FoolishMistress

Im looking at a setup for either matar or amarr gun based POS (low sec), with ability to ward off a few Bs and smaller ships (obviously dreads will waste it no worries). Will be used as a safe spot and possible cyno jump in spot in a system regularly patrolled with cruiser/battleship gangs of small to med size who are hostile to me (well everyone).
Give me some ideas please and also about correct ammo and ranges etc. I know where to place the guns :o

I won't comment on guns(laser)/ammo but would recommend a Medium Ammar faction tower with shield hardners(6) and a selection of dampeners and webby stuff......this also means less often trips with fuel

No matter what you put on it, a small POS will get roasted by any medium size BS fleet (10 upwards). No one with any sense will try and take out a POS with insufficient numbers.
This is not directed at you FoolishMistress but in general to anyone and everyone who asks about setups.
It doesn't matter what you fit, if the enemy wants to destroy your POS it will counter whatever set up you have. The ONLY thing that will save your POS is you and what defense you can muster in the way of ships to counter the enemy.
I wish we could post that at the top of the forum (not as a post but as text).

I would suggest at least a medium domination tower with 1 disruptor, 1 domination webifier, (or 2 non-faction ones) 4 medium artillery and 4 small autocannons. Fill the rest with ewar and utility structures such as a hanger and maint. array. This is a minimum, but that's all you really need for a safespot POS. The goal is to be able to defend your cyno-in point from random roving bs/cruiser gangs. Obviously if there is a cap fleet in the system you shouldn't be jumping in alone in the first place. :)
As far as ammo, a good mix is to use 50% EMP and 50% Fusion, (I use faction ammo, it's pretty cheap) which gives you an even damage spread, but you might be better off with just all EMP as EM is usually the weakest resist in a pvp ship and your goal is not to resist a long siege anyway. As always, controlling the guns is a must if you are defending against multiple ships, so don't anchor more guns than you can control and always control at least one Ewar array so you can break point if someone tackles/webs your cap ship.

He's not trying to defend it against a serious attack, just keep his cap ship safe when cynoing into the system.

Above posted minny one is quite good.
Amarr one I would use for listed purpose would be
small amarr tower
3x small pulse
3x small AC
2x small artillery
4x cruise missiles
7x ECM batteries
1x warp disruptor battery
2x stasis web batteries
2x warp scrambling batteries
1x sensor dampener battery
No fancy faction stuff (or perhaps tower if you find one cheap) as it's kinda throw away stuff anyway. Just to keep guys who would like to gank your cyno alt away and cut your ship free should it get jumped by few gankers who happen to be in local. If you get tackled and can't escape in reasonable time tho it would not save you from organized gang.
