I want a similar answer, I want to build a blasterthron for l4s. Advice?
Before you harp on me about using eve-search, I did, and my search came back with an error and refused to search.
I may post my setup later when I've played around with it, but at this time all I have is a megathron, 800 charges, and a whole lot of work left to do.

This question comes up every few days here, so there probably are a lot of threads this issue is discussed.
Usually the thread starter gets the answer to consider using a Dominix since the Megathron has too big cap problems to run the weapons and a tank. Cap injector charges use too much cargo space to be a solution for that.

If you absolutely positively must do missions in a Megathron, I've got mine laid out like this:
Highs: 6 425mm rails, the rest put in whatever (I'm using missiles, don't make fun of me)
Med: 3x cap rechargers, 1 target painter
Low: 1 LAR, 1 1600mm plate, 4 hardeners, 1 passive resist or EANM, or hardener
Drone Bay: 15 lights, 5 mediums
Be warned that this layout requires you to have a decent knowledge of how transversal works. You can't muck around in an L4 mission for too long missing all your shots, cause Mega's don't tank as well as Dominixes.
the 6 425mm's and tp are for flattening bses and cruisers. The missiles are to boost my dps, but you can use DLA's or med NOSes (large NOS won't fit without trading in a 425mm) if you're so inclined.
I don't use a webber, cause the light drones are taking out the ships too close to hit (normally frigates, sometimes cruisers), and webbers screw around with their tracking. I find that my issue is mainly with cap regen, hence the 3rd cap recharger (never liked cap boosters for missions).
2 LAR's is a nightmare to maintain on a Megathron; it has enough trouble running 1 continuously. Therefore, scrap it in favour of a 1600mm plate. that leaves 5 slots for a mix of hardeners, EANM's and E-mem, which hopefully is enough to keep you alive.
So if you're a pod pilot, where do little podders and poddettes come from? |

2 LAR and 1 MWD?
MWD = -25% cap
2 LAR = uses a lot more cap
Not to mention you can't use MWD's in deadspace, since that is what most of the missions are run in.

I do lev 4 missions in a megathron and i setup like this
Hi - 6 x 425mm tech 2 / 6 x neutron blaster cannon 2 + 2 slots of your choice
mid - 4 x cap charger 2
low - 2 x cap relay 2 LAR (tech 2 or good named t1), 3 hardeners
Apart from angel missions i can do any lev 4 mission solo in that setup
some extra info
drones - pack 5 light and 4 heavy (watch out for rats targetting your drones tho)
for the 2 spare slots i tend to pack assault launchers if there's lots of frigates to kill or 2 named heavy launchers to help kill cruisers.
forget about AB or MWD as they won't help you as much as the cap charger
