People have talked before about which you would choose if you had to fly skips of one race and one race only, but those discussions often devolve into an argument about which is best in the current meta etc.
Instead, imagine that you are forced to extract all spaceship command skills (from frigate on up) for one of the four main races. You have to do this across all characters and all accounts, and are forever banned from having or acquiring these skills on any character you now control or come to control in the future.
Which race do you forsake and why? |

I assume you mean extract all the skills EXCEPT for one race. Most of my characters are Gallente, so it would be the least effort to go in that way. That, and I like drones. Edit: But it would be weird to have my Caldari, Amarr, and Matari pilots forced into Gallente ships. Also, CCP would not do this, as they like the idea of players being able to make decisions, learn, then make new ones.

No, I explicitly mean extract all the skills for ONE race and be forever barred from flying those ships.

Id sooner not play frankly. Too many pirate ships require two and now with CCPs rebalance and tiericide there is a good smattering of ships in all races. CCP has shied away from the flavor of the month races more and more and into specific ships or classes within races as good alternatives enough that now picking one "subhuman" race isnt something Id do.
And that is credit to CCPs balancing atm.
Have you heard anything I've said?
You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?
That's right.

I haven-¦t really played around enough with different ships but my spontaneous response would be Caldari. Since I'm Minmatar and love their ship designs and want to be able to fly SoE ships in the future Caldari ship skills are the only ones I could live without.
Would still be pretty ****** to miss out on some Pirate ships though. |

Ignoring the parts relating to pirate ships...
My answer would be Caldari. I really dislike using missiles. Their turret use is is weaksauce. Their only redeeming quality is the EWAR. And to be frank, if I had to sacrifice one EWAR, it'd be ECM. I've used it successfully, but by far it is the most nitpicky ewar of the bunch.
Let's discuss overhauling the way we get intel in EvE.

For some reason me and alts never fly amarrian ships. Having skills up to T2 lasers though....

Based on appearance: Gallente (Honestly, sober up before designing ships) Based on function: Caldari (They may be the best missile boats but the other races have better overall functionality) |

Caldari.
Don't even have to think about that. I'm a pure-blood Gallentean and hate 'em with a passion on every level. I actually wouldn't even have to extract anything, because I simply do not have any Caldari skills.
When you don't know the difference between there, their, and they're, you come across as being so uneducated that your viewpoint can be safely dismissed. The literate is unlikely to learn much from the illiterate.

edit- totally misread the question.
I would drop Minmatar. Reguardless of meta. If I had to drop 3 races, I would drop everything but Amarr. Because I started playing Amarr when they were the worst of the meta races.
My choice of pronouns is based on your avatar. Even if I know what is behind the avatar.

Minmatar, easily. The ships themselves look like pieces of scrapheap loosely welded together, stick a pair of wheels on them and you have the foundation for a Mad Max game.

Gallente. Because their designs are horrible, drones are OP, and everybody else is giving me all this nice Caldari SP for free.

Missles have their challenges. I've only seriously played three races. Minmitar have no real attraction for me. They're kind of tribal and brutal from a 'perspective' with little elegance. Their ships seem to follow suit but can't comment on how they actually play because I haven't fought a Minnie against anything else yet.
So, jury is out, but by personal attraction to story and general leaning, I'd vote the Minnie's off the island.

If I was forced at gun point to choose, I would drop Minmatar and cry. :p
I would drop Amarr without a second thought, but Curse being Amarr means that I cannot drop Amarr. I know lots of people find Curse meh these days, but I've always loved it. I fly Gallente and Caldari a lot, but if I had to fly just one single ship for PVP, I would pick Curse (for solo).
Toobo is a lucky talisman - use Toobo's referral for IWI and you too can be lucky. ;)

Which race do you forsake and why? easy gallente!
cause i love amarr lasers(no ammo. so cargo efficient even with t2 crystals, and if they break load the t1) and i'm a fan of shields(less stressful to me), so Caldari are sometimes fun(sometimes.....rokh failed me....abaddon and maelstrom look at it in dissapointment)
and hurricane is #1 best looking ship.
while gallente are ugly(my opinion) and both my character's faction(Amarr) and my chosen faction(Caldari) hate gallente so
death to the gallente dogs! quartermaster get my sword! i gonna engage them in melee!!!! |

Probably Caldari due to the Pirate Faction crossover I would need Minmatar and Gallente for a lot of PF ships i like. Nothing against Caldari, but if I had to choose there are some ships I just love and couldn't bear to give up.
Amarr would be the last to go since I rolled this character as an Amarr loyalist and I love flying Amarr ships and Amarr lasers. |
