A catalyst has 650 DPS with heat. Unless you actually need the range there is no destroyer that will beat that.

Well, in this case one has consider lack of non-missile skills :(
Btw, any ideas about exact CONCORD mechanics - do they get angry when I attack or when first damage lands - considering flight time of missiles, it might be beneficial to attack from long range if they react on damage.
And let's say (of course purely theoretically Twisted ) that I target miners (what else, poor bastards), I guess exhumer is far too tough to bring down with 2 - 3 destroyers? But barge might be good target, right?

It used to be the aggression would begin upon the missiles striking the target, but that made it possible for stealth bombers to get up to the same speed as their torps, so they could approach the target while firing, having all the torps hit at once. Since then they have changed it to upon firing.

I killed over 100 exhumers both macks and hulks with just 2 destroyers after the changes. 3 well fit cats should be able to kill almost all hulks and macks. Skiffs are another story tho.

So far, all the killmails I've seen in null with Ventures on them had the Ventures on the surviving side.

So far, this is the only screenshot I've seen from low: http://i.imgur.com/JiiKQ.jpg

I'm sure more will come along as time goes by.
