I'm neutral to it all, I mean, I run 2 (soon 3 >.>) characters in missions, one tank, one Main damage, and soon a logistics for those missions that my tank just sucks to when at its best.
In my experience guristas are probably the easiest to tank, and 3 / 4 races main weapon systems damage is effective (EM not counted, though its not the worst rat to come up against) The only challenging thing about them is the ECM, but in my experience I've been non-stop jammed for up to 5 minutes at a time, got off two volleys (which in a nighthawk is about 10 seconds) and then I'm off to make food for another 5 minutes.
Its all about if you aggro too many HAC/Assault Frigates with your Battleships, which in some of the missions is inevitable.
My vote is, make Rats follow the same rules as players with ewar.

Qute happy here with the way NPC ecm works in missions. If anything make it harder. Force me to dither between damage mods and ECCM mods.
ECCM doesnt work, say it with me now, E-C-C-M Does Not Work, E-C-C-M Does Not Work.

K. Thats your problem. The Assault in not meant to be efficiently ran as a solo mission. Bring a friend or alt next time and you will have no issues with it. The giveaway for these types of missions is the 'We request that you gather a group of battle-harened pilots and take them on.' line that gets tossed into the briefing. You can solo them but your not going to do it in any reasonable amount of time.
Fair enough, although in this particular mission the person who tanks can expect to do little to nothing except sit there for an hour or two. However, EW NPCs are found in a variety of other missions offered by the Caldari Navy. I personally run CN missions because I want one of those CNR's.
Caldari navy are not the only ones to offer those, any caldari combat oriented corp does.
