I was reading thru patchnotes and descriptions about how much the Vigilant sucks, and it came to my coffee-fueled brain this inspired thought:
There are faction ships for every mix of faction (Caldari & Gallente, Caldari & Amarr, Gallente & Minmatar, etc...), but there are NO faction ships that combine both Gallente and Amarr races. Why is that???
As a side note, yes i am Gallente and Amarr specc'd, but that's besides the point.

Not sure why they didn't maybe they ran out of Pirate factions to base them off of.

Probably because they're already so similar. They both armor tank, although gallente have more mids typically. They both like drones, although gallente have a few more drone focused ships. The only major difference is lasers vs blasters and racial ewar.
I guess you could get something interesting if you had a laser boat with extra scram range.

Actualy there is allready one faction in the game that uses a amarr/gallente mix.
It is called EOM and they use black amarr ships(simlar to Khanid ships) with hybrid turrets and shieldtank.
But it would be a lot better to fix old faction ships first than to add new types.

They also use missiles which makes me think they are more amarr/caldari.

I, for one, would love to see black Amarr ships, even if they are fitted with hybrids.
(*cries a bit)
Bring on the EOM ships!

Well, the Megathron does have those useless missle slots that people get flamed for fitting launchers into.

Well then today's your lucky day because they already exist. They're called khanid.

Zealot + 4th mid + scram range bonus = very yes

What exactly should the optimum Mega pilot be putting in those slots instead?

I would welcome new pirate battleships (new hulls, I mean, something unique) which covered the two weapon systems left aside: hybrid turrets and missiles.
Nightmare and Machariel are authentic pimp-mobiles (Machariel less so since the nano nerf, but it looks great), but hybrid users only have the Serpentis modified Megathron. Missile users, not even that (not a clue on what the Rattlesnake uses).
I'd love something different, and the Gallente/Caldari and Amarr/Minmatar combinations are still unused, as are the Gallente/Amarr and Minmatar/Caldari, which overlap pretty nicely.
