Close call between the '''Armageddon''' and the '''Abaddon'''. The Armageddon is less cap intensive and has a large drone bay, ~~while~~ the Abaddon has an armor resist bonus but is extremely cap hungry. The Abaddon has an extra mid slot, and better fitting attributes, ~~often making it~~ the ~~preferred choice~~.

Close call between the '''Armageddon''' and the '''Abaddon'''. The Armageddon is less cap intensive and has a large drone bay, along with a spare highslot which accepts a Remote Repair very well. The Armageddon is also very cheap, thus making it an excellent choice. However, the Abaddon has an armor resist bonus but is extremely cap hungry. The Abaddon has an extra mid slot, and better fitting attributes, justifying the extra cost involved.

The Maelstrom is not suitable for RR fleets due to its lack of low slots. The '''Tempest''' is decent and has an extra mid slot. The '''Typhoon''' is often preferred, with its better fitting attributes, and ability to fit torpedoes. Torpedoes have the advantage over autocannons of being able to apply more DPS up to 17 to 20 KM, depending on the pilot's skills. Furthermore, while the Tempest only has a 75m3 drone bay, and matching bandwidth, the Typhoon has 125 bandwidth and a whopping 175m3 bay, giving it more utility.

However, remember that the Tempest has instant damage application and a wider engagement range with T2 ammunition and greater speed, which makes it a bit better for situations where you are not shooting a hostile Battleship fleet.
