    In order to proceed with Ops planning and start working on Logis we need to determine whether we will be running Armor or Shield based fleets both for PvP and PvE activities... so pls pick one you would prefer. While we may consider supporting both options, we will prioritize support based on this poll and it will be available for the next 12 days.

    Was a tough one for me, I have two characters for PvE/PvP whom are armour and shield tanks, so I would prefer both if possible. But I have cast my vote in the poll.

    i go with shield due to being a mainly Caldari pilot. as their ships are built on shield tanking rather than armor tanking in most cases..

    I'm going to suggest we focus on a Shield Tank fleet, as its the easiest option for newer players. It's also fairly universal across at least three of the four factions (Amarr love to armour tank), so it'd be the easiest option to implement with what we have at the moment.

    Nice, I have a character that can fly Basilisk and ok logistic skills. If shield options win I was thinking of training one more character so that he can fly Osprey but the more logi pilots we have the better. We'll be able to switch roles or even support larger fleet runs.

    I'm able to fly the Osprey with fairly decent Logi skills. I'm mediocre at best with Command skills on Frank.
