Summary
On the same skill path as the Cyclone, the Maelstrom has a powerful active shield tank. Unlike the Cyclone it can also deal lots of damage. It is the only minmatar battleship that can use all of its weapon slots for the same weapon.
The Maelstrom is the usual choice for minmatar pilots running Level 4 missions, which it does quite well (Ships like the Vargur and Machariel outperform it, but cost much more, both in ISK and in skill training time). PvE Maelstroms usually fit an X-large shield booster for a powerful pulsed shield tank, and artillery for long-range DPS -- though against the Angel Cartel, whose battleships like to engage at close range, some pilots like to fit large autocannon instead.
In PvP the Maelstrom is the backbone of the "alpha fleet" - fleets designed to one-shot ships to negate the power of logistics, and are very popular in large null sec alliances because of this.
Skills

- Cap skills (the first 3 recommended skills) are effectively mandatory. Booster must be 'pulsed' (used briefly when needed).
- When fighting Angels it is highly recommended to swap the guns for 800mm ACs to better manage their close-range combat.
- T2 guns (Arties or ACs) will fit with a 1%-3% CPU implant or by using at least one Faction Gyro.
- Variants: Replace the Cap Recharger with a Cap Booster, a SeBo, or a 3rd Hardner. Drop the DC2 for another Gyro.
- Other rigs to consider are the Large Core Defence Capacitor Safeguard and the Large Semiconductor Memory Cell.
- As always, hardners, ammo and drones should be selected to match the rats' damage and weaknesses.
