The Eos is a Gallente fleet command ship, designed primarily as a drone boat. It has the 125mb drone bandwidth required to field a flight of sentry or heavy drones, and a respectable-sized drone bay, though not quite the equal to the Dominix or Ishtar.
The Eos finds use in advanced PvP fleets and gangs, where its resistance-bonused tank and capacity to boost both armor tanks and (for instance) tackle range are valued. It also brings considerable drone DPS, though given its cost it's a bit of a waste to use the ship for DPS alone.
As the Eos is a drone boat, it is highly recommended that the following skills be trained before a pilot attempts to fly the ship:
Drones V
Gallente Drone Specialization IV
Light Drone Operation IV
Medium Drone Operation IV
Scout Drone Operation V
Drone Interfacing V
Drone Navigation V
Drone Sharpshooting V
Drone Durability IV
Sentry Drone Interfacing V
Heavy Drone Operation V
Additionally, as the Eos is a (rather expensive) T2 ship, the pilot should be able to fit a full T2 armor tank. The armor compensations skills listed below are highly recommended but not required:
Hull Upgrades V
Mechanics V
Repair Systems IV (for active armor tanking)
Armor Rigging IV (for T2 armor rigs)
EM Armor Compensation IV
Explosive Armor Compensation IV
Kinetic Armor Compensation IV
Thermal Armor Compensation IV

In ancient Greek mythology, Eos was goddess of the dawn.
