My take on the Amarr situation
[Background] I've flown Amarr since 08.2004 and have a specialised Amarr character. 10mill Sp in energy turrets and gunnery and not far from flying my capital ship. I'm also an outlaw and been PvP'ing exclusively for my isk for allmost a year and a half.
The Problems/Downsides To Amarr
#We are predictable, A lot of our ships have few midslots and no other options such as Missiles/Drones/EW.
#We do less damage to Omni Tanks.
#Our tech I ships generally only get 1 REAL bonus as i'm sure we all agree the cap cost of lasers which was supposedly introduced to stop other races using our guns is kinda silly nowadays, They dont want to use our lasers anyway 
#Our tanks are exactly on par with every other race, We DO NOT tank any better.
#A set of large Tech II ammunition for a Bs is the equivilant of carrying an uninsured tech I Bs in our cargohold.... Yay 
Amarr Strengths
#Mid Range Damage, Our considered by many "Best" weapon the Mega Pulse II can be highly effective from 15 - 50km. With impressive DPS within these ranges. Ok it's got nothing on a Megathron, But that mega cant hit you from 50km with blasters. And yes, we cant tackle from 50km, however... this IS a multiplayer game, Tacklers 4tw 
#Recons, The curse (And to a lesser extent Pilgrim) is the closest thing to a solo-pwnmobile your going to get. Able to take out most ships solo bar missiles spewing beasts. Which is ok by me considering our OTHER ships rip a shield tank to peices 
#NPC'ing for the solo player, My char has just made his way deep into 0.0 , He WONT return to a station or to empire for a good month as he's making some isk for a dread. No other races ships are capable of being self sufficient in 0.0 for any length of time.
#Gang Combat, 10 Armageddon VS 10 Whatever the hell you want... Assuming the geddons cant be forced to engage at their attackers range my moneys on the geddons every time. (And no I'm not on about gang combat of sitting at 220km+ shooting a primary.... Thats best left to the sheep)
#Targets, Despite what whiney fanbois allways moan about "everyone armor tanks!!11" I have to say their talking a lot of crap, Or they need to move regions. Ravens and scorps (and now drake's etc) are used all over the damn place! Including small gangs where their used in MASSIVE numbers despite the Caldari "we cant PvP" chants 
[CONCLUSION]
Seriously, shut the **** up ! There's nothing wrong with Amarr at all. We could prehaps use a bit more diversity in our ships, and Omni tanks could 'Prehaps' do with a little nerf. But our ships themselves are fine as they are !! (Cept maybe the Apoc... Is there any reason to fly it anymore ?)

Unless you can come up with a decent acronym for it, "F.U.B.A.R.E.D." doesn't make any sense.
If you can come up with one, more power to ya.

Mostly I agree with you. But, know what? We have to spec much more than other races to compete with them.

And Minmatar need to diversify more than other races in order to compete... /shrug
Every race has their strong points and weak points.

Edited by: TheEndofTheWorld on 28/12/2006 12:21:59 Armageddon is good.
Pilgrim/Curse/Arbitrator is good.
But... What about the rest?
Frigs -> Horrible
Cruisers/HACs -> Horrible... Zealot looks cool but that is about it.
Absolution -> EANM2 tanks make it

caldari in pvp tend to armor tank half of the time
also you're saying amarr pro's in consensual situations ''assuming you're not forced to engage at range'' these are the things that generally do happen =)
