Also, one of the oft-forgotten drawbacks of rails is that overheating doesn't increase the per-shot damage - same kind of annoyance the artycane had. Although with frigates being so weak these days, I think that drawback has less impact.
With missiles v frigs I really like RoF ;/ though maybe I'm biased seeing as rarely will +damage lower "shots to kill" on frigates
I don't necessarily think you want to test just with CNAM (16+17 is just not that amazing, also you can't all-in loci for railguns effectively) I agree with Michael's assessment that you will need to constantly swap ammos with rails. For reference CN uranium has 50% more optimal than CNAM and 83% of CNAM damage.

TEST's new financial plan is to screw greedy goblin out of his savings. Will probably work. After being scammed for 50? billion last time he still rejoined TEST.
I jumped into Katugumur, saw samuel was online with legio and knew he was in the kronos. Splatter was in Sotrenzur and then samuel left local and jumped into sot. I left splatter on the ingunn gate to see what system he was going to and told the other guys he was most likely coming to eifer, luckily most of them were already in eifer so there was only like 3 people in gusandal and the kronos just jumped right into a loki and got tackled. I was reshipping during this, me and the domi landed on eifer gate and jumped through where the everyone else was already attacking him. GG
Also why would you come to the conclusion that I had anything to do with that before seeing the mail lol

Because you used to roam around in a battle Kronos earlier this year yeah?....I was expecting it to be you getting blown up but then saw you on the kill. Funny how that works out.

Maller 4x Focused Medium Pulse Laser I 2x Cap Recharger II 1x 10MN meta mwd 1x DCU II 2x ANP II 1x 1600 tungsten 1x EANM II 1x meta explosive active armour hardener 3x trimark 5x Scorch S
When I mentioned its inability to hold tackle on things I was told that there would be other ships in the fleet to fill the roles the maller can't do but it would form the core of the fleet.
It's ok because there are other ships in the fleet to fill the role of DPS as well. :CSDW:
That's the joke.jpg His reasoning was literally that the first fleets inability to do anything would be mitigated by an entire second fleet of various ships in correct fits which would be a well rounded and capable fleet and would patch up any gaps left by the fit of the Maller fleet. I didn't know how to argue against that.
There are many fleets in this fleet. The Maller fleet is the flagship fleet, though. It's the fleet that has nothing but flags which wave menacingly at their foes. It wins the real battle - the battle of the mind.

I don't think he actually gets it but I tried.
Update
elite god mailed: you dont understand the fleet correctly but thank you for trying. fast tackle are a support add on to this fleet. and your thinking like 250 pilots i am presenting to the corp and for other small gang warfare
Maller doctrine only works in small gang warfare obv.
