I tried the brawling Snake first and it was fun for sure.

Use the Mach for my brawling fix. Different strokes and all that.



I'm lazy, I set my 'Snake to orbit the gecko and use FoF missiles. The "Snake lands in a mission, I pop uot the drone, start the missiles and watch the damn thing auto clean the entire room lol. All the joys of afk mission running, while not actually afk Cool

That's pretty silly. Definitely gonna have to try that some time lol.

I actually do it all the time in null doing anomalies, with an After Burner/Heavy FoF missile Gila. Launch the drones, set approach on one of the drones and start FoF missiles.

It means the Gila is hugging whatever npc is the current drone target, and since the FoF missiles hit the closest npc, it means that the Gila is concentrating fire on what ever npc it's attacking.

Its clever. It also seems like it would be pretty fun. My big objection to a RHML snake was always how slow it was and brawling seemed like it was silly. Honestly why not just use a mach? Yet the total low effort/ease combined with cheap uber coolness...

This is what I love about eve. SOMEONE has always figured out the easiest fastest way to do anything. This is good cos the easiest way is also the least tiring, most economical and (usually) the safest.
