The Gallente Federation encompasses several races, the Gallenteans the largest by far. The Federation is democratic and very liberal in a world full of dictators and oligarchies. The Caldari State was once part of the Federation, but a severe dispute resulted in their departure and a long war between the Gallente Federation and the Caldari State. The Gallenteans are the masters of pleasure and entertainment and their rich trade empire has given the world many of its most glorious and extravagant sights.
Avec le gaarleek et du van, les fransaize will ruuule ze yuniverse!
Vive la difference!
Seriously, though, we French are zee nutz. Heavy on drones and hybrid guns (Rails ans blasters) and light on missiles and known to be tough to fit without the requisite skills, the Gallente often consider themselves to be playing EVE on "hard" compared to Minnie and (especially) Caldari (missile spamming couch taters) but put the effort in and these most beautifully crafted ships will serve you well.

Lows: 1xMAPC, 1xSmall Rep
Maulus
Tristan
The Tristan is a fun little frig that looks like a tick.
It is a tough little bugger though, and can fit some launchy things.
Of note on launchy things, you need skills for the launcher, and the ammo, kinda depressing when you want to fly the thing, you finally get the launchers on it, and find you can't load the ammo. But fun for a change of pace.
Did I mention it reminds me of a tick?
Interceptors
Ares
poot zomesing eer
Taranis
Author: Lee
Use: Small gang / Solo PvP
Notes: This setup seems like one of the best around for the taranis, does around 170dps and the neutrons plus null ammo give you decent enough range for fighting other inties when your range varies alot. The damage control makes full use of your large structure hp effectively doubling it. You can swap the dc for a mag stab if you really want to but it only adds about 15dps.
The fit:
High: 3x Light neutron IIs with null ammo
Mid: 1mn MWD, Stasis Web, 7.5km Warp Scrambler
Low: Small rep II, damage control, micro aux power core
Dronebay: 2x hobgoblin II
Author: Bomber
Use: Small gang / Fleet PvP
Notes: This setup will get you to 6k mps without implants. Drop in price of T2 mods since invention makes it much more affordable too. If you don't need the DPS (fleet) consider dropping the blasters for 1 or 2 x small neut (depending on what grid you have left) and 2x small nos
The fit:
High: 3x Light electron IIs with null ammo
Mid: T2 1mn MWD, X5 Stasis Web, 7.5km Warp Scrambler
Low: 3x T2 overdrives
Dronebay: something logistic
Assault Frigates
Enyo
Author: Bomber
Role: Small gang PvP
Notes: I have not yet tested this in PvP, but it pisses all over L2 missions (as it should) and hits consistently well from 2k up to 45k once you have the requisite ammo loaded. Missile launcher is there for want of something better, tbh, especially as my missile skills are teh lose. I think if you train the missile range skills up enough, you could get a T2 Rocket launcher hitting at 10k, which would complement the 125s nicely. The fit calls out an AB, but MWD should fit. That said, I haven't tested the effect on cap but I expect it would not be good
The Fit:
His: 4x 125mm rails 1x missile launcher
Mids: ABII 20k scram
Lows: dmg ctrl, energ expl, Cap charger, SARII
Ishkur
poot zomesing eer

Catalyst
poot zomesing eer
Interdictors
Eris
Cruisers
Celestis
Author; Bomber
Use; Fleet support
Notes; Celestis gets a bonus to sensor dampening, so that's what this fit is for. It is a fleet role with a heavy passive tank. This will give you an extra cycle on the dampeners when you get called primary, but whatever tank you fit; once you get called primary, you are leaving in a pod so concentrate on staying in the fight and dealing damage or denial as long as you can. I was using a fit with MAR and 800mm plate instead but found that I couldn't run the MAR long enough to make a difference once I started taking damage anyway.
The fit;
HIS; 3x light neut blasters, Heavy launcher
MIDS; web/scram and 3 x Sensor Dampeners. Swap web or scramfor Sens boost if you want
LOWS; dmg ctrl, Cap relay, 1600mm plate
Exequror
Guardian-Vexor
Thorax
Author; Bomber (although credit to BD, it's his fit)
Use; small gang / Solo PvP
Notes; I am teh shit at PvP so don't come crying to me when you get blown up, mkay?. This fit, however, comes from the self declared legend Butter Dog and while his ego may be bigger than the Titan he aspires to, he does seem to know a thing or 2 about ship fitting. The one downer about this fit is it is pricey (about 11M loss after insurance, depending on the dmg ctrl and EANM you choose) so don't fly it unless you can afford to lose it.
The fit;
High: 5 Light Neutron Blaster II's with Void ammo
Mid: 10mn MWD, Stasis Web, Warp Scrambler
Low: 1600mm Tungsten Plate, Armor Exp Hard, EANM, Dmg Cntrl, MAR
Dronebay: 5 Valkerie
Author: Lee
Use: Small gang / Solo PvP
Notes: I think its sacrilege fitting light neutrons on a thorax, waste of a bonus :P I prefer this, I fought a thorax with a similar setup to bombers once in it and almost had him until his friend in a jaguar warped in and jammed me pre-revelations.
The fit:
High: 5x Heavy electron blaster IIs with antimatter
Mid: 10mn MWD, Stasis Web, 20km Warp Scrambler
Low: Med rep II, damage control, energized adaptive nano membrane, 800mm plate, mag stab.
Dronebay: 5x hammerheads
Vexor
The Vexor is notably the first in the "Drone Boat" line. It's 75 m3 drone bay allows for a nice mix of 5 medium and 5 light drones, (or 3 heavies, should you be so inclined). It's capabilities are really based upon your skills. If you have decent drone skills, you can easily rat in low sec in a Vexor, without having to risk an overly expensive ship. I fit my ratting boat with looting gear, some weapon just to aggro the rats, cap recharge, an AB, a bit of tank, and a repper. (Sorry, writing this after hours at work, but can't look at Eve-O to look at how many slots a Vex has to suggest a complete fit). If you should have a drone damaged, I'd also suggest a Armor repper drone to heal them. A small takes only 5m3 of the drone bay, and it saves you flying back for more drones. I used to rat with this until my hold was full, fly to a Giant Secure Containe in a SafeSpot, rinse, and repeat. Then when I had enough cans full, I'd just fly in with an Iteron to pick them up. If you rat in a system with enough belts, you'll add up a supply of loot fairly fast.
One of the biggest tips for ratting like this, is knowing your drone control range. If you fly away from your target quickly enough, and orbit outside their range, they can't hit you, while your drones CAN hit them. Of course, if your drone control range is short, you can fit a Drone Control Augmentor, (hi slot antennae for drones) that increases your range until your skills grow in proper.
A Vexor could be fitted for small-scale pvp, but I'll test that out before I put a fit on here!

Heavy Assault Ships
Deimos
Ishtar
Recon Ships
Arazu
Author: eRabbit
Use:
Notes: Can lock frigs before they warp, scramble from 43km away with Recons 4 and can make any ship not see past their own nose It needs Recons 4 to fit because of the CPU usage of the cloak, but you should have Recons 4 before using an Arazu anyway, otherwise you've got a gimped fitting and can't scramble as far as you should.
The Fit:
High: 3x 200mm II Rails, 1x Cov Ops Cloak
Mid: 1x Sensor Booster II, 2x Warp Disruptor II, 3x Remote Sensor Dampener II
Low: 1x Medium Armour Reparier II, 1x Explosive Hardener II, 1x Damage Control II, 1x Best Named Capacitor Power Relay
Rig: Sensor Resolution
Lachesis
Logistics
Oneiros
Battlecruiser
Brutix
Myrmidon
Author: Lee
Use: Small gang / Solo PvP
Notes: This setup covers almost every base although the dps isn't amazing when you're used to flying blaster ships. It does 360dps, has a great tank, heavy drones for big targets, light for small and it has nos to help kill their tank.
The fit:
High: 4x Electron blaster IIs with antimatter, 2x heavy nos
Mid: 10mn MWD, Stasis Web, 20km Warp Scrambler, med cap booster with 800s, sensor booster
Low: 2x Medium armor rep II, damage control, exp, kin, therm active hardeners
Dronebay: 4x ogres, 5x hobgoblins
Rigs: 3x auxiliary nano pump (these make your armour reppers work as well as a T2 large repper if you can afford them/when they get cheap)
Command Ships
Astarte
Eos
Battleships
Dominix
Author; Bomber
Use; Ratting 0.0
Notes; This will tank pretty much any belt spawn so long as you have good cap skills and named cap chargers in the mids. I ran with 3x FB-10 and 2x Eutectics. I rekon you could drop one for an AB or drone mod if you use (ie can afford) T2 cap chargers. Carry a range of ammo for the guns to suit range (Lead will give you about 30km opt) but the majority of your damage output will come from your drones.
The Fit;
HIS; 4x 250mm dual rails, 1xTractor beam, 1x Salvager
MIDS; 5x Cap charger mods
LOWS; 1x LARII, 6x hardeners matched to the damage type you're ratting.
Drones; T2 Meds matched to the damage type you're ratting, T2 heavies if you have the skills
Author; Dres
Use; Level 4 missions
Notes; This is a setup I've used for quite a few missions and reflects some advice from Eve-O
The Fit;
HIS; 1x Medium raill(whichever flavor), 2xTractor beam, 2x Salvager 1x drone link augmentor (for drone control distance)
MIDS; 4x Cap charger II's (if you've the skills, they're very cheap nowadays) and either an Omnidirectional Tracking Link, or Drone Navigation whatzit for more speed. Depends on if the mission will have more large ships, or medium/smalls. If more medium/small, you'll be using T2 mediums more, if more large, you'll be using more sentries. Use the Omnidirectional tracking link for sentries, navigation for mediums.
LOWS; 1x LARII, and one of the following--> (2 each active hardeners [II's if you can afford] of the two types of damage you're expecting from the mission, an Energized Adaptive Nanofiber Membrane II, and a Damage Control II) OR (1 each active hardeners [II's if you can afford] of the two types of damage you're expecting from the mission, an Energized Adaptive Nanofiber Membrane II, and a Damage Control II and two 1600mm plates (usually whatever you've looted, but some flavors have bonuses like less mass, others have more armor) The first fit is for more resistance, the second is for the missions that auto-aggro and buys you time to get aligned and draw out the enemy force. If you can't damage them enough that you can tank it, you'll be able to spread your enemy out enough so that when you return, their initial damage per second will be reduced while you take more of them out. If you fly into an area of the mission that you're not auto-aggro'd by everyone, fly away from a couple of the blobs and only aggro one at a time and use the setup with just hardeners, no plates. You'll be more agile and able to maneuver.
Drones; T2 Meds matched to the damage type you're ratting, T2 heavies if you have the skills, regular if not, and sentries to match the damage you need as well. I also include a large or medium armor repper drone in case my drones take a little damage. The Domi drone bay can carry it all!
Rigs;Capacitor recharge rigs are nice to open up some of the medium slots on your fit. Right now I have one cap recharge rig, and my cap never falls below 50% while running my tank. A couple more and you could probably add an AB or fit both the Omnidirectional Tracking and Drone Navigation.
My method is roughly comparable to one that was shown me on Eve-O, and the sentry portion was learned from Akiakiu. Primarily, when I fly into a mission, I target the group closest to me, and fly away to the edge of my range. (stock normal Domi is 70k) I then fire on them one shot w/ my rail, just to get aggro. Once that group has full aggro'd I wait to see what they react with. If the drones are coming fastest, I attack them first, as they're most likely to web/ warp scramble me and make escape impossible. How I go about it depends on how fast they're closing, and the number of them. If it's less than 20, and they're not on top of me in less than a minute, I stop and toss out the sentries. Sentry drones concentrated on approaching frigs insta-pop them. The first few times I did this I thought I lost lock on them until I noticed the wrecks on the overview. I work up the ladder, taking out frigs, then cruisers/battlecruisers, with BS's last. The reason I do it like this is whittling down their fleet the fastest possible. Every ship still alive is doing you damage. Reducing that number reduces their damage. Some people prefer the opposite, taking out the large damage BS's first, but with the drones you don't have amazing Damage per second, but you do have flexibility. Once any small ships are within 10k or so, pull in the sentries and launch the mediums. Once I have moving drones in place, I can decide whether I want to start looting, or moving away from the blob, depends on it's size and how well I'm tanking. While moving away from the blob, try to fly in a straight line, as you'll find cleaning up loot easier as you fly back toward the next group to aggro them. Depending on where you're missioning, you may get more medium ammo for your rail, so you might not need to carry any ammo on your mission at all. Try to keep all the valuable loot, and watch out for metal scraps, they come with the salvage, and take up alot of your hold. I end up melting most of my loot to make stuff, but some nice named items show up, so don't melt indiscriminately!
For multiple room missions, it's a good idea to drop the salvagers and tractors for the best range rails you can fit, and all the ammo you can carry. Otherwise you'll keep having to dump goodies that you could otherwise keep. Watch your time though, and take breaks every hour to clean up wrecks lest you lose them! (fly back to nearest station, refit for looting (3 ea salvage/tractor, and AB, and a cargo expander or 7 makes it pretty good at carrying ALOT of loot, even the scrap metal which does melt down)).
Hyperion
Author: Lee
Use: Small gang / Solo PvP
Notes: The megathron works best in gank mode, the hyperion on the other hand works best in tank mode. With armour rep amount rigs and bs lvl 4 you have the equivalent of 4 large armour reps. The DPS isnt as good as the neutronthron but you're still putting out a nice 6-700dps.
The fit:
High: 8x Ion blaster cannon IIs with null/void
Mid: 100mn MWD, Stasis Web, 20km Warp Scrambler, 2x med cap boosters with 800s
Low: 2x Large armor rep IIs, damage control II, 2x energized adaptive nano membrane IIs, mag stab
Dronebay: 7x hammerheads, 6x hobgoblins
Rigs: 3x auxiliary nano pump
Megathron
Author: Bomber
Use: Fleet long range damage dealer
Notes: The focus here is on range and DPS. For fleet sniping you'll need a range of at least 150km. No tank as you should be aligned and up to speed while engaging, ready to warp out the minute you see red flashies. This is another fit from BD, but this time modified to help warp out. This is an expensive fit, espectally if you go with best named or T2 guns. Make sure you have 100m spare to cover the loss when that happens
The Fit:
Highs: 7 x 425mm rails (T2 if you can fit them, best named you can afford if you can't), Neutralizer - This will flatten any tacklers that venture near
Mids: 3 x Sensor Booster II, 1 x Tracking Computer II
Lows: 2 x Tracking Enhancer II, 3 x Magnetic Field Stabaliser II, 2 x i-stab
Drones: 5 x warrior IIs
Author: Lee
Use: Small gang / Solo PvP
Notes: This is the ultimate neutronthron setup. The plates mean that you dont need to rep as much and so dont go through as many cap boosters, they do reduce your speed a bit but its nothing huge, a good point is that you're less succeptible to webbers on the last 10km of the journey to your target. It does around 1000dps with T2 blasters and void, enough to kill most battleships before they even get you to armour :D
The Fit:
Highs: 7x Neutron blaster cannon IIs with null/void
Mids: 100mn MWD, Stasis Web, 20km Warp Scrambler, heavy cap booster with 800s
Lows: Medium armour rep II, damage control II, energized adaptive nano membrane II, 2x 1600mm rolled tungsten plates, 2x mag stabs
Drones: 4x ogres, 5x hobgoblins
Rigs: anti-explosive pump, 2x trimark armour pumps (you'll end up with 24k hp with the plates + rigs)
Author: BUM
Use: Close Range
The Fit:
Highs: 7 x Ion Cannons with Null (has to be T2 guns/ammo for the range)
Mids: MWD - scram - web - injector (can drop scram and web in gangs, adding SB II's)
Lows: LAR II - 1600 plate - 2 x EANM II - 1 x IFFA - 2 x Mag Stab II
Drones: 5 X Ogres/Berserkers OR 4 + 5 Warrior II's if in a gang without anti-tacklers
