The Thalia-class Logistics Frigate was developed by Roden Shipyards as a more mobile counterpart to their wildly successful Oneiros Logistics Cruiser. Able to keep pace with frigate and destroyer wings, the Thalia boasts excellent armor support capabilities in a compact and reasonably-priced form factor. In late YC117, news that the Federation Navy had placed a massive order for Thalia-class frigates brought Roden Shipyards stock to a seven year high.

Summary
The Thalia is the Tech 2 Gallente logistics frigate. Its logistics bonuses let it deliver significant armor-repairing power, and its signature radius reduction bonus helps its survivability.
The Amarr Deacon is generally more preferred, in part for its more balanced armor damage resistances, per-level armor hitpoint bonus, and larger number of low slots.
Skills
As a Tech 2 ship, the Thalia works best with strong support skills, and good fitting skills to squeeze the maximum possible performance from the hull. Capacitor support skills are particularly important, as sustaining the remote repairers takes a lot of energy, and armour tanking skills boost the ship's survivability.
Tactics
While the Thalia may not be well-regarded in its intended role, it has an extremely small signature radius with the Logistics Frigates skill trained, which can be further augmented using boosters and implants. This has led some groups to use Thalias fit with 10MN afterburners and light armor tanks as secondary tackle.
Notes
There are several figures in ancient Greek mythology called Thalia. The most likely candidate as the namesake of the ship might be the nymph Thalia, a minor deity of plant growth and green shoots, which might fit the Thalia's role.
