Myrmidon
Additional Information
The Myrmidon is a Gallentean drone boat, in the same field as the Vexor and Dominix. The Myrmidon comes with a bonus to drone damage output and hit points, as well as a bonus to armor repair amount. The Myrmidon has a good sized 150 meter drone bay. With 75 megabits of bandwidth of available, this ship can launch a potent wing of drones at enemy targets.
Although the Myrmidon has 6 turret slots, the ship does not have a damage bonus to any weapons system. It is not uncommon to find these ships equipped with anything from blasters to lasers. Despite this inherent flexibility, the Myrmidon is most effective when the fitting is focused on the ship's strengths. Recently, double and triple-rep fits have seen use in combination with combat boosters such as standard-strong Exile, further enhancing the ships potential.

Ship History
Before the introduction of drone bandwidth, the Myrmidon was equipped with a 125m3 drone bay. The only limiting factor for the maximum size of a drone flight was the capacity of the drone bay and the hard limit of 5 drones at once. As such, the Myrmidon could carry a full wing of heavy drones, and was the smallest Tech 1 ship able to do so.
Whilst not quite as capable as it once was, the Myrmidon remains a powerful ship, and one which should not be underestimated.
