Tactics
Choosing to fly a Maulus means a real dedication to electronic warfare in a PvP fleet. Damping the sensors of enemy ships is as or more effective than mitigating damage. Being able to tank incoming fire is never as effective as not taking any because the enemy simply can't lock on target!
The real power of Sensor Damps comes in fleet fights. Typically enemy logistics ships will be "at range" away from the fight so that your fleet cannot shoot at them. Applying Sensor Damps with Targeting Range scripts to those logi ships forces them to stay closer to the fight so that they can lock their fleetmates. Range Dampening other enemy ewar (like Blackbirds) is also highly effective, as they will usually be at range too. Scan Resolution scripts are great for Scan Res dampening enemy logi that are in close to the fight. These are usually very tanky ships (like Guardians), and Scan Res damps will slow the speed at which they can lock their fleetmates to rep them, giving your fleet a significant edge.
In a fleet don't try to fly solo. Try to remain close to your logi and damp out of the enemy. Keep your distance from the enemy! If you start seeing yellow boxes on your overview, align out. If they turn red, warp off and come back to the fight at range.
