We want to fly C4 Sites in a Wormhole
We have flown C4 Sites with 2 Basiliks and a Nightmare without any Problems.
Now we have 2 new Scimatar Pilots. Is it possible to fly a C4 With 2 Scims and a Nighmare?
I think we have big Problems with ne Neuting issue. Is is enogh to use 1 medium energy tranfer on every Scim?

If you're at all worried about neuting, use Basis instead of Scimis. The Scimi is hard enough to get cap stable without neuting (and every now and then the Basis can send the NM some cap too if it needs it).

the Basi Pilots aren't always online. If we can fly C4 with your Scims, we can make more C4 sites.
Maybe if we are more experienced, we can use tracking links to kill the sleeper faster.

2 NM, 1 basilisk, if you're flying C4 with 2 logis, you're doing it wrong

Who's repairing the logistics ship when it gets shot?

We ran our C4s with two-ship DPS fleets, no reppers / logis, and a 7-link uber fleet boost vulture. We used a rattlesnake and a tengu for DPS, and kited the very-nasty spawns.

I'm not sure how keen I'd be to use logis, as I can't imagine them lasting long when the sleepers scram and aggro them.

A lot of ppl prefer remote repping fleets with the DPS ships also repping one another. Tengu get used a lot for that.

I guess I am almost a 'vet' by now. Hopefully not too bitter and managing to help more than I hinder. I build and sell many things, including large collections of bookmarks.

So its okay to use only one xcap Transfer to compensate the neuting?

and of course you need logis 5, fly whatefer combo you feel like, for repping bas, with sig tank, it only needs few heavy rep drone or 1 heavy shield rep. I've never had problem complete barrack or sanctum, though tbh command is the worst.
dont fit too much buffer on bas, it'll kill the sig tank, 1 LSE + 1 shield rig is enough
