Curse, Abaddon and Archon since the projectile buff...

Rust. Trust in it.

Try not. Do. Or do not. There is no try.

Minmatar. You should be podded just for needing to ask!

Do not assume anything above this line was typed by me. Nerf the Truth, it's inconvenient.
