Preface:
Okay so I'll be honest; I was deliberating hardcore about whether or not to post this. But, seeing that just about wherever I go nowadays I hear "why don't you come bring a 5 billion t3 cruiser" or some bs, it seems my reputation precedes me.
So, here is my Ashimmu fit. It is not quite finished, but I am looking to polish it. I have two fits; one for gang and one for solo. The fits are interchangeable.
This ship has poor grid... which is unfortunate. It is in need of a rebalance to offer it at least 200 more grid and perhaps 30 more CPU. Additionally, I don't believe it *NEEDS* a drone bay, but a 15m3 drone bay would increase this ship's soloing ability considerably. With the poor grid in mind, and the cost of the ship in mind as well, Heavy Lasers are probably out of the question if you want to fit a respectable tank to the slowest cruiser in the game, and still be able to microwarpdrive around with energy in your capacitor.
That said, I AM LOOKING FOR ADVICE FOR THIS SHIP.
With a set of LG-slaves - which an anonymous benefactor bestowed upon me for only 300 mil ♥ - here are my two fits.
[Ashimmu, Support (GANG)] 1600mm Reinforced Rolled Tungsten Plates I Dark Blood Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane Dark Blood Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane Heat Sink II Nanofiber Internal Structure II Damage Control II
10MN Digital Booster Rockets Medium Electrochemical Capacitor Booster I, Cap Booster 800 Gallente Navy Stasis Webifier
Dark Blood Medium Energy Neutralizer Dark Blood Small Energy Neutralizer Dark Blood Small Energy Neutralizer Medium Pulse Laser II, Scorch S Medium Pulse Laser II, Scorch S Medium Pulse Laser II, Scorch S Medium Pulse Laser II, Scorch S
Trimark Armor Pump II Trimark Armor Pump II Trimark Armor Pump II
79k EHP 21,702 Armor HP Cap Stable: Cap booster reliant Zaps 270 cap every 12 seconds (or 22.5 cap/s) from 14km. Webs at 21km, or 27.3km. 122 DPS 1187m/s
[Ashimmu, Solo] 1600mm Reinforced Rolled Tungsten Plates I 800mm Reinforced Rolled Tungsten Plates I Dark Blood Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane Dark Blood Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane Dark Blood Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane Damage Control II
10MN Digital Booster Rockets Dark Blood Medium Capacitor Booster, Cap Booster 800 Dark Blood Warp Scrambler
Dark Blood Small Energy Neutralizer Dark Blood Small Energy Neutralizer Dark Blood Small Energy Neutralizer Dark Blood Small Energy Neutralizer Medium Pulse Laser II, Amarr Navy Multifrequency S Medium Pulse Laser II, Amarr Navy Multifrequency S Medium Pulse Laser II, Amarr Navy Multifrequency S

120k EHP 28,380 Armor HP Cap Stable: 1 neut, 3 guns and scram running Neutralizes 54 cap a second, 324 volley. 94 DPS 1024m/s
Here is a Heavy Laser fit I may consider, but it looks really shoddy to me.
[Ashimmu, HPL II] Dark Blood Power Diagnostic System Dark Blood Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane Dark Blood Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane Heat Sink II Nanofiber Internal Structure II Damage Control II
10MN Digital Booster Rockets Dark Blood Medium Capacitor Booster, Cap Booster 800 Gallente Navy Stasis Webifier

So it's a thread about yet another stupidly expensive ship you're going to soon lose to some noobs in most amusing way? You could at least pick some worthwhile hull instead, maybe phantasm _____________ I don't care what is nerfed, as long as it's not my "undock" button. |

Ashimmu needs a lot reballancing, slot layout, fitting, dronebay. The only things that are good atm are the bonuses(that it realy can¦t use because of the bad slot layout and fitting) and the look of it.
Also the fittings do nothing a curse couldn¦t do a lot cheaper and probably better overall.

Your solo build intrigues me but alas I only get just under 85k EHP with my EFT (mine might be out of date again) although its still a rather nice buffer. It "should" be good at hitting frigates, cruisers, ratting ravens ect but I'm just not all that convinced with it. Still its the only fit I have seen for it that makes it able to fight something.

I have low-grade slaves installed as I said at the top of my post.
Also, I just re-checked the numbers, apparently I had fleet bonuses checked. So that reduces 10% armor HP.
So the solo fit actually has:
109k EHP 25,800 Armor HP.
I will update the OP to reflect the change.
edit: OP changed.
Original level 5 fleet numbers are:
120k EHP if all level 5 fleet bonus i.e, alt) 28,380 with level 5 fleet bonus i.e, alt)

I'm digging that second fit so far, though my figures differ from yours somewhat seeing as I have maxed armour gang skills and mindlink and refuse to fly without at least a noob alt in a gang so as to recieve bonuses. With that in mind, I get 125k EHP, 90 dps and a bit less speed.
Overall, though, seems like a great anti-support ship for murdering friggies - if a little expensive. But hey, the milkshake brings all the boys, etc - knowing how everyone likes to kill faction ships, and you specifically, you won't be short of targets.
The HPL fit simply sucks. It's terrible in almost every way, lacking tank and dps.
I've been thinking of getting an Asshimu for a while now.. maybe I'll be flying this as bait in FW gangs in future 
Edit: why don't you come bring a 5 billion t3 cruiser?

Also, in regards to the solo fit I checked some math.
I want to fit a Corpii A-Type Small Armor Repairer, but the EHP bonus it delivers is only 44.2 per second. That means it would take 542 seconds to make up the difference of having an additional Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane fitted instead, but for soloing I believe that MAY be the way to go if I am picky about targets, especially capless targets such as Ravens who can keep firing at me after I deplete their cap.
Ah. I knew the implants helped but I just couldnt figure out where the rest was comming from
I have been wanting a special ship for a while now but given the cost and abilities I just see the phantasm as a more worthwhile buy for me even though I dont get as much of a tank. It is tempting though so I will be keeping an eye on what happens with yours

Also what are you going to be killing with 94dps? Your enemy will be the passive tank drake and he will make you cry.
On any other ship even with the neuts in the time it will take you to nibble someone down they could of probably called back up which will come fast as ovbiously everyone wants to kill the Ashimmu and lets be honest you aren't renowned for cheaply fitting your ships.
(Also in before merin)
What on earth makes you think that if after I say "I am going to be selective in picking my targets" that I am going to engage the ONE ship that you know without a doubt could tank the 94 DPS?
I'm not going to shoot at Drakes solo, but in my fleet of pirate ships, we very well will. And we'll take him >:3

Either blob up so whatever primaries the fancy faction ship gets the crap ganked out of it (which seems to be your plan anyways) or fight things that.
1. Don't have drones 2. Don't have cap injectors 3. Don't have capless weaponry

LOL the ashimmu doesnt even have good bonuses. Webs operate at 10-13 km depending on overheat. It gets a web RANGE bonus. Medium nuets operate at 12km. It gets a nuet STRENGTH bonus. ****ing stupid. They both start at about the same range. They should both be either a range bonus or a strength bonus.
And while large lasors might be overpowered in issues of range and dps, medium lasors are not. A medium lasor cap use bonus without a damage bonus screams 'Put autocannons on me so you can use the cap for something else!' Something that shares qualities with the maller should not be developed into a 200mil isk ship.
(The sacraledge fixes all maller problems. Missiles w/ bonus instead of one cap usage medium lasor bonus. Drone bay. Mids. Its effectively an entirely different ship that happens to use the same model.)

the fact they are 200 makes me actually laugh out loud.
for the things its capable of, i wouldnt pay more than 50m for it in its current form. and anyone who can fly amarr recons but still owns one of these needs their head checking (or not i dont care really)

Well, Siigari sets want to buy contracts like this: Megathron Navy issue: 500 Isk (tops).
She doesn't even bother baiting with 500 thousand Isk.
If she got the Ashimmu the same way, it's all profit, you see.

Hey Siig. Was fun fighting you and Lenny last night and from that encounter I can definitely say that your biggest issue is DPS. I would probably drop a little bit of tank and a neut or two in order to jam on more guns and a damage mod or two because otherwise you simply don't have the firepower to kill a majority of targets you run into. It also kind of sucks that a ship with web bonuses only gets 3 mids.. would be great if they revamped that thing and gave it at least 4 mids to ensure you can a web or two AND a scram into your fits but I won't hold my breath on CCP changing it any time soon. ----- The Python Cartel - My Pirate Blog |

I'm pretty sure a Vigil or Cheetah could, too. Basically, anything with a TD that can hit from 15km or so can kill this thing.

Ah yes, more proof that you can't buy PvP skill with GTCs...
As for the ship, it's awful. Your setups have hilariously pathetic dps, pathetic neuting ability, and thanks to the pathetic speed, your "amazing" tank is pretty underwhelming. Meanwhile you've dumped an absolutely staggering amount of money into one of the worst ships in the game, resulting in a ship that's pretty much worse in every way than a Pilgrim or Curse, but for many times the price tag.
So yeah, feel free to bring this abomination to my Curse, I would love a bunch of free faction loot. ==========

Yeah man, it was a good fight.
Truth be told, while the DPS is abysmal, we were missing a few ships.
We've got a faction lineup, and right now people are training skills for the ships so we all have maxed out skills. I'm also training up minmatar cruiser 5 because I like the minmatar pirate ships.
We're gonna have:
Scorch Phantasm (wooo) HAM Gila w/ ECM ;3 (30km w/mwd!) Gank Vigilant w/ shield buffer Tackling Worm Interceptor catching Daredevil My bait Ashimmu, OR Tackling Cynabal (Lenny) MWDving Succubus for anti-drone support
and more.
That's just a taste. We've got some interesting stuff up our sleeves, so I look forward to seeing how the pirate ships do in a fleet.
Good fight o/ We'll see each other again :3

Originally by: Siigari Kitawa That's just a taste. We've got some interesting stuff up our sleeves, so I look forward to seeing how the pirate ships do in a fleet.
Allow me to save you the trouble of GTCing all those ships just to find out how most of them suck:
Quote: Scorch Phantasm (wooo)
Awesome, and the only truly good ship on that list. Excellent dps, excellent range, a solid buffer, and pretty good speed, the only disadvantage is how much ISK you lose when it gets primaried. But I suppose you have plenty of GTCs to cover that little drawback...
Quote: HAM Gila w/ ECM ;3 (30km w/mwd!)
Worthless. DPS is poor, and un-bonused ECM has terrible jam chances. The Phantasm just dominates it, or if you absolutely must have missiles, a Cerberus (or Navy Caracal if it has to be faction) will out-perform it in every possible way.
Quote: Gank Vigilant w/ shield buffer
Mediocre. It's not that it's a terrible ship, but the Phantasm is just better. The Vigilant gains only slightly better dps, but at such terrible range that the Phantasm will take the top spot on the killmails. The only real advantage here is the ECM drones, and if that's what you want, just bring a Falcon.
Quote: Tackling Worm
Worthless. A Harpy completely outclasses it, and even a (*shudders*) Hawk is better in every possible way.
Quote: Interceptor catching Daredevil
Worthless. An interceptor of your own or a Harpy/Ishkur/Jaguar are better in every possible way.
Quote: My bait Ashimmu, OR
As mentioned before, a hilarious waste of ISK that only someone like you could possibly think is even remotely a good idea.
Quote: Tackling Cynabal (Lenny)
See "Vigilant" above, except the Cynabal is probably even worse.
Quote: MWDving Succubus for anti-drone support
Worthless, because the role you are talking about does not exist. Killing drones in a gang fight is a waste of time, and bringing a specialized ship to do it is just painfully stupid. Just bring another Phantasm and kill the drones' controlling ship even faster. ==========
