Plans

Decisions has been made: I will fly two ships: an Interceptor and an Assault Frigate.
The Interceptor is quite obvious: Taranis. It has a measurable punch, cheap and looks cool.

The AF part is a bit more complicated. I have three options:

The Jaguar

Pros:

• I have Autocannon Specialization.
• Damage type can be chosen.
• In shield config it is not too complicated ship, I have to choose the right ammo and good range then push the trigger.
• I know Minmatar frigates 5.

Cons:

• I don't have shield skills. And I don't want to have them.
• There is an armor build for this ship but in this case I have to find something useful to the extra mid slot. Something EWAR, and this makes things more complicated.
• Misses the tracking bonus Rifter has.

The Ishkur

Pros:

• Armor tank.
• Damage type change by drones.
• I know Gallente frigates 5.

Cons:

• Drones can be killed.
• Damage type change by drones... Before leaving the station.
• Have to train Drone-related skills.
• Operating drones and the ship parallel is hard to master.
• Blasters or rails?

The Vengeance

Pros:

• Armor tank. But what an armor tank!
• Rockets. Damage type can be chosen.
• Rockets. It would hit.
• Rockets. Needed for stealth bombers.
• Perfect slot layout.
• With armor resist plates not so slow.
• Great bonuses for Frigates and for AFs.

Cons:

• I have to learn Amarr frigates to 5.
• I have to learn Rocket skills.
• Slower than Jaguar.

I have decided: it will be the Vengeance.

At first place it means I have to sell my Ishkurs and some of the drones. A few is still needed for the Taranises.

After that I have to start learning skills by concentrating my two goals: Taranis and Vengeance. It won't work in parallel. I will start with Taranis skills and(!) support skills. One week for the 'ranis, one week for the supports. As I calculated I will be able to effectively fly a Taranis in 1-1.5 months. After that I can change to Vengeance and I would be able to fly a Vengeance in December.

What will I do meantime? This 1-1.5 months will be done by Rifters and Incursuses. I have a great stockpile of those ships. Rifter is for fun, Insursus is for learning the tactics will be used by Taranis.

My learning queue has been planned. I have to concentrate one thing: not to leave this path.

But what about Malediction...?
