I think I'm a bit off a cov-ops as yet, I need elecronics upgrades to lv 5, then covert ops skill to a decent level, the cloaking to 4 (or is it 5?) to use the really expensive cov-ops cloak. I may go for that after i level up my AF a bit more though.
Mainly because I'm looking at the same thing now. Having nearly finished my training for T2 mediums, and having recently flown that phoony that did fucking aweful damage, T2 1400s piped out with enough skills and damage mods are amazingly tempting. More so because of the CCP have designed for possible release for the minmatar tier 3 battleship (8 turret points!).
Both me and me is long way away from anything stealthy - other than bunging a proto cloak on an indy and waiting for the rats to *ahem* exploit me.
But be also a T2 indy pilot I'm am not so far from Caldari freighter. Would rather train fighty skills up first for a bit...but one freighter and 2 or 3 pilots? Can you fly Caldari, Fab?
