The mighty Armageddon class is one of the enduring warhorses of the Amarr Empire. Once a juggernaut that steamrolled its way into battle, it has now taken on a more stately and calculated approach, sending out a web of drones in its place while it drains the enemy from a distance.

Summary

The Armageddon (or "'Geddon") is a Tech 1 Amarr battleship with bonuses for drones and for the range of capacitor warfare modules.

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.

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.

Skills

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

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.

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.
