Gallente Cruisers follow the same design principles as their Frigates, a good balance of slots, drone bays, heavy armour and a prediliction for blasters.

Celestis - The Celestis follows the same design principle as the Maulus frigate in form of its bonuses (sensor dampeners and medium hybrid turret damage). However, unlike the frigate this cruiser has a much larger drone bay, a massive 40m3; combined with a slot layout of 4,5,3 and a balance of 3 turret mounts and 2 missle mounts. Finally, with a skill requirement of Gallente Cruiser II its not hard to fly.

Exequror - Designed as a cargo cruiser, this ship was built with purpose of operating in less than friendly environments. With bonuses pushed towards cargo capacity and remote armour repair systems this ship can also support a fleet action at the front line level. It has the same drone capacity as the Celestis and has a slot layout of 4,4,3 giving it some flexibility. The Exequror can only fit turrets. This is the easiest Gallente Cruiser to fly with a skill require ment of Gallente Cruiser I.

Guardian-Vexor - This ship is no longer available on the open market, for the simple reason that it was hideous. A cruiser sized drone carrier with some truely terrifying bonuses. Notably allowing an extra drone to be controlled per cruiser level on top of the number you got with the drones skill and a bonus to medium sized hybrid turrets. Just think of it considering it has a drone capacity of 75m3. This ship has a slot layout of 5,3,4 with the fittings for 4 turrets and 1 launcher. Finally this ship has a cargo capacity of 480m3 and only required a Gallente Cruiser skill rating of II. No wonder this ship was decomissioned…

Thorax - This is the main combat cruiser design for the Gallente people; with bonuses to microwarpdrive capacitor use and a bonus to turret damage its easy to see how this ship is designed for close quarters combat. The ship has a reasonable drone bay of 50m3, good slots at 5,3,5. At Gallente Cruiser III this is the hardest cruiser to fly that the Gallente have.

Vexor - The Vexor was designed as a non-sepecific combat cruiser. Bonuses to drones in hitpoints, damage and mining yield is granted from this ship as well as bonuses to medium hybid turrets. WIth a slot layout of 5,3,4 and 4 turret hardpoints this ship can cause some chaos. She has the same drone and cargo capacity as the Guardian variant of the Vexor design as well as the same skill requirement but as replacements go, this ship is no where near as nice.
