The Rokh.

It will always have a soft spot in my heart. It was my first ship (back when I wanted be a miner and a mining fit Rokh was actually surpisingly viable until I could skill into a barge - back before the days of injectors). Also a quite capable missioning ship, espcially for sniping (if you want to hit something in the next system over, accept no substitute!).

Sadly, like the rest of the tier 3 battleships (Rokh, Hyperion, Tempest and Abaddon) it has fallen somewhat behind all the new shinies (Trigs, Navy and Pirate faction battleships, etc.). I hold out hope that these fabulous beasties will one day get a remaster/revamp or T2 version (maybe a Command Battleship, or even a T2 Logistics Battleship) - something that gives them a niche so that a new generation can enjoy them (or at least better variants) again.

I think the best ship in Eve is the Loki…

Strategic Cruisers are basically an ‘All In One’ ship that can be quickly reconfigured for doing Combat, Exploration/Hacking and Covert Reconnaissance… While not bonused for it and certainly not a good use for it, Strategic Cruisers can also do a few other tasks if needed in a pinch, such as Transport and Mining… One of the best things about Strategic Cruisers is that Rigs can be changed / removed without being destroyed…

Another reason for picking the Loki is it’s the only Strategic Cruiser with a Defensive Subsystem that gives a bonus to both armor and shield tanking…

Course no need to mention the fact that I’m Minmatar… 😉

The Probe

I like design.  
It agile.  
Can do Fight.  
Can do Explore.  
Can do Salvage.  
Can do Mining.  
Can do Courier.

Jack-of-all-trade.

Technically the Jovian ships, I guess, as they require no skill. But my favorite is the Probe.

I have unfortunately been contacted and warned by this forum’s big honcho about some bad behavior of mine during my short stay here so I’m sorry to announce that this thread’s challenge and prizes will have to be cancelled.  
I wish everyone a nice end of year and good next year.  
Hasta la vista, baby.
