Summary
The Apocalypse (or "Apoc") is a Tech 1 Amarr battleship. It has bonuses to large energy turret optimal range and tracking speed. Together with the ability of energy turrets to switch crystals instantly, these bonuses make it perform well at different engagement ranges. Pulse laser Apocalypses with Tech 2 Scorch ammunition are able to deliver good damage at a decent distance. Apocalypses are also well suited to beam laser long-range fits.
The Apocalypse lacks the raw firepower or tank of the Abaddon, but with its better tracking it can fight well against signature-tanking cruisers that would normally be difficult for battleships to hit.

Notes
"Apocalypse" comes from an early Greek word meaning "revelation". This word begins the Book of Revelation in the New Testament, and so the Book of Revelation sometimes came to be called the "Apocalypse". Since Revelation describes the end of the world, the word "apocalypse" gradually developed its modern association with doom and final endings.
