======Paladin======
=====Overview=====

Geared toward versatility and prolonged deployment in hostile environments, Marauders represent the cutting edge in today’s warship technology. While being thick-skinned, hard-hitting monsters on their own, they are also able to use Bastion technology. Similar in effect to capital reconfiguration technology, when activated the Bastion module provides immunity to electronic warfare and the ability to withstand enormous amounts of punishment, at the cost of being stationary.

Developer: Carthum Conglomerate 

Carthum ships are the very embodiment of the Amarrian warfare philosophy. Possessing sturdy armor and advanced weapon systems, they provide a nice mix of offense and defense.

The Paladin is a great PVE ship in the right circumstances.

This is the fit you want to run when doing missions in Amarr space, and it plows through any Blood or Sansha L4 mission like knife through hot butter, and does quite well vs. Mercenaries and Drones as well.

The faction armor repairer is needed due to the somewhat limited powergrid, but for the rest, T2 works just fine. Other than that, upgrading the Heat Sinks and Stasis Webifier to faction variants is a relatively cheap way to make things go quite a bit more smoothly. Hardeners based on Rat type.
