how about this:
Amarr Battleship Bonuses: 4% Armor resistances per level
Gallente Battleship Bonuses: 10% drone damage and hitpoints per level
Role bonuses: 200% bonus to Capacitor Transfer, Remote Repair range 50% increased strength for scan probes +10 virus strength for relic and data analyzers 100% reduction in CPU requirements for cloaks
Can fit Covert Ops Cloaking Devices.
Ok I still don't get what everyone has against having Battleships with covert ops cloaks, but still seems to strike fear in so many seeing as they will be an expensive loss to some and an impressive kill for others, really don't see the issue. But if you are going to do a WH exploration battleship you may as well do it right it needs a covert ops cloak, and I doubt they will plague the space ways and fleets for a good while given the requirements to get one and the price tag will probably be up around 1.5 to 2bil if you add the covert ops cloak ability to it.
Again if it is an exploration vessel it will need the ability to explore so scan strength and virus strength will be useful, so I guess those roles can stay the same.
If you are going to make it a logistics platform as well give it some flexibility allow the use of shield and hull reps with a range bonus, this will fit in with the SOE as if you can completely fix a ship in space a long way form a station, however this does not mean that you would necessary fit all the reppers to your ship, but it is nice to have more options. Also energy transfers with a range boost given that logistics isn't worth a damn without a good cap transfer (yes I know that you can fit logi that don't require it, but it does seem to work better with the transfer ).
When the info about this ship was announced it seems that it would have a clone bay and a shuttle bay fitted to it any more details on that? A clone bay that works in a WH would be very useful, and if the shuttle bay can take a few frigates would be better
I guess this wont be a popular approach with some but if you are going for a design to work in an area like WH space and whatever else might be coming to space near us soon it would be nice to have some good tools to do the job, and having an exploration battleship that can take care of its self and evade hostile fleets is going to be a good start. The Stratios and Astero are good ships and an excellent start to this design philosophy of the SOE ships have I personally would love to see it continue into this battleship, but looks like those who fear the cloaked ships might win this one. Yes even I find a cloaked ship hiding in a system frustrating but I don't see why that should effect adding cov ops cloaks to anything bigger than a cruiser.
