Now i cant decide what race to choose.
I wonder if Bay12 will be putting up Corp we could join and play together?
I understand you can use only race specific ships on Alpha?
Amarr ships are usually armor tanked and often use lasers (em/thermal damage), though there are some ships that use drones and/or missiles (drones and missiles get choice of damage type). Some of their ships get bonuses to tracking disruption (makes it more difficult for enemies to hit their target) and energy neutralization (go after their energy capacitor).
Caldari ships are usually shield tanked and use either missiles or hybrid guns (kinetic/thermal damage). Caldari have some ships bonused to target jamming (chance of breaking target lock).
Gallente ships are usually armor tanked (though one can sometimes get away with shield tanks on gal) and use either drones or hybrid guns. Gallente's EWAR specialty is sensor dampening, which can reduce a target's lock-on range and/or time it takes to lock on.
The Minmatar ship line has both shield and armor oriented ships and use either projectile guns (damage type selection) or missiles. Minmatar have some ships bonused to target painting, which makes it easier for ships to apply damage to smaller targets.
