So, I got my first BS ever, a shiny new Armageddon today. After ratting a bit with it and helping chase off some of the usual loser crew who tries to fly around my corp's home system with inties and pick off miners, I get bored and head down the pipe to Placid, looking for some easy kills.
My fittings were a newbie snipeageddon setup: 6 mega beams, 2 med nos from when I was ratting earlier (can't fit large nos yet), 3 sensor boosters, 4 stabs, 4 cap relays.
So after tooling around a while, I warp into an 0.2 system that has a few SNIGG in it and some neuts. I immediately warp to a planet and do a bit of scanning, after checking the three top belts. Whoops, wrong planet. Right as I warp out, a SNIGG intie warps in.
Of course, he's waiting at the next planet, and warps in right when I do and tries to scramble me. Almost immediately, his buddy in a Nemesis decloaks and they both attack me.
Now, at this point, I should have been able to easily win-- pop the stealth with my beams, nos and drone the intie to death (or at least drive it away).
However, the stealth takes out my shields in like 3 vollies, and since I have no tank fitted, I of course panic 
Cue me attempting to shoot the intie and nos the bomber (which is 30 km away) while trying to warp out.
Since I have 4 stabs on, I immediately head to the station instead of a gate, compounding my errors. A few minutes later, I'm camped in.
Lessons learned: Don't panic and train my skills more >.<

It doesn't. The market in Placid is basically nonexistent >.<
I'll just wait till they go away.

There is another lesson here. It's "Lose the stabs, fit a tank!" 
Seriously. If you did have a tank fitted you would be stroking two SNIGG corpses on your way back to HQ, right now.

Probably true, but if I managed to screw up and draw one of the HAC gangs being fielded by CI as of late, then I would have lost a BS :/

You are being camped in by a stealth bomber and a interceptor at a station?......

Quoted for truth.
You were lucky plain and simple. It is not worth flying a BS untill you can FLY a BS. Ask anyone (except those that would profit from it) and they will tell you this.

4 stabs

Get a proper setup and you might achieve something.

You CONIN always seem to be suprised when you find someone has stabs, as if you expect scramblers to suddenly make your enemies explode or something.

4 stabs if only you had fit something to tank with instead you may have come out of the fight 2kills richer. Stabs are for people who expect to lose fights.

Well, since he just stated to be new to the whole BS thing... I think he was smart to fit em. Should he have been in a BS, in the same system where he noticed Snigg peeps in? no... but that's another story

I dont want to go down this route. But if you fill HALF your low slots with stabs you are planning for failure.
I can see the sense in one stab to prevent a gank, but 4?

I would agree with trepkos 100% on this. He is still an idiot though :) Sell the geddon and get a prophecy. The geddon may be bigger but think of ships as ballons and you having only enough air to fill a small one. ---"What's in your wallet?"--- |

But the whole point I am making is that, a stealth bomber and a interceptor can not do crap to a geddon who is at a station or stargate.
If he doesnt know this, then why is he in low sec, or in a battleship in general? --------

at the most you'll need 2 
Oh and how about fitting damage mods, since it's a snipeageddeon?

You dont need 4 CPR. What the hell are you going to do with all that cap. Fitting 4 WCS, well ID gank you in a belt for the horrific amount of stabs, and ive been anti pirate from day one.
There should be a big picture of Dale Winton or something on your ship for each warp core stab that you fit.
What are you going to gank, with 6 Mega Beams on, crap skills and no damage mods. T1 Frigs, maybe, everything else will just warp out.
Suggestion: Try Dual Heavy Pulse, a webber and scrambler, light tank and atleast 4 damage mods. If you cant fit that, seriously go and get a Prophecy or Maller until you have skills.
