Pointless Fit for Fun

Starwalker rarely ever flew without a point or scrambler but another Rebel suggested that a Merlin fit with dual webs and a medium ancillary shield booster was a lot of fun. More than that, the intended victim rarely ever noticed that they could simply warp away at any time. So in the interest of flying a pointless fit ship for fun he fitted a Merlin:

[Merlin, AB2WMASB]

Magnetic Field Stabilizer II
Magnetic Field Stabilizer II
Pseudoelectron Containment Field I
1MN Afterburner II
'Langour' Drive Disruptor I
'Langour' Drive Disruptor I
Medium Ancillary Shield Booster, Navy Cap Booster 50

Light Neutron Blaster II, Void S
Light Neutron Blaster II, Void S
Light Neutron Blaster II, Void S

Small Hybrid Burst Aerator I
Small Ancillary Current Router I
Small Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I

The original fit suggested was slightly different based on the fact that they had genolution implants and consequently a little more fitting room. In short, Starwalker had replaced the thermal resistance rig for a current router, down graded the webs and used a damage control instead of an overdrive injector.

Starwalker got three kills where the victim stayed and died:

1. This Atron pilot came in close and was simply hammered
2. The Tormentor put up more of a fight by trying to establish some range but it was held close and decimated
3. The Republic Fleet Firetail was a trickier proposition. Artillery fits were common and that would pose a problem. However, Starwalker engaged anyway to see what would happen and this pilot chose to orbit close with an auto-cannon fit. In the straight up brawl that followed the Firetail lost

Emboldened by the success of the last engagement with a Firetail Starwalker engaged the next one too at the warp-in to a plex. This time the Firetail scuttled away despite the two webs being applied and Starwallker knew that it was MWD fit and without the MWD being scrambled there was no way he could get close. Inevitably the Firetail was fit for artillery and it was not long before the brave Merlin was destroyed. 

Whilst Starwalker liked the sheer firepower of this Merlin he also liked to be able to scramble a ship. It was a fun ship but it was a fit that he would put back into his box of tricks for use on the right occasion such as in a gang when someone else had the scramble applied.
