This isn't a 'omg they must do this' thread.
That being said, I'd be _more_ excited at this point if they took the Hyperion, malestorm, and Abbadon back to the drawing board and made them racial Ewar ships.
Caldari have the Scorpion, so the Rokh is fine as it is.
For the others, something along the lines of....
The Hyperion could be a very fast, agile and light battleship with a damper bonus and a long range warp scrambler bonus. Maybe give it a role bonus to fit skirmish warfare modules. A ship that screws up sniping and catches ships that want to warp out once they start taking damage. Solo, it is really about your nav and damping skills keeping you alive while you deliver some 'ok' damage.
The Maelstorm could be a ship with a bonus to webber range and target painter effectiness. Give it a bunch of missile slots and give it a bonus to torpedo damage. Maybe give it a *huge* drone bay, but have a role 'bonus' of -80% to combat drone damage (Ewar and utility drones not affected). It would be unique, and thats as minmataar as you can get.
I dunno exactly what would be good for the Abaddon, but I'd think it would be drones, tracking disruptors and either NOS or maybe an Energy Neut bonus (like bonus to Energy Neut range and rate of fire? Would be kinda hot with the Amarr natural beefy cap stats). Would take some real work to keep it from being super Dominix 2.0 though.
Yea, I know they would just be battleship sized recon ships with some changes, but really, people LIKE recon ships.

I can't see CCP doing this.
But I can see them turning the Dominix (drone bonus and sensor dampener bonus), Typhoon (missile bonus and painter bonus) and Armageddon (cap use bonus and TD bonus) into EW ships at some stage in the future.

I wish they would rethink the Abaddon. But I don't have much hope of that happening.

I personally think the hyperion should become a sensor dampening bs, 8-7-4 slot layout with 5 turret hardpoints and 4 missile hardpoints, 5% large hybrid damage and 5% sensor damp effectiveness per level, it should have a limited grid but plenty cpu.
The maelstrom should become an armour tanking autocannon ship, 8-5-6 slot layout with 8 turret hardpoints and 5% large projectile damage and 7.5% armour rep amount per level.
The abaddon should become a big arbitrator but not so good that it outclasses the dominix, 8-6-5 slot layout with 5 turret hardpoints and 5 missile hardpoints, 10% laser cap reduction per level and 5% tracking disruptor effectiveness per level with a 200m3 drone bay.
