The title says.

Is there a Tech 1 Cruiser that can take down some Interceptors / Assault Ships. That has a fair chance.
My intention is to let them engage me. I'm skilled in gallente but can fly the other Tech 1 Cruisers poorly fitted also, no skill for tech 2 guns except blasters and rails.
I would like to at least get them into structure before they warp away.Better would be kill them.


Any advice is welcome.

Webbed Vexor with T2 Drones. Since you already have gallente skills. Small guns if you have to for tracking.

Any "underfit" (small turrets/assault missiles) T1 cruiser with a neut will work well.

Many frigs will engage relatively unknown T1 Cruisers over a better anti-frig platform like the Vexor or AML Caracl.

My favorite:

[Celestis, Kessiaan-esque]
Damage Control II
1600mm Reinforced Rolled Tungsten Plates I
Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane II

Experimental 10MN MicroWarpdrive I
Warp Scrambler II
Stasis Webifier II

Use 150mm rails+Warriors, or have backup a couple jumps away if you are baiting in a belt. Inties with long points are a painful death.

Vexor with a 1600mm plate works nicely.

Plated rupture with falloff. Will shred frigs holding orbit, and with some small neuts it will slam close range frigs too.

Somethign like this:

Tracking Enhancer II

Any cruiser that can fit two webs plus scram.
