hmmmm as i see it everyone in the game thinks bs are the only way to go. asfar as corprate fighting is concerned...i was wondering what the pirates think about cruisers... they are cheaper and faster but dont have the power or protection of the bs.. is it smarter to get in close with a ewar and gunship cruiser working togheter or just go at it with battleships.. what are your thoughts on the subject?

I was thinking the same thing today!
Cruisers are suffering from the middle-child syndrome.
Big but not big enough.
Small but not small enough.
Frigates have the advantage of being very hard to hit for a battleship using large weapons.
Other than blackbirds, I can't think of any other cruiser likely to be found in a battle.
There's plenty of frigates though - Vigil, Griffin, and Kestrels have all been used in battles.

A battleship is an overgrown cruiser without missiles V and drones V skill.
Keep on flaming, lamers.

apoc gets love after patch and when shield hardners get some nurff love amarr might be worth the points.

I read that the apoc gets a slot more... is it a low slot or mid slot ?

Not at all - get ya skills up and a tracking pc and boom.
Frigates are destroyed in a single shot - sometimes 2 - by tachyons at 1km-3km range

Low, of course. The apoc doesn't need more overpowering.

I played around with a tempest yesterday on chaos and made every amarr ship run in fear once the torpedos started hitting. Their lasers didnt give a lot of damage as I had the usual hardeners and they ran out of cap very very fast. In fact, none of the apocs even got my shields down.
Using missiles and projectiles are like having 100% cap for defence and still delivering heavy damage of the type you desire. Its absolutely lethal. I have yet to find a amarr pilot that can take a minmatar ship on chaos, but Im sure they must exist...

I didnt say anything about your drone and missle level..and you must try to remember what you said a hour ago so you can stop repeating yourself with everypost
its sad to see someone build their day on annoying people and yet fail so pitifully

Well we have been taking on Battleships with our little crew of Cruiser Pilots for quite some time now and I would say that we have been very succesful so far. Losses are easily replaced since we don't have to replace a 50-100M ship every time we loose a vessel.
This being said, fighting with Cruisers only fleets these days demands a very good coordination, some nerves and the will to take on good challenges. Which incidentally is what we enjoy doing.
Sure when you see a Battleship pilot turn on all his 4 hardeners and logoff for 30 minutes.. and do that two times in a row and then evemail-spam you with stuff like "you can't even take down my shields" well... you wonder why he's playing at all and why you have to interact with these "players". But I am starting to go off-topic now.. bear with me
