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.
Assuming it costs less than say, the Machariel. |

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 |

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... |

It looks Gallente in design. Maybe it's a multi-faction T3, so it will give bonuses based on each racial BS skill, AND it could have some basic subsystems that would designate it as DPS, EWAR, Support, etc., etc. |

Nice to see the pic and confirmation. Tempting to train for if there weren't so many other ships to train for.
I would have liked to fly the Morpheus, sort of the middle child between Hyperion and Thanatos, I s'pose. IIRC the Bateleur did not start out as a BS design, and I've never seen an image of the Abolition.

Sorry darling, but those are (from left to right) CCP Hedgehog and CCP Duckface.
More to the point, be it a T3 hull (not likely, hoping to be very, very wrong here) or a "simple" Battleship - I can't wait to see it float in space!

Good they are working on it. From what I understood the Tornado would be a new minmatar battleship introduced (with a nice storyline by dropbear & co I hope) and later on the other empires would react by building their own versions of the Tornado.
This would give the art team time to "catch up" and it would be a realistic approach. Although I fly Amarr only I do believe its a pretty ship. I am also curious about the Mentor and if that is going to be made. In fact I wouldn't mind that some empires had an extra battleship while others have extra cruisers or battlecruisers. It would shake things up.
PS the Oblivion looks nice ... (HINT HINT) - [img]http://go-dl1.eve-files.com/media/corp/janus/ceosig.jpg[/img] [yellow]English only please. Zymurgist[/yellow] |

The competition was just to get the hull model into the game, not necessarily in the form that the designer intended, so there's no guarantee that the Tornado will be a battleship (let alone one with 7 midslots and a web bonus as was put on the original contest entry).
Hopefully they'll use it and the other new hull designs to fill gaps, rather than adding more ships for the sake of more ships. |

Honestly, these do look nice. I forsee them being stupid popular for fleet battles considering they get the EWAR bonuses to all of them, minus the caldari one. Looks like it could be the new drake though. Hopefully these require you to have multiple skill sets to certain levels to even fly the ship. I'd hate to see people flying them who dont even have the skill-set to even remotely fly this thing close to right.
Start maxing out your EWAR-powers. Fleet fights about to get rough. |

More relevantly, I remember pouring over the fine print and I for one never saw a promise to make the hull pilotable by players at all. Let's hope it doesn't go that direction, but that's a loophole everyone seems to have forgotten in the past year. |

One of the primary values of NeX is the efficiency with which it uses art assets - that would be completely annihalated by the building of an entire new hull, skins...etc for a one off.
I would guess it will be a Thukker Faction ship using the pirate faction mould (Caldari/Minmatar) and that it will probably be available in the same way as the customs offices (though hopefully not at 20 billion per print). |

I think it would be really interesting to give in missles that follow ships into warp...plus a bunch of velocity bonuses, maybe give it a really high shield boost bouns so u dont need logi as much, rate of fire, kinetic damage, flight time. all are needed to actually make a missel BS actually affective. and the warp missels would nerf some problems missels have too...oh and use that cool runner up hull from the contest, aboslutely awsom. |

The *new* aware CCP is going to be tiptoeing around players feelings as much as possible. That means they're going to introduce the Tornado as a ship anyone can fly no limitations beyond Minmatar BS, Minmatar BS/X Faction BS, or T2 Minmatar BS skills.
The only problem is that they might introduce it as something overpowered. In fact I'm worried more about it being OP than unavailable. |

New ship that would be usable by people ? Surely you are joking good sir ...
I wish they would make old ships not be garbage and then give more new ships ... they can be genericly good. Dea god I just want more new models and looks and stuff <3
Diversity you know ? There are tons of cars with similar specs yet different looks in the world, do the same for eve ships ! |

I agree. There are some ships that simply look too awful. I have tried to fly Caldari ships before, but ALL cruisers are butt ugly... and those poor new players to the game, that get introduced to the Bantam at the get go...
Nothing wrong with swapping out a ship here and there with some better designs. Redesigning some more ships (the new Maller looks great) would be nice too.

though I'm not as pessimistic as the above posters who are already whining about what stats it will have, and if CCP will mess it up, shouldn't a ship with a name like "Tornado" at least look a little..."vortexy"?
personally I'd rather have custom paint jobs available for ships first.... like Tiger Stripe, or Digital camo, or Chrome, or hell bright yellow for all I care. with your corp/alliance emblems on them.. or just fix hybrids >.>

Extremely unlikely as CCP would hate to make life hard for themselves. By following the current trend, we will have Caldari ships similar in function to the Mimir/Freki, Adrestia/Utu and the Vangel malice (Minnie, Gallente, Amarr in order). |

Details were posted on Eve's facebook page.
Its NOT a battleship, they scaled it back to a Teir 3 battlecruiser. BUT, it fits battleship guns. The draw back is, less tank. |

A little sad it's not a battleship, but I see their point in a crowded field of battleship hulls and providing wider availability.
But the capability to fit battleship guns on a battlecruiser is quite interesting. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has toyed with the idea of rigging a small ship with really big guns. Now here's something built for the task. Should be pretty awesome, can't wait to see the stats. |

So, just to play the numbers for a moment.
The biggest drain from a large turret is powergrid. So a ship bonus is likely: 90% reduction in Large Projectile Turret module Powergrid usage. So following the Cyc to Cane progression, could expect a powergrid of somewhere around 1490. That would allow you to mount 8 800mm repeaters, with some skills, but not much else. Toss on a 10% Rate of Fire bonus, because Larges are slow as hell.
I would bet on an even slot layout, 8H/4M/4L, 8 turret/4 missile, to allow for armor or shield but not be greater than the other BC's at either. Adds to the glass cannon concept. Armor guys can aim for webbing and speed, shield guys can aim for tracking and damage. Might even bump the speed to 175 from the 165 standard, since the dev blog mentioned speed and distance tanking. A 4500 point even split on shield and armor would allow the pilot to go either way, but the 4 slots keeps it from out-tanking the Cyc or Cane.
Crunch all that out and it'd make one hell of a paper sniper. Thoughts? |

Well "sniper", what is sniper in your definition in the current game?
If they're intended to shoot "from" 70/80km warp to point, re do same stuff until no red on gridd I gess the good welp arty cane fleet will rip them with no fear, since their sign radius will be smaller but same/better tank=easier to rep.
Alpha strikes? -maybe but the counters will found quickly and without numbers all I can think about this ship is that he will quicly become hangar queen or for other purpose than gank in high sec.
I can hardly imagine goons changing their 1400 arty maels or welp canes for those, since they're intended to have less tank than those mentioned before, a single commando of 10 bombers would face **** them and smack them in local, but wait and see.
I'm really curious about those but not in hope I'll find them so "yeah this stuff rocks in tha house" like when I've docked my last Brutix for my first Cane |

Courtesy of Ivan En'Vec over on this thead. A SiSi dump of the Tornado stats. The full thread has all the suspected changes for the Winter expansion.
The important things: Large Projectile Turret CPU Need bonus Large Projectile Turret Power Need Bonus 8/5/4, 8 turrets/0 missiles -> I was pretty close with 8/4/4. No missiles though, which is fine.
No drones 535 m3 cargo bay -> bigger than the other two 6 Targets, 60K range 170m sig radius -> Much smaller than either of the others, which is good
225 m/s -> Much faster than I thought they'd give it.
Armor: 2272 Shield: 2165 -> Much lower HP than I guessed, and sort of nonsensical having 5 mids but lower shields. But the difference isn't huge.
Overall, pretty badass.
