For a ship that is alledgedly the only Minmatar BS worth bothering with in PvP very little actually seems to get written here about setups. This suggests 2 things, either nobody really flies cos it is actually a pile of shite and the people saying it isnt are trying to block a possible buff OR the setups people use are so awesome noone wants to share them.
So i thought i'd post the setup I'm about to put together and probably get blown up and see if anyone has any comments:
4x Siege II w/ CN Torps 3x Heavy Unstable Neut
100MN MWD II, Medium Injector II, J5 Warp Disrupter, Fleeting Web
3x 1600RT, 2x EANM II, DCU II, BCU II
3x Trimark
CPU is ridiculously tight hence the named EWAR, tech2 somply wont fit.
Comes in at 133K (depending on skills) EHP and 750 ish DPS. I get 745 (I think) with Minnie BS4 and Siege spec 4 and 5x Ogre II. The Injector provides enough cap to run 2 of the Neuts forever with ease, and although EFT claims it can actually support all 3 at 36% cap I wouldnt wanna try it. A few seconds of lag and you're capped out and in serious trouble.
So, its DPS isnt awful, not quite the same level as your average gank BS but the 3 Neuts should more than make up for it. It's EHP is pretty good though, particularly for a tier one and thanks in no small part to only fitting one damage mod.
My other idea for a fit was to drop the BCU for another plate, and bin the neuts off for 4x D650II. Also allows you to drop the injector for a painter and use Rage Torps for a bit more DPS. A setup like that comes in at 155K or more EHP and between 900 and 950 DPS.
So, what y'all reckon?

I think it'll handle like a brick and doesn't have enough gank.

Well, with less plates it not got enough toughness, and cos of the stupid split weapons getting it up to say Geddon levels of gank requires like 3 or 4 damage mods.
Whereas i was kinda hoping that having 3 heavy neuts and a still reasonable amount of DPS would be enough to swing things in favour of the Trash Can.
Still, no-ones posted an improvement which is leading me to believe that the much hyped Typhoon is actually a bit shit.

LMAO, did you not notice the three plates and three trimarks? There's a difference between "handles like a cruiser", "handles like a battleship", "handles like a fat slow battleship", and "handles like a brick".

Handle like a brick it may well do.
However, how many geddons, apocs, abadonns, domis and megas run 2 or 3 plates and 3 trimarks?
Most i suspect.
And it does at least have the ability to project all its damage out to max warp disrupter range. 25km on the Neuts, 30 odd on Javelins and the drones will get there eventually. I guess my point is that the ship doesnt actually rely on being in web range or kiting or whatever to do pretty much all the damage its capable of to a target.
Though i supose neither do stupid Megapulse amarr pwnmobiles with their silly Scorch ammo.
In fact, on reflection its only the dumb-ass Megathron that ends up being big and heavy AND having to get to 3km to do any damage. Stupid Gallente.
