So...
Assault vs Brick scout = Brick scout wins Brick scout vs EWAR scout = EWAR scout wins
That pretty much means EWAR scout > Assault.

I'm new to the scout frame, but it seems like a wasted opportunity to fit only tank modules. It's easy to play as a light assault that can either see everything (a few precision mods) or is invisible to everything (a few dampeners) without sacrificing much eHP.

Brick scouts have nerfed themselves. Okay, I'm getting pretty sick of this forum meme of "brick scouts nerfed themselves". They're not stupid or gimped, they just fill a very different role than ewar scouts. If you can't see that, you're blind. Yes, ewar scouts are basically the hard counter to bricked scouts, but that's the price they pay for being the ultimate assassin of heavies.
Brick scouts are the heavy/medium hunters. Full ewar scouts are much less effective at bringing down, say, a tanked proto Gal sentinel- it'll take 3 SG hits minimum, possibly 4, and the HMG only needs to connect for less than half a second to shred them. In contrast, brick scouts still have plenty of ewar compared to their heavier enemies, but can soak a few stray HMG shots, giving them a much better chance of bringing down big targets, especially ones with a modicum of aim and reaction speed.
The best, of course, is to strike a balance- my personal favorite is a 4x extender Cal scout with one damp and one range amp.

Only if the Dragonfly has the Gal Scout bonus. I'm not sure of that part as I don't have that BPO on my main. I can get my profile down to 8db which is unscannable by anyone. |

It doesn't work like that though.
Just knowing where the brick tank scout, or assault, or heavy doesn't mean the scout can engage.
EWAR scouts lose in all the above battles unless they can completely flank the enemy. Even then you have to kill them within 2 secs or they will turn around and destroy your measly 300hp.
EWAR scouts are great but let's not act like they are the fist breaking through fortifications. |

What people don't understand is that a 1000 hp assault suit blasting away at the enemy with a rifle standing with a group of friendlies is better than a 700 hp brick scout blasting away at the enemy with a rifle standing with a group of friendlies. |

Very much agreed. That EWAR scout should get the jump on the Assault every time through greater speed, better detection and lower scan profile. In addition the scout will share rather excellent data with its squad.
Meanwhile the Assault can... shoot things... but not really any better than anyone else.

Gal scout can see just as far, just not as well.

Pretty much. If all skills are equal a Calscout will not be able to see a GalScout regardless of how many Cpx Precision Enhancers are on. It takes 1 Cpx Profile Dampener + Cloak and Gal Scout are under EVERYONE's Radar (Including active scanners). 2 Cpx Profile Dampeners and the cloak becomes irrelevant, Gal Scout will not pop up on scans. Period.
Everyone else is fair game to the CalScout (excepting other scouts who must either fill their lows with PD or cloak to avoid CalScout Scans).

Brick scouts have nerfed themselves. No, Cal scout sees all and knows all, but I still prefer Gallente. Gal scout can see just as far, just not as well. I believe it geos both ways
double damped cal scout cannot seen by a double precision gal scout
double damped gal scout cannot be seen by a precision quad stacked cal scout

Makes for good Medium & Heavy assassination! I can see up to 80~ meters away on these suits running 2x Complex Range Amplifiers. Other Scouts it is iffy. I rely more on my eyes to spot other cloaked scouts(as it should be). |

eWAR Scouts make for excellent heavy assassins. Most of the targets HP is gone before they have a chance to turn around. There aren't many suits that can survive 4 SG blast. |
