Summary
The Maulus is the Gallente EWAR frigate, and has bonuses to sensor dampening. It has 4 mid and 3 low slots, plus a larger-than-normal drone bay. The Maulus can be fit with 3 damps and a propulsion module in the mids, with a small armor tank, damage control and a speed module in the lows. Performance can be enhanced by using scripts.

- These are force multipliers in a fleet. Stay far off the fight, like 50+km. No need to tech2 fit anything.
- Range damp the enemy logi and ewar that is far away.
- Scan Res damp enemy logi that are in close to their fleet.
- Warp off anytime you get redboxed.
- The drones are just to whore on killmails, don't worry about them.

- Great for armor frig/dessie roams. Stay with your logi, apply damps to enemy logi and follow the primary with your drones/rails.
- If fighting a cruiser or larger, scan res damps will really mess up their day.
- Switch out the MWD for an AB if its an AB fleet.
- Switch out one of the damps for a Warp Disruptor II if your fleet needs more points.
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 too 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.
