Been toying with the idea of creating a setup for hunting lone sleeper farmers that neutralizes any hope of escape.
[Lachesis, W-space lone BC hunter]
Magnetic Field Stabilizer II
Magnetic Field Stabilizer II
Medium Armor Repairer II
Remote Sensor Dampener II, Targeting Range Dampening
Remote Sensor Dampener II, Targeting Range Dampening
Remote Sensor Dampener II, Targeting Range Dampening
Warp Scrambler II
Warp Disruptor II
Stasis Webifier II
10MN MicroWarpdrive II
250mm Railgun II, Antimatter Charge M
250mm Railgun II, Antimatter Charge M
250mm Railgun II, Antimatter Charge M
Core Probe Launcher I
Improved Cloaking Device II
Inverted Signal Field Projector I
Particle Dispersion Projector I
Hammerhead II x3
Hobgoblin II x2
Idea here is to catch them with their pants down, tanking sleepers. By dropping core probes to narrow down directional scan results, should be able to filter down the options pretty quickly. Then, while they're not expecting it, get within 40km of them and start pummeling them with the rails and drones.
Puts out about 250dps, takes pretty much anything's targeting range down to < 20km and I wouldn't recommend getting any closer than that...1.1km/s with mwd on, not much of a tank (but probably enough to get you out should things start going sour), etc.
Have to wisely choose your targets here of course, but even a BS could go down against this setup with a few sleepers helping you out

Sleepers have a habit of going "hey squishy" then proceeding to ruin your day.
Even against possible targets that aren't actively attacking them? I thought that's the whole point of threat...

I am 85% sure that they dynamically pick targets regardless of who is shooting etc. I could be wrong as i only blow up people in wormholes and not sleepers.
Yeah, I agree that they might start shooting you, a little bit...but I doubt you'd suddenly become the primary target on their threat list...
Maybe a few pot-shots because they are programmed to think you're a threat automatically, but definitely not drawing the entire attention of the spawn.

Is awful. One MAR II is not a tank. Sleepers will primary you. You will instapop.
Never said it was first off, just said it might give you some time to get away. Also, I'm not convinced they will primary you...at the very least, you could run.

Is awful. A substantial fleet is required to do wormhole space. You will warp in, damp one target. Everyone else will target you and start shooting. You will warp off or instapop.
I specifically said this setup is not designed to take on multiple targets. LONERS ONLY.

Might be able to gank things not facing sleepers, but wormholes dump you right next to their counterparts meaning that its easy to run away. So youd have to scan them down when they were taking a break.
Again, not the purpose of this setup.
