			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Seeing as plenty of people have been offering up the contents of their hangar I thought I should probably join in. My hangar in GE-8JV contains the following ships:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Rifter</strong>: I have about 15 of these kicking around with a couple of fits that I am trying out. They are usually just called <em>Rifter</em> but at the moment I have one called <em>Freki</em> after the alliance tournament prize and one called <em>Agincourt</em> after its victory over the French in Curse.</li>
<li><strong>Cheetah</strong>: Called <em>Peek-a-boo</em> and used mostly for probing exploration sites. My probing skills are terrible and I use the exploration sites to get some practice. Honest.</li>
<li><strong>Claw</strong>: I have two of these both confusingly called <em>Claw</em> and it takes me a couple of attempts to tell them apart. One is fit with an active tank and the other with a buffer tank. Not a ship I regularly solo in so the active tank ship gets more use in interceptor packs.</li>
<li><strong>Stiletto</strong>: My staple fleet ship. I currently only have one of these because they die pretty often. She&#8217;s called <em>Point!</em> and my fit is pretty standard for a tackle interceptor. Sometimes I like to put on explosive shield resist rigs when I&#8217;m tackling for a small gang.</li>
<li><strong>Hound</strong>: When I run frigate gangs I tend to FC from the safety of my stealth bomber. <em>Hound</em> is fit to be able to use torpedoes and bombs and the cloak makes it a good ship to lead from.</li>
<li><strong>Republic Fleet Firetail</strong>: Currently unassembled my Firetail is waiting for me to come up with a fit that I like before I take her out hunting.</li>
<li><strong>Dramiel</strong>: I have two of these sleek and popular Angel frigates. The hefty price tag and status as flavour of the month has put me off flying them. I should really sell them while their price is at a peak but I like having them around.</li>
<li><strong>Thrasher</strong>: This is probably my favourite ship to fly at the moment and I have seven in my hangar. Three of them are fit; one with artillery, one with autocannons, and one with an experimental setup I have yet to try. All of them are called either <em>Sabre</em> or <em>Thrasher</em> except the test one which is called <em>Brick</em>.</li>
<li><strong>Sabre</strong>: This is the most recent addition to my hangar and one that I am just getting the hang of flying. She&#8217;s called <em>Sabre</em> and has been out on a couple of gangs now.</li>
<li><strong>Rupture</strong>: Another staple and a ship I have been flying in solo a lot recently. I currently have two fit in my hangar. <em>Freki</em> is fit as a nano ship for pretending to be a Vagabond in and <em>Rupture</em> is a pretty standard armour tank fit.</li>
<li><strong>Muninn</strong>: A pretty standard sniper HAC that hasn&#8217;t been used in far too long. Named <em>Muninn</em> in case you didn&#8217;t spot the general theme here.</li>
<li><strong>Vagabond</strong>: Another staple of any Minmatar hangar. Eponymously named <em>Vagabond</em> she comes out in small gangs.</em>
<li><strong>Rapier</strong>: I haven&#8217;t actually used her in anger but she&#8217;s there for when I need her. Until then <em>Rapier</em> still has the manufacturer&#8217;s shrink rap on some of her controls.</li>
<li><strong>Scimitar</strong>: Because I only have Logistics IV I haven&#8217;t played with <em>Scimitar</em> much. She&#8217;s fit for roaming PvP gangs but I&#8217;m still adjusting the fit until I&#8217;m happy with it. I do sometimes fly logistics for alliance fleets but in those cases I use official alliance-fit logistics ships.</li>
<li><strong>Hurricane</strong>: I have just one of these called, imaginatively, <em>Hurricane</em>. She&#8217;s fit for damage and hasn&#8217;t seen the light of day for quite a while.</li>
<li><strong>Tempest</strong>: <em>Machariel</em> is my fleet fit Tempest for when DPS is the only thing we need. I prefer to fly in support roles but lately there hasn&#8217;t been any point so the fleet battleship has been brought out. Despite being a small ship pilot in general I have had fun flying Tempests in small gangs with some of my old pirate friends. I tried a nano fit but it died due to over confidence or lack of ability. Hopefully I&#8217;ll try another before too long.</li>
<li><strong>Typhoon</strong>: This is my ratting ship. I lost her predecessor due to accidentally turning off all my hardeners so this one is called <em>Pay Attention</em>. I don&#8217;t use her much these days because my alts provide most of my income.</li>
</ul>
<p>As you can see, Wensley&#8217;s hangar is fully focussed on PvP. The Wolf, Jaguar, and Cyclone are noticeable by their absence at the moment but I&#8217;ll probably buy some soon. I like to be stocked for any eventuality. In general I tend to solo in the T1 ships and use the T2 variants in gangs and fleets.</p>
<p>The An&#8217;Har family, by contrast, have a selection of shuttles, a <strong>Prowler</strong>, and a <strong>Mastodon</strong> to their name. They&#8217;re saving up for a <strong>Fenrir</strong> but that is probably a little while away because Wensley loses ships at a phenomenal rate.</p>
