I cannot decide between a dickstar or deathstar or if these are the only "setups" that are worthwhile. Any recommendation or tips for setting a pos up in a C4?

Dickstar is best for lower level WH's. I like resiststar for higher level ones (best though is to have the mods out to switch between resiststar, dickstar, and deathstar, just by offlining/onlining mods)

This, assuming you can afford everything and can move it in eventually, anchor the **** out of stuff. Then you can switch virtually on the fly when responding to attack

A D*ckstar is better if you don't have the numbers to man a Deathstar's guns. The jammers are very popular with defenders, and unpopular with attackers. I've seen POSes with extreme numbers of jammers. That said if the opposition brings a Dread jammers won't help, and Deathstars aren't much good either.

As long as you're not moving into an occupied C4 or under, you probably won't have to worry about capital ships. In a C4/C2 I'd say a strong d*ckstar is probably a good deterrent, but I'd anchor a few guns too if you have any POS gunners. Your best defense is having defenders; if somebody really wants you dead they'll just take your tower down. That being said, C4/C2s are not a very desired wormhole type, and a Large Control Tower in any C4 or under is usually too much trouble to bother shooting.

ECM ftw. Every POS can be destroyed without a defensive fleet given enough time, so make it as painful as possible. People will think thrice before spending days of siege.

Odyssey: Repacking in POS hangars for modules +1,  but please for other stuff too, especially containers. Make containers openable in POS hangars.
