The only person(s) who can give you the truth is CCP and their Devs.
I can however put my insight on it.
The Tech 2 Battleships will be derrived from highly researched tl1 Battleship original blueprints. Once researched, they will need more then just the basic minerals to build. Such as trade goods, more specific minerals, and a new mineral soon to hit our universe, Morphite.
With such ingredients, you might have yourself a tech 2 battleship.
Now, how would I know of such? I just put two and two together. Here, look at this tech 2 item:
Magpulse Thruster:
Propulsion Component used primarily in Caldari ships Components: Superconductors, Coolant and Morphite.
Morphite:
Morphite is a highly unorthodox mineral that can only be found in the hard-to-get Mercoxit ore. It is hard to use Morphite as a basic building material, but when it is joined with existing structures it can enhance the performance and durability manifold. This astounding quality makes this the material responsible for ushering in a new age in technology breakthroughs.
Mercoxit:
Mercoxit is a very unstable type of ore that is never found exposed in the open for long. It is only found buried deep inside basic asteroid rock and needs to be blasted free and mined quickly before it breaks down, using specialized mining techniques. Mercoxit is the only ore that yields the extraordinary Morphite mineral.
Edit: To mine mercoxit, you must have a Deep Core Mining Laser. :)
Now, with that said, I hope this helps.
Regarding the Imperial Class ships. Well, I can tell you that I suspect, that the Imperial Class Battleships (Apoc/Arma) will go to the champions of the Championship. Not just first place, but I'm thinking 2nd/3rd, which makes it understandable for 2 ships.
The finalists in the matter will however, receive a Imperial Class Frigate, which may sound cheap to you, but its going to help introduce more tech 2. You'll think "Hybrid Frigate" when you see it, but I don't even think its one of those. This ship, which I wont name, has also 2 versions. We'll see who gets what soon enough, eh?
Good luck to you.

Can we reasonably expect to see Tech 2 battleships any time soon? I thought ccp thought that there are too many tech 1 battleships.

nearly six months into the game and people still havent got a solid word on content that should have been in at release...to make matters worst in all likelyness they still have no idea how to introduce this content.
Think they are gonna pull out a clone of Auria to fix this problem? 
Great going guys...next thing you know there is gonna be an expansionset on the shelvs in stores that reads 'EVE:tech 2'. Disclosure: everything in is betaphase, the next 8 months we will make you pay to balance our crap and elliminate the bugs.
So i guess now its time to wait for tech 2 to bore another 5000 subscribers out of their minds. And lets not forget the new royd to slave away at. EVE online is like no other mmorpg ever before a gathering point of ebayers trying to make a living off playing videogames, all buying and selling eachothers stuff for hard currency.
I can already see the new tech 2 battleships on ebay for 500USD and up. I wonder what the IRS would have to say about all this ;)

It's time for Eris to get a clue. CCP should make a statement about this.
It's the exact same things as what Zombie did, you may not attack in "safe-areas" (empire/within sentry range) without loosing your ship.

hmm Maybe I phrased it badly. He said it's like no other on-line game and I was saying it's just like the others. They all have that aspect.

First off;
C'mon guys, lets not turn this into a flame discussion. Its for information. Keep your foolishness to yourself.
And in regards of this quote:
Gemini patch = Major bug fixes (such as this hotfix for 1248)
Castor patch = Tech 2 (which is being tested all around on Chaos as we speak, even the patch file names have Castor in them.)
Shiva patch = Tech 3
So you can probably expect to see alot more tech 2 ingame by the end of the month and so fourth..

There are no tech two battleships available clientside, trust me, I would know. :)
The only peculiar versions of battleships would be the Imperial Class Armageddon and Apocalypse.
This is it for tech2 battleships already being in.
I'm sure there are serverside or 'devside'.. but nothing clientside.
^ So that would mean only people able to access such things would be Devs/GMs/or BH's on Chaos Server, but even then the BH's would have to konw the ID# to spawn them. Which I frankly can't find.. so I doubt there is even that ;d

hey muad dib, can you post something about your encounter with hhi on the crime and punishment section... where it talks about fa. When me and a few other corp mates had met up with you, we were searching for someone. If you would post your experience meeting us. thanx
If you do not remember, I think one of my corpmates found your loot and it was good stuff, we just left it alone.

Just search.. use keywords like "frigate" and you'll come across the hybrid frigates..
We're renovating everything so in the new version you'll be able to find eveyrthing extremely EASY..

Well on the subject of thrusters, it's pretty easy to guess what the other races' ones are called. I guessed the Gallente one right, yay me ;)
The problem with searching for the rest is that most of the ship components' names are too generic and produce too many results. Things like power core give you a huge list.

Yes, and I apologize for this.. here, hope this helps some :)
Search for the following terms:
Thruster (Plasma, Ion, Fusion, Magpulse)
Sensor Cluster (Gravimetric, Magnetometric, Laser, and Radar)
Microprocessor (Nanomechanical, Nanoelectrical, Quantum, and Photon)
Armor Plate (Ceramite Composite, Rolled Mexalite, Trimorphite and Carbonite)
Reactor Unit (Fusion, Nuclear, Antimatter, and Graviton)
Capacitor Unit (Electrolytic, Scalar, Oscillator, and Tesseract)
Shield Emitter (Deflection, Pulse, Linear, and Sustained)
Rogue
Dronehive
Infested
Jove Ships (Wraith, Phantom, Specter, Visitant, and Eidolon)
Enigma
Search for "Frigate" and you'll come across some hybrids..
Hope that keeps you happy for a bit :P

skill required: Jove Frigate Level 5... methinks the Jovians went slightly overboard with their frigate design... :s

About the battleships i have heard that there will be blueprints to build tech level 2 bs and bps to upgrade existing tech level 1 bs.
And i have read somewhere in an interview that you can choose to upgrade your bs in 4 different ways with different stats.
just my 2 cents

Who gives a flying **** about Tech 2 Battleships? Is this what we should be worrying about ... if CCP is going to give us more Battleships?
Personally i wouldn't care less if they introduced tech 2 a year from now. If they focus on fixes to current ship ballance and combat issues and accompany that with a nice Faction war i'd be more than happy and i think this is the most important thing the game needs atm.

I was being serious. I know we are going to see some tech 2 very soon. I'm pretty sure we won't see all of tech 2 though. Plus I'm really not sure how you thought that was flaming but if anybody was offended sorry.

I'm not sure about this, but the advanced ships won't be a 100% sure deal when researched. Very small infact. Very very very small, especially given that you have to have agents head your research team, acquire research points, and wait for ccp to give out a set number and hope you have more research points than anyone else (Read in patch review on advanced bp distribution). As for the release of tech2, it is coming very shortly. The new 'Castor' patches are on chaos right now, they have done their code freeze for testing and whatnot, that started the 14th I believe, and AFAIK it is scheduled for the 24th atm.
