having used both ships for a bit in my earlier days, I would say both ships are fine.
As someone said earlier, retributions have pretty heavy dps with range, so if there are other tacklers it is not that bad of a choice.
Vengeances are also not bad either as it can have a cruiser sized buffer tank with an ok frig dps.
But after i trained minmatar frigs I stopped flying them.
the speed thing is so addictive.

Any use a Retri when other AFs do the same job but better?
I have yet to find a single frigate that can dish out the damage and tank as well as the retribution.
Wolf. Ishkur.
Jag isn't far behind.
And besides, for the same price you can always fit a few nano ruptures and do more damage, having nearly the same mobility, AND have a point.

Pop the drones at range, out tank the DPS and lol.
Good luck doing that with lasers and lol. Tracking distruptor on the retribution and lol. Neut the retribution and lol. Jam the retribution and lol. Damp the retribution and lol. Or warp away because the retribution doesn't have a point and lol.
If you e war a ship its not gonna be anygood regardless of ship type lol.
And the ret is alright in a gang since it can pull 180dps at 20 km and wolf jag ishkurs cant do that at 20km.
While im not saying rets are the best AFs out there, its far from useless if someone tackles for you.
However, b/c of the lack of mid slots, i would only fly it in a wolf pack.
IMO from my experience in flying rets a bit, its pretty good if your flying in a frig only gang but not worth it in any other.

this post kinda made me want to get my combat toon back into FW so i can actually fly in frig gangs..
All i fly now for combat is T2 cruisers and BCs... i kinda miss the speed of frigs.
