Surely the most powerful military force in New Eden (of the playable races) would have more than a paltry 3 weapons and an equipment.

gold paint shortage
C'mon, don't look at me like that... what do you expect when every one of the millions of Amarr spaceships in service is covered with a ton of it, and then to add onto the strain on the gold paint industry suddenly you want millions and millions of dropsuits, vehicles, and guns painted?
There is not enough gold paint in the galaxy to satisfy the Amarr, and God forbid they launch a new ship or weapon or tea set without it. No, seriously, God forbids it. You don't want the Theology Council to know you ran out of gold paint.
We'll just have to wait until the empire can allocate more gold paint for new infantry gear |

CCP just needs a little more time to come up with more phallic designs for the Amarr. I had expected them to be done with the Scrambler Lance by now, but I guess they're taking their time to make it bigger and *girthier.* |

Long story short:
CCP wanted to focus on Gallente and Caldari first because they were easy to balance due to their polar-opposite nature and well-balanced gameplay styles. Amarr and Minmatar also being polar opposites but to much larger extremes (one focusing entirely on speed, one focusing entirely on armor, damage profiles, etc).
Flash forward a few months to post-game release, they're having to fix/change things only a monthly basis because everything on release was buggy as hell. Lot of devs were in makeshift positions (game designers were fired for being general buffoons (see Fanfest 2013), producers playing dual roles as producer/game designer, lot of problems) and no real general direction.
Flash forward to November-ish 2013 and a complete restructure happens, CCP Rouge gets hired on as Senior Producer, asks the inevitable question of "why are we making this crazy ambitious game on an outdated system with only 256mb?" and completely changes the direction toward PC with long-term support. Development grinds to a halt, lot of devs go back to Eve Online (Foxfour, Nullarbor, Greyscale).
Dust 514 skeleton team doesn't have the resources to complete grand-scale new content such as weapons, MCCs, and what not to help iron out parity as most of the resources have been offloaded to the new project.
May 2014 Rouge Wedding happens, community morale completely tanks.
Few months later, CCP lays off 1/3rd of their entire workforce.
CPM election, community management brought down to as many people as you can count on your fingers.
Annnnnd now we're here. That's basically it in a nutshell.
Sniper range nerf did nothing but make it harder to counter-snipe redliners. That and open up for really stupid feedback

The Gallente will be unable to resist their powerful thirst for Quafe-« brand beverages
Seeing a Quafe-« colored Amarrian dropsuit will remind them that they have not drank a Federation-approved can of Quafe-« in minutes, crippling their situational awareness and reflexes.
Gallente heavy frames, further burdened by their heavy armor plates, may become delirious; seeing the purple stream of a Quafe-« laser rifle as a high-pressure fountain of Quafe-« UltraGäó and trying to catch it in their mouth, much like a desperate man stranded in a desert may begin to hallucinate pools of water and try to drink the sand.
Truly the Quafe-« weapons are the most horrifying tools of psychological warfare on the battlefield today. |

Rattati I know you are logical and keep your bias opinions from interfering with balance and I thank you for that... can you look into the speed to health ratio for all the amarr suits? the min either have to much health or the amarr have to little.... I'm not sure if its for every suit but its noticeable with the assaults... I think the 15 hp buff to the min a while back is to blame for this imbalance.

However lore supports that Amarr ARE stubborn and inflexible but prone of bursts of inspiration especially in military matters.
Dropsuits.... developed and prototyped by the Amarr Clone Tech and Sleeper implants...developed and prototyped by the Amarr TIII Confessor Destroyer..... developed and prototyped by the Amarr
moreover the Amarr have the largest of the Navies (despite the relative age of their vessels), etc
Sure the Amarr ARE stubborn pricks...... but when it comes to conquering **** nobody does it better.

-The Caldari were the ones who discovered the dropsuit technology
-The Amarrians failed horribly upon their conquest of Jovian space
-The Amarrians allied the Caldari only as a counter to the Federation.
Masters of conquering.. no. More like, they'll take what they can easily, but a powerful military might keeps them in their place.

I've yet to hear anyone argue a compelling argument for the defeat at Vak'Atioth as anything more than a moral blow to the Amarr. 1/3 vessels destroyed by a sub capital arm of only 200 ships which dreadnaughts were a very real part of the Amarrian arsenal. Probably wise that the Emperor of the time did not commit more men to the invasion though.
As far as information I can find suggests the Amarrian Sentinel suit pre-dates the events at Pike's Landing making it the first "Dropsuit" used by Immortal Clones.
Additionally the Federation are allies to the Republic for the same reason, though the more in-depth accounts only really saw the Caldari and Amarr make their mutual agreements after the Great Rebellion.... again that is if I am not mistaken. There's 6000 years of Amarrian lore to learn and I'm more familar with the Athran part of that the Age of Expansion.

As far as information I can find suggests the Amarrian Sentinel suit pre-dates the events at Pike's Landing making it the first "Dropsuit" used by Immortal Clones.
Additionally the Federation are allies to the Republic for the same reason, though the more in-depth accounts only really saw the Caldari and Amarr make their mutual agreements after the Great Rebellion.... again that is if I am not mistaken. There's 6000 years of Amarrian lore to learn and I'm more familar with the Athran part of that the Age of Expansion.
I was referring to the immortal clone technology discovered by the Caldari. As for the Federation allying the Republic, that was because the two nations had been friendly towards each other for time and the Federation wanted to help the Minmatar against the Amarr; the Minmatar was weak on its own. The Gallenteans gave the Minmatar titan technology, and armed them during the Great Rebellion. The Caldari agreed to work with the Amarrians because the were a powerful ally militarily and economically, and could help them stand off against the Gallenteans.
The winner of this war will not prove who's right; only, who's left.

The Amarr discovered the sleeper tech we use, not the Caldari.
Pretty sure somewhere it was established that the 51st Expeditionary Unit, a non combative unit attached the the Imperial Navy discovered the sleeper implants and used them on the Caldari Prisoners to create the first Templars.
Dude it was not a matter of Gallente being "all sympathetic and ****" to the plight of the Republic...remember there's no black and white in New Eden. I'll find and quote the piece of information that expresses the Gallentean view of the Republic if you bear with me a little bit......but its a fair assumption to suggest they use them as a buffer against the Empire with the intent to hold the balance of power in check.
"Even if the Federation was high on victory against the State, military leaders knew that opening a second full-scale war against the Amarr Empire would be fatal. Nonetheless, for a long time, the Federation government observed and studied the Minmatar, realizing that they could be used to weaken the Amarr Empire. However, they realized that open action would force hostilities with the Empire, so they were only able to covertly supply the Minmatar rebels with supplies and materiel."
"A sympathetic faction within the Federation government saw its chance to both pacify the popular cries to free the Minmatar, and the perceived need to weaken the Amarr Empire."
"However, many factors stopped this from becoming a reality. Minmatar space was in ruins, and if it was to become Federation territory, many resources would have to drained from elsewhere in the reconstruction. The largest factor was that the addition of the Minmatar to the Federation would no doubt antagonize the Amarr Empire significantly. Even if bruised by the defeats at the hands of the Jove, the Gallente felt that the Amarr would no doubt attack them if the Minmatar signed the Federal Charter."
I feel these comments outline that there was significantly more behind Freedom's Guile than just a Dudley Do Right attitude.
Never heard about the exchange of titan tech though.... will have to look into that.

But the Jove and the Sleepers are somewhat different. Aren't sleepers fully infomorphic now? Able to exist completely on a digital level.

I click on this post hoping to see a answer that would explain why Amar doesn't have as much gear as much as the other races.
Unfortunately, I see this.

Disappointed again. No Officer Amar dropsuit and no answer to lack of Amar gear.
Cool.
Thank god for CCP Rattati!!

The Amarr are the ones who developed the first prototypes using implants salvaged from sleeper bodies. a joint research team between Ishukone (not caldari state) Mordus Legion and Gallente are what developed the clones we use now, but that was only possible due to the study of Templar One (Vince Barabin)
(guess whos just finished reading templar one again )
Never argue with an idiot. they bring you down to their level and beat you through experience
