hey all, as anyone who knows what a tempest is knows the tempest is currantly gimped as far as long range 1400mm's is concerned. So ive decided to try out close range setup i will be fighting angel's out in 0.0 and would like sum tips on how to go about fitting a tempest so that it might be able to take some damage and deal a fair bit aswell. I was thinking the following...
High-
6x 800mm cannon
2x siege cannon wit torps
Med-
1x tracking enhancer II
1x webber (for those pesky frigs)
1x Xl shield booster
1x cap booster
1x shield boost amp ( not sure about this
Low-
2x Gyrostab II
1x ballistics thing ( missle dmg/rof make good-erer )
3x Free slots for fittings and things if some spare just fit summore gyros or cap booster os sumthing
Before you guys start dont tell me if i want close range buy a blasterthron or apoc etc. thx ;)

Seriously; that is quite a good setup you got there, but I would tend to use a MWD to be able to get close, and armor-tank instead of shield tank.
Never think you can tank much dmg though, just enough to kill your target before he kills you...
well i was thinking armour tank you see, only problem is if i armour tank theres nolow slots left for damage enhancers etc.

You want to shield tank without hardeners?
Using autocannons for rathunting may seem like a good idea until you see how fast they chew through your ammo supply 
The 1400's are still quite useful against NPC imo.
If you really want to use a closerange setup I suggest you armour tank it.
talona if you actuly red the post u might know that ammo is not an issue as i have kinda stated abouve bp's r cheap and loot recycles well.
i havnt tryed 1400mm's on anything exept the larger battleships as i couldant hit the cruisers for s**t
whereas the duel 425's and 800's ive tryed 'chew' through them easy

 take out that 1600mm and put a 3rd hardener
if you are fighting angel npc you need 3 types of hardeners, explosive, kinetic and thermal
Thanks that will save me alot of money for the rollen tusngen thing :P
