I don't see threads on the ship setups index about megathron setups for lvl 4 missions. Therefore I suppose it's not possible to do those with a Mega (or am I wrong?).
My question then is this; is it possible to do lvl 3 missions in a megathron?
Regards,
Kharz

A Mega for lvl'3s is overkill, and probably not the best choice by a long stretch. Brutix would probably be a better choice for lvl3s. A Dominix would be a better choice.
Can a Mega do lvl4's? yep they can, it just isn't as easy as some other ships. I just started with the Mega on lvl4s for a change of pace. Deff. different than in a Raven.

Well speed is one thing... but it's primary weapons are going to be large Railguns/Blasters, which have a large resolution.
You're going to be missing a lot of the shots against the smaller targets (Bc's are the largest in Lvl 3s), and spending a lot more on ammo vs. using a Brutix and hitting the majority of the time.

So fit Mediums/Smalls, and take a healthy amount of drones?

very easy to do lvl3s in a megathron. in fact; setup right, you really dont need to turn on your armor repair ;-)
not 100% sure if this fits without a reactor control unit but i think it should
7x large blaster of your choice
1x tractor beam or drone link augmenter (the +20km drone control range one)
1x 100MN named afterburner for moving to places and accel gates faster OR 1x Sensor Booster 2 (for locking things faster)
2x target painter
1x 90% web
1x Large armor repair (doesnt matter at all if it is named or not)
3x racial hardener OR 2x adaptive nano and 1xdamage control unit
2x magnetic field stabilizer II
1x whatever the heck you want (I advise 1 WCS just for the "in before the nerf" cool factor  )
if you use medium drones and let them take care of the frigs while you target paint the cruisers and kill them, the limiting factor for your mission running will be moving from acceleration gate to acceleration gate :-)
if you are fighting angels, dump the 2x adaptive 1x dmg control for 2x explosive 1x large armor repair
Best of luck!

i successfully completed (highsec) missions in a mega. istarted off usingblasters then moved on to 350mm as they did better overall.
cant remember exactsetup butsomething like-
7x 350mm proto rails (compressed or scout ok)
1 cruise launcher
100mn ab (gisti if poss , relatively cheap and much better thant1/t2)
t2 trackingcomp (or maybe 2)
2xcap rechargers
1 large rept2
1med rep t2
3 xspecific passive armourplates t2 /faction (db/tsaround 15mill each)
cpr / mag stabs
usemed drones
worked pretty well and did good damage (even withthe 2.5 millcommanders)
however i got pretty goodgunnery skills.
