Gallente battleships for Level 4 missions

Continuing on with my examination of sensible fits for running missions that I mentioned in A New Beginning and the rules I laid out in the Gallente Level 1 Missions blog post here are fits for Gallente battleships for Level 4 missions.

The Gallente have 3 T1 battleships suitable for running level 4 missions, the Dominix droneship, Megathron gunship and the Hyperion which I view as a hybrid gunship/droneship.  As with the Level 3 mission fits we are using T2 modules, T2 drones or T1 sentry drones and T1 rigs.

All 3 ships are armor tanked and all 3 also use Micro Jump Drives (MJD) to control distance.

In terms of dps the Hyperion > Dominix > Megathron.

In terms of tank the Dominix > Megathron > Hyperion.

The Megathron has a higher dps than the Dominix if you include the medium drones but honestly they are rarely used.

For ease of flying the order is in my opinion the same order as tanking.  All 3 use rat specific armor modules that need to be changed depending on the mission and are cap stable with the armor reppers off.

Edit 2015-10-12 use T2 sentry drones if you have them, fits updated, though I did the missions to date with T1 sentries.

Dominix
I ran 30 unique missions with the fit below including the Angel Extravaganza bonus room.  This is an easy ship to fly - just keep your distance.

Megathron
I ran 18 unique missions with the fit below including the Angel Extravaganza bonus room.  This is a more difficult ship to fly than the Dominix and suffers from damping effects of Serpentis rats - just keep your distance and have a range of charges including iron!

Hyperion
I ran 12 unique missions with the fit below but it hasn't been tested against the Angel Extravaganza bonus room yet.  This is the most difficult ship of the 3 to fly and suffers from damping effects of Serpentis rats - just keep your distance and have a range of charges including iron!
