Finally I've got my first BS and yes its a tempest. Yes I have read everything here about how they are the worst tier 2 bs, large projectiles are S**T etc etc.
What I would like is a basic setup for npc hunting in 0.0 space, that I can play about with and adapt to myself.
I've got 3.75million skill points and the only thing that I can't use at the moment is cruise missles.
(Please try to keep flaming and trolling to a minimum and if you want to post about how rubbish the Tempest is or how large proj suck then post in one of the other posts  )

First thing to say generally is to get your skills up (which you're doubtlessly doing anyway) as with the bare minimum skills a BS is just a big target (i lost several megathrons early on jumping into the deep end before i appreciated this ).
Anyway, you asked for set-ups not state-the-bleedin' obvious advice so here's mine :-
6* 1400 howies (with emp)
2* heavy launchers (with widowmakers)
1* large C5-L shield booster
2* named shield hardeners
1* F-90 sensor booster
1* Quad-Lif mwd
2 gyro2 damage mods
2 tracking enhancrs2
1 rcu
1 warp core stabiliser
As you'll notice this is not a tanked set-up as i run missions mostly and so got pretty lazy in playing with set-ups as current missions are not really a threat to a BS, i'm sure others can give you tanking advice re PvP.
I use a number of named modules and have weapond upgrades level 4 to reduce cpu usuage so i don't need to use a low slot for a cpu enhancer but despite having level 5 engineering (among others) and only using heavy launchers, i still need one RCU.
I've messed around with this set-up now and again but that usually revolves around more launchers / less turrets and usually come back to this configuration.
hope this gives you some ideas or at least a starting reference, as i say you may want to look at similar threads, particularly regarding tanking.

try this setup - it works pretty well:
6x1400
2xsiege launcher
t2 large shield booster
shield amp
2 hardener (depending on which rats)
f-90
2 gyro2 (or 2wcs)
1 t2 tracking enhancer
pdu/rcu to make it all fit and get some recharge.
fit drones as you see fit (dont use all heavy now)
its probably not the greatest setup but it works - best I did was 2 elder (1mil each)and 1 commodore (1.5m) with inty support...
for this setup you need wu5/eng5 and maybe elect5 depending on whether you used named items or not. with lesser grid you can fit cruise launchers instead of siege and it will still work (all launcher can run defender if you need)
