The Tornado is a myth they are deceiving us...

Good to see it is being worked on.

I wonder how old that picture is.

Hopefully we will see the Tornado in the winter expansion.

Watch it end up being a logistics battleship or something with some totally random bonus that is useless to most people.

At this point I don't really care what it does. It just looks even cooler than the Maelstrom, and I'm ready for an upgrade. Cool

Assuming it costs less than say, the Machariel.

You say that now but just you wait until you find out that it has a bonus to tracking links and target painting and only has 6 highs.

i am hoping that ccp will add some ships for unsused pirate factions like mordus legion and what not... so i am hoping that the tornado will be some new pirate faction minni/caldari bs....

Add it to the Thukker Tribe ? Since those guys are minmatars. Longrange webs, shield tanking powerhouse.

A battleship with web bonuses would be extremely awesome. Also a great loot pinata for the currently underused officer webs.

you dont understand the word "like" do you?

let me help:

sim·i·le
noun /ˈsiməlē/ 
similes, plural

A figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more emphatic or vivid (e.g., as brave as a lion, crazy like a fox)

The use of such a method of comparison

Webbing bonus would be interesting. Usually use arties on my Mael, so I hadn't ever really considered a webber BS with autos. Slow as they are, a web would be mighty nice to snag speedy targets. Like say, pirate Machariels that can fly circles around normal battleships Pirate

Webs are Serpentis AND Gallente stuff so don't touch it or cross train !!

Autos already pick Blasters niche so what's next? -Winmatar dampeners? well those at least would work properly...

Yay! An upside-down, backwards-flying, Myrmidon!

I think they picked the wrong design.

Oh, well. What's done, is done, right?

I'm excited to see what they do with it. One of the Devs made it sound like there would be one (new ship) for other factions too.

You can't add a brand new BS for one race without adding them for the other races...can you?...unless its some BP you can only get in incursions or something :)
