As a nobody in this game without mases of SP, how would the pros out there advise I have fun when the the other team has 3 madrugers and 2 pythons?
With some teamwork we almost popped one before it ran. But the others anhialated us.
Tried some tanks myself but didn't get out my red line.
Worried this Militia tank spam is maturing into Madruger tank spam... :( |

Gal/Min light frame(STD), RE's(lvl1) & AV grenades(I suggest lvl2 for Packed AV, but lvl1 AV grenades will do). With this very cheap fit(Isk & SP wise) you can solo a tank. Stay out of line of sight, sneak up & plant the explosives(rear is the most effective). Toss you AV grenades, trigger your RE's & watch the fireworks. It take a little practice, but it's always satisfying to solo a tank in a scout suit. |

get into a logi suit for the equipment slots, grab a nanohive, remote explosives and proximity mines. Grenade AV. If can spare a low slot for a profile dampener is nice.
if its an amarr logi you can use a swarm in the weapon slot and a sidearm of choice. Otherwise probably forget the swarm launcher.
how you go about it from there is up to you.. but you are looking to do as much burst/alpha damage as possible, speed tanking the turret if you need to...
use the nano hive to replenish your bombs and grenades and throwing the prox mines down where you think the tank might try to escape.
flanking, shadowing or laying in ambush till just after the 'shiny' resist mods go off is probably best....
no guarantee's.. just a few ideas...

Nice initiative, Mortedeamor, I think I'll tag for that channel.
DTOracle and Billi Gene, has nice approaches that I've not yet tried out. Usually go with either PE or RE, since I'm a Scout user.
Also are the AV Nades more effective then the Flux, first draining the shield and going for the Armor with the RE's?
When I go for AV I'm using a Skinweave Heavy with a DAU Assaullt Forge and Complex Damage Module, I think it costs ~20k ISK. And if you're not able to use a Skinweave the Basic Heavy Frame goes for ~9k ISK. So a quite effective AV fitting for a small investment in SP and cheap in ISK.
Also it's not completely defenseless versus infantry, if you learn how to handle the Forge, you'd pose a serious threat to even PRO suits. If you snipe a few then they'll know you can handle your gun and also slap a SMG or something on that for the CQC moments. But you'll mainly be an AV toon this way, but on occasion you have to handle your own with infantry or angry drivers that jump out of their vehicles.
Use the environment to your advantage, high ground with a good view in most directions, something to hide behind(even the smallest hill can be used to outmanuever vehicles), keep an eye out for Supply Depots and/or Nanohives in your vicinity.
And remember to have a blast! |

In theory Flux grenades would be better. But in practice I find that tanks can easily avoid the flux explosion, where as AV will home in on the tank, guaranteeing damage. Which is why I suggest Packed AV over Std for additional alpha damage against shield tanks. |

Thanks all for the replies. I'll give some of it a go.
Not being able to scratch a hardened Madruger whilst it sits killing all around is no fun whatsoever. When there's 2+ of them... |
