===Ship selection===

Starting from this section, I will include example for each step - so you can follow along.

That's the first step in making a fit - choose what you want to fly today :) ~~To keep things simple for you, and interesting for me I'll pick a ship I never fitted or flown before - [[Cyclone]].~~ Take a look at Wiki page, and read it - it's worth knowing what are exact stats of that ship.

That's the first step in making a fit - choose what you want to fly today :) Take a look at Wiki page, and read it - it's worth knowing what are exact stats of that ship. Important things to notice:

*Ship bonuses - ~~Cyclone has bonus to Missile RoF/Range~~ and ~~to Shield Boost amount, which answers two very important questions we will ask ourselves later :)~~

*Ship bonuses - that section usually tells you what is the purpose if the ship, what weapon you should use, and sometimes what tank works best on it

*HP amount - for Structure, Armor and Shield. If ship is not directly bonused to specific tank, HP amount is good indicator

*Slot layout - especially for [[High slot|High slots]] - ~~Cyclone has 7, with 5 Launcher hardpoints and 2 Turret hardpoints~~

*Slot layout - especially for [[High slot|High slots]] - how much space do we have

*Summary - sometimes very good info is written there, with hints regarding ship uses/fits

What do we know about it from Wiki?

*Bonuses to Heavy (Assault) Missiles - that will be our main weapon

*Bonuses to Shield Boost amount, and highest HP in Shield - that will be our tank

*7 High slots, with 5 launcher hardpoints and 2 turret hardpoints - we could use 5 launchers + 2 turrets, or 5 launchers + 2 utility highs - we'll see about that

*5 Medium slots - this will allow us to build decent tank, but not much space for utilities

*5 Low slots - very good news for shield tanked ship, as it allows us to fit DPS modules + some tank/engineering stuff
