What would a good set up be for a WH Thanatos??
Can the Fighters take on the Sleepers?

If you are using it in a class below C4, forget it and use some other ship to be more efficient. If you are using it in c4, you will lose fighters to sleepers. Pick any other carrier to do something useful, like repping other boats that can get rid of RR.
But if you must.. Fighers can take on sleepers. You need target painters though. But you will lose fighters..

Lots of RR usually, not much else more.

Put an omni-armour tank in the lows, TPs in the mids if your going with missile boats or tracking links for gun boats, and RR in the highs. I'd say sentry drones over fighters, you can pull them in if they start taking damage.

It depends upon your tactics:

Triage:
3 reps of choice and triage module, self rep, and enough cap to permarun 2 RR or the local tank. Removes the need for logi's and allows you to drop max dps on the site

Fighter Support:
1-2 RR, 3-4 DLA, self tank, enough cap to permarun either local or remote tank, sebo's and TP's in remaining slots. Use fighters to blast down battleship sized rats, sentries for cruiser, and light for frigate. Have someone sitting offgrid - if fighter starts taking damage, assign fighter to offgrid character. The fighter will warp off, preventing sleepers from killing it. Downside is that you may find yourself quite often with no fighters left on the field.

Sentry support:
Same as fighter, but only use sentries and rep others on the field. Recall sentries if they get primaried.

Conclusion, they work, but they work best as gigantic logi's to support the rest of the fleet.

I seem to recall it being hard to recall T1 sentries before they popped in a C5. Do T2 sentries have enough HP to survive the first volley if you have good reaction times?

Only useful carrier in a Wh is a triage carrier.
thus it should be fit like this:

Me personally would go with two carriers working together,

fit something in the order of 2 cap transfers and 3 rr fit your mediums and lows with what ever tank your going with and enugh cap mods to be stable .

I am partial to Armor tanks tho.

i have found the sleepers will primary ships rring over drones . dont know if this is true for fighters tho.

hope this helps.
