Passive tanked drake, not even that expensive a set up either, will sit there and take damage from 3 cruise launchers all day, but i suppose if they have other people warp in and start firing you'd be screwed....
I doubt that a Drake could tank Caldari Cruise Missile Batteries given the bonuses. Have you actually tried it or is that an assumption?

So what system is this in, because now I'm really curious if I can tank 3 cruise missiles from a missile battery every 24 seconds!

Well I assume it's a Caldari Control Tower so don't forget about its bonus. Any if it was my POS there wouldn't be just 1 battery.

Buy all the POS fuel they need within 3-4 jumps of their POS. Then camp the route they have to take to get POS fuel, and blow up their haulers. Fit a lot of warp scramblers in case they use transport ships!

to the OP:
i took a look on your corp ... well... i think with that member count you prolly die of boredom if you wanna plan on taking the pos down.
mind me, ive only been involved in the premature closedown of 2 posses so far, and im clearly not dying to do it again, because i failed to see the fun behind that.
anyway... "economic terrorism" might be the way to go. (you clearly know more about pos mechanix than i do  )
if i were you, id try the following:
take some ship with tanking bonuses, resists preferred. cruiser sized should do i think. fit it t1, tank it up like mad, damage is secondary. insure it.
IF warp stabs help against the warp scrambling batteries, grab some.
warp in, sit there, tank it as long as you can, stay aligned, and get out before the proverbial p00p00 hits the fan.
that is how I would do it, given the stuff i learned in this thread. id be glad if somebody could work through my ideas, and cleared up my mistakes and if's.
if you want to do it with style, pursuit the plans that aim on preventing them from getting ice. that's just... cool.

Why don't you just hunt down the industrial corp ships?And try to blockade their supplies?
It would be more effective just to let them have their POS into reinforce and then vulnerable than to attack the POS directly.

you're going to have to take out their logistics, cuz you're not gonna take down the 12m or w/e it is shields that a tower has w/o a dread. I was bored a couple weeks ago, so I went on the test server and attacked a small *OFFLINE* pos for about 5 hours using Rage torpedoes and dmg mods. I was doing about 1000 dmg per torp x6, @9.x sec rof and I barely dented the shields. I ran out of ammo and patience, so I left.
If the POS really does only have 3 cruise launchers, you can blob it with 20-30 bs's and permatank them, but you're going to be there forever... Chances are that they'll send in some sort of response to defend their tower (if they don't, let me know, i'd like to meet these guys).

I'd be quite embarrassed if I were in a pirate corp that hired mercs to take out carebears.

That's really poor defense for a pos. I can imagine a lot of ships that could easily tank 3 POS cruise missile batteries even with tower bonuses.

You can just about tank one cruise battery in a shuttle. I think finding something to tank three shouldn't be too hard

Yeah but shuttles have a really good tank that's why you assign fighters to them.

If you want to mess with them and still make some money, set buy orders in stations for REALLY low prices, like buy orders for ice at 500 ISK per unit, and the same for POS fuel. Then do what was suggested earlier, buy all of the ice and POS fuel within a few jumps thats of a decent price an then sell it in thier homesystem for like a 500% mark up. THEN start hitting thier transports and ice mining, if they want to keep the POS going, they'll have to buy the extremley overpriced pos fuel and ice from your alt (yeah, use an alt) and have the alt pretend to be helping by giving them a discount down to 450% :) In anycase, it'll sap thier supply budget slowly into your wallet (esp if they take it personal and want the POS to just **** you off) and the hits you make on thier ops and transports will be of much greater damage. Also, tank the POS best you can to still increase the need for fuel. Eventually they will fall under the pressure of thier own needs. Done and done.

It is an amarr med tower with 3 cruise launchers awarpdisruptor battery a web battery and research stations.
It is in Maalna VI moon 11. There is only 3 people in my corp we do not have the resources to blow it up. So if any of u fine ladies and gentleman get bored come on by. I would love the company because the industrial corp does not talk to me anymore .

As for their setup... wow. You might not have to do anything at all, surely people of this 'caliber' will implode shortly.

God, you'd barely have to breath at that thing to kill it. My *small* POS has a much better defense than that.

I have found one even weaker...no web...I am going to destroy it if I can, but I'm not really sure how as I know nothing about POSes.

Ok, just to clear it all up with you nubs out there STILL posting when you know nothing abouts POS's, You CAN NOT touch anything inside the POS (exception of the previously mentioned capital move) until the shield is blown, and that has 20 MILLION hp. So unless you have a massive collection of dreads you ARE NOT going to drop a pos. In which case (since i have 2 days of reinforced fuel inside) you're going to get bored IF we dont pawn ur noob dread fleet first. Oh btw, just an update for Indigo's attempt (and the comment on tanking a POS with one cruiser because of the sig. or anything smaller) Indigo decided to be smart and pop in with a claw... yeah that was a nice kill mail...
P.S. Im so sick of nubs...

I dont know if you guys are smart enogh to know this but Spamming a POS with ships and making it shoot at you does not make it burn more fuel. A POS burns the same amount of fuel allways unless you add a structer (takes up more Liquid Ozone and Heavy Water) or take one down (burns less) Also for you fools out there who think you can snipe a POS down in a BS I will tell you this. It take a fleet of 8 Dreds 4 hours to take down a Medium POS. Now even if you where to jump in 16 BS it would take 18+ hours... And Me being the person who sent in the Petition about the Spaming of the POS- Indigo if you are found dieing more then 3 times in one 24 hours period by the POS you will find your self banned.
So have fun with this stupid thread.

You know, Indigo, I'm not really liking the personality of this corp you're dealing with.
I'd fund hiring some mercs to kill their POS and drive them out with repeated poddings, if it were worth my ISK. When I get that lucky loot that hopefully lies in my future I might consider it.

Ok i read some of the peoples replies to this thread and you all honestly dont do your research do you? 1 dread wont do it, 30 bs wont do it, and if by some miracle you manage to get enough dreads together we will take them as a snack and enjoy looting and salvaging the wrecks. Im not a carebear nor is anyone else in my corp, i will make a bowl out of ur skull and eat your liver out of it. Do your research nubs.

I dunno what crappy dreads you've used, but I watched with my own eyes while 3 alliance mates in dreads took down a medium POS in 30 minutes.
By the way, glad to see you joined a BoB-pet alliance...too bad they're a huge bunch of mining carebears.
If you guys had the funds, I'm sure I could find some people willing to come down and blow it up. Wouldn't be the first time that bad smacktalk brought our Dreads to low-sec.

Actually with some time and patience you could blow up a medium tower. A medium sized group of battleships can kill a small pos tower in a few hours, a medium would take a good while longer, especially with just 3 battleships. But it could be done with a free evening to spend and a little bit of fore-thought in your ship setups (bit of health increasing modules, remote health supporting modules and drones (depending on tank), damage increase modules).
