Ok, I was playing around in EFT prior to the Entosis links being released and was wondering if this kind of Loki fit could be useful in fozziesov to fit the trollceptor concept (below).

As is, with slaves and Quafe Zero, EFT calculates the velocity to about 3 km/s, even without, the speed is 2.3 km/s. It will be hard to catch, can sit at 240 km orbiting the structure, and can cloak and warp-off if bad things happen. It is cap stable with AB on, and costs under 400M.

You can add a wcs, but it drops the targetting range to 160 km, which is still viable. The 100MN AB does have the downside that it takes almost 30 seconds to align to warp out, which could be a problem in some situations.

Does any of this make sense? Any tweaks you can suggest?

Only problem is that you have to sit on grid until the timer runs out, which is quite awhile. And you need to get off multiple cycles before the reinforce happens. You cannot shut it down mid cycle or warp out, and there are many missile boats which can hit and Target out that far easily. Since you are not able to get reps, and can still suffer from all forms of Ewar you are an expensive target that cannot cloak, warp off, and can easily be killed within the cycle time of the t2 entosis link by any missile fleet. Seems like missile boats could become the new meta for defense fleets post Fozzie sov if people keep trying to 'uncatchable' troll fleets.

Not that great TBH. 3 km/s isn't really that fast, and it's got crap agility. Plus, the arties means you won't be hitting much close in. This will be murdered by the first interceptor gang it comes across.

100mn cruisers react very poorly to Gilas and bonused heavies.
