I'm going to buy a Megathron (Should I save for Hyperion?). Online loadouts always indicate a Sniperthron or Blasterthron. I run lvl 3 missions and want to know if I can go somewhere between the two types. I've used railguns in my previous ships, including my current Brutix.
So there's the question. Do I absolutely have to pick a sniper or a blaster type? Or can I still shape the ship somewhere in between?
Thanks, and watch out for my followup questions

Don't use a Megathron in L3 missions. Use the Brutix. Brutix cleares L3 faster than a Megathron as it has the right sized guns for L3: You'll face medium sized targets and a lot of frigs in L3 missions which large guns have a hard time to track.
I'd use a Megathron only for solo in L4 and it uses a lots of skills as the missions still have many many cruiser and smaller ships. You might consider a Dominix for L4 even if you can only handle a set of 5 t1 drones. It is much more flexible vs the different target sizes.
If you really want to use it try a rail setup without range enhancers. That should give you room for tank.

Thanks
How about I use a Megathron with Medium weapons? Better tanking, better cap? Silly idea really.
Otherwise, I'll stick with the Brutix. How difficult are Lvl4 missions? I qualify now, but am scared to try :)

Problem with using the Mega with mediums is you hurt your DPS |

It doesn't get the damage/tracking bonus then and will move rather slow compared to the npcs in a lvl 3. |
