Is there any reason ever to chose the Brutix over the Talos for small scale/solo fights?

Brutix can fit a tank and hit smaller ships better.

Only if you want to armour tank.

price, you can outfit a couple Brutix for the cost of a Talos and still have isk left over for some frigates to go out and fight in.

People who will run from a Talos may engage a Brutix.

Because dying to a frigate is embarassing.

The Brutix has a much larger tank, much better tracking, a bigger drone bay, and is a lot cheaper. It's also capable of armor tanking if that's your thing.

Talos is a kiting ship, Brutix is a brawler.

They're telling you Brutix has better tracking because you're fitting medium hybrids, Talos fits large ones, don't get confused.

Brutix - armor rep bonus and is much more suited for solo brawler PvP. Id take a good blaster Brutix anyday vs a blaster talos.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Brutix is a bit more of an all rounder - has some tank and can hit small stuff that will laugh at talos. Talos meanwhile is just a whizzing around glass cannon of death.
