These were my thoughts on the topic (originally posted here).

The immediate thought that pops to mind is the lack of art assets for them, so I started thinking about them. Why not utilize existing art assets from Eve? Obviously they'd need to be tweaked a little, but they'd give a good base.
Amarr MCC: Abaddon Dropship: Harbringer HAV: Golden Madrugar reskin LAV: Golden Methana reskin (with a popemobile feel to it)
Minmatar MCC: Nidhoggur Dropship: Thrasher HAV: Rusty Gunloggi reskin LAV: Rusty Saga reskin (with a dunebuggy feel to it)
The ADS's would be essentially the same as the DS's only with the front turret.
All that would be left then would be the turrets. Artillery/Autocannon and Beam/Pulse lasers would be the obvious choices for obvious reasons. 40mm and 250mm for the Artillery, 12.7mm and 150mm for the Autocannon. I wouldn't know where to start with what could be used by the Amarr outside of Beam/Pulse lasers.
Comments? Questions? Suggestions?
I hope that when we finally get them with Legion that they are worth the wait.
The Universe is hostile, so impersonal
Devour to survive
So it is, so it's always been....

It strikes me that it would be more accurate that the Amarrian HAV, representative of a Khanid Innovations HAV, would bear the Caldari Hull whereas the Minmatar would receive the surplus Gallentean HAV as part of their financial packages to the Republic Based on Lore, yes.
I was working off tech similarities.
