== Summary ==
The '''Armageddon''' is one of the two battleship drone carriers, with a bonus to drone damage, drone hit points and energy neutralizer range. It has the 125mb bandwidth required to field a full flight of heavy or sentry drones (something not unique among T1 battleships) and a 375m<sup>3</sup> drone bay large enough to carry several flights of heavies, sentries, mediums and/or lights. With its 4 mid slots and 7 low slots the Armageddon is normally armor tanked. Opposed to the [[Dominix]], the Armageddon lacks bonuses to drone optimal range and tracking and is therefore not suited to a pure damage role.
+
The '''Armageddon''' (or "'Geddon") is a Tech 1 Amarr battleship with bonuses for drones and for the range of [[capacitor warfare]] modules. It is the final entry in the Amarr line of Ewar droneboats after the [[Dragoon]], [[Arbitrator]], and [[Prophecy]].
  
Like the [[Dragoon]] and [[Curse]], the Armageddon has bonuses to energy neutraliser ''range'' ('''not''' amount), allowing it to apply capacitor warfare to outwards of 30km with {{sk|Amarr Battleship|V}}.
+
The Armageddon's capacitor warfare bonuses increase the range but ''not'' the power of energy neutralizers, so for raw neutralizing power to drain really large capacitors the (more expensive) [[Bhaalgorn]] is often preferred. The Armageddon can, though, be a capable damage-dealing ship with additional and affordable neuting capability. Tech 2 heavy neutralizers on an Armageddon can have a range of 30 km, roughly corresponding to very costly [[Faction modules#Deadspace|deadspace]] heavy neuts mounted on an unbonused hull.
  
==Skills==
+
With bonused drones and long-range heavy neuts, the Armageddon can be more dangerous than most battleships to small and medium-sized targets. It also has the bandwidth to control a full flight of five heavy or sentry drones, offering strong DPS against large targets. Compared to the other notable Tech 1 drone battleship, the [[Dominix]], the Armageddon has the same bandwidth and drone bay sizes, but lacks the Dominix's additional bonus to drone tracking and range which helps to apply its damage and to snipe with sentries.
''Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot Armageddon for a specific or its common role(s) can be written here.''
 
  
==Fitting==
+
== Skills ==
For more info on fittings, please go [[Armageddon/Fittings|here]]
+
The Armageddon benefits even more than most Amarr battleships from strong capacitor [[support skills]]. Good drone skills are obviously important to its damage potential.
  
==Tactics==
+
== Tactics ==
''No sub-article about Armageddon roles or piloting tactics. You can write them here.''
 
  
==Notes==
+
The Armageddon has five launcher and turret hardpoints and seven high slots in total. Often it is fitted with five Rapid Heavy Missile Launchers (RHMLs) and two heavy neutralizers. RHMLs don’t require capacitor and take up relatively little powergrid and CPU, making it easier to make the overall fit work.
In comparison to the other T1 battleship commonly used for neuting, the [[Dominix]], the Armageddon gets a 50% range bonus to neuts but loses the drone range and tracking bonuses. A neuting Armaggedon will therefore not be as efficient at applying its DPS, and will has more difficulty killing small stuff. This is balanced by the higher number of high slots and increased powergrid which makes it possible to easily field 4, 5 6 or even 7 neuts, which combined with gives the Armageddon the longest range of T1 neuting battleships. The [[Abaddon]] is also a popular choice for neuting. While it is not range bonused, its additional high gives it more neuting power which can be more important (particularly against a [[Capital Ship]] where range is often not an issue due to enemy's lack of mobility). The Abaddon also receives a tanking bonus helping survivability.
 
  
The Armageddon gets 4 mid slots, compared to the Dominix 5, which means that difficult choices must be made. A prop mod and a heavy capacitor booster will almost always be used. It is very useful for at least one member of your fleet to fit a ship scanner so that you can view your enemy's cap level. If you wish to fulfill a DPS role then an omnidirectional tracking link is also recommended to improve the tracking of your sentry drones (which is normally quite low). Other popular midslot modules include remote ECCM (normally placed onto a friendly logi), or a 2nd cap booster (which can allow you to operate without a permanent incoming ET from a [[Guardian]] or [[Basilisk]]).
+
== Notes ==
 +
Although in present-day English "armageddon" has come to be used for any grand, apocalyptic, annihilating event, the word comes from the Hebrew place-name given in the Greek text of Revelation 16:16 for a place where armies will assemble for a battle at the world's end. Interpreters differ on whether the verse refers to a real place or is using a metaphor.

Summary

The Armageddon (or "'Geddon") is a Tech 1 Amarr battleship with bonuses for drones and for the range of capacitor warfare modules. It is the final entry in the Amarr line of Ewar droneboats after the Dragoon, Arbitrator, and Prophecy.

The Armageddon's capacitor warfare bonuses increase the range but not the power of energy neutralizers, so for raw neutralizing power to drain really large capacitors the (more expensive) Bhaalgorn is often preferred. The Armageddon can, though, be a capable damage-dealing ship with additional and affordable neuting capability. Tech 2 heavy neutralizers on an Armageddon can have a range of 30 km, roughly corresponding to very costly deadspace heavy neuts mounted on an unbonused hull.

It also has the bandwidth to control a full flight of five heavy or sentry drones, offering strong DPS against large targets. Compared to the other notable Tech 1 drone battleship, the Dominix, the Armageddon has the same bandwidth and drone bay sizes, but lacks the Dominix's additional bonus to drone tracking and range which helps to apply its damage and to snipe with sentries.
