FCC Feroxes

The Rail Ferox is one of the most popular T1 fleet doctrines around currently, and a staple of Null Sec roaming fleets. A solid tank, good mobility, and decent damage make the Ferox a powerful all round fighter, but its real strength is its double range bonus, which lets it reach ranges of well over 100km with T2 ammunition. A Ferox fleet is largely unrivalled in its ability to snipe at 100km+, yet is also durable enough to survive being caught at shorter ranges, giving them a wide engagement envelope, and diverse tactical options
The Uni’s own FCC Feroxes were designed and chosen as a FCC Doctrine by the FCC candidates of 2017 |
Implementation
Feroxes shine best at range. That huge double range bonus lets them out-snipe the vast majority of comparable doctrines. Out of commonly used alternatives only the Cerberus, or sniper fit Battleships can realistically match the Ferox’s damage at range. In almost all circumstances therefore, your aim as FC is to start an engagement at range, and burn away from your opponent to allow you to snipe from range. Your speed is good for a Battlecruiser (around 1.2km/s unheated), and you can maintain range on most opponents for some time when starting at range like this
If caught in a close range scenario against an equal fleet (say, having jumped through a gate into a camping fleet), you would also anchor up on your anchor, and try to pull range. The Ferox has a good shield tank of around 70-80k EHP, however its DPS output cannot match similar doctrines such as Rail Brutix’s, so its best strategy remains to progressively pull range to take advantage of the Ferox’s natural strengths, while also maximizing your damage application as you do so, given the Ferox has no tracking bonus
It should be noted that the Ferox’s range bonuses are not only felt at the edge of the 100km range, but also at mid-ranges, where the Ferox can still employ high damage “short-range” ammunition up to impressive mid-ranges. Antimatter ammunition for instance is the highest damage T1 ammunition, and can be employed out to 30km with the Ferox, a range where most other doctrines would have been forced to switch to lower damage ammunition such as Tungsten
Due to the Ferox’s range strengths, T2 guns for Spike ammunition is extremely valuable, and all fleet members should strive for this. With T1 guns, Thorium ammunition can also reach 90km+ ranges with decent DPS however
Naturally, given the range of the Ferox, Null Sec is its natural home, combined with bubbles to keep an enemy fleet locked down while you apply from range
As with all T1 Battlecruiser doctrines, the combination of great hull bonuses, numerous turret slots, solid tanks, and medium sized weapons, mean that they can fight equally well against Cruisers or Battleships. You may have trouble applying damage to Destroyer or Frigate fleets, however unless you are heavily outnumbered, or lack Logistics support, its likely they won’t be able to apply enough damage to break your tank before you pick them off. This flexible engagement envelope across ship sizes is one of the biggest appeals of T1 Battlecruisers, and the Ferox here is no exception
Fleet Composition
Primary DD Fit
Some groups elect to drop the capacitor booster, and rely on good capacitor skills and good module management to carry a heavier shield tank instead. Given the Uni’s skillbase and the Ferox’s complete uselessness once its capacitor is dry, the FCC Ferox uses the cap booster varian
Command Bursts are invaluable for this doctrine, and the Ferox with its utility high slot can be fitted to include a T2 Command Burst. Use these selectively, as they do not stack, and you may prefer to include a dedicated Command Destroyer or Command Ship for this role due to their hull bonuses, however in small numbers, it can be more important to maximize Ferox numbers by having the Command Bursts carried on the Feroxes themselves
The priority for command bursts is Information Bursts to boost lock range, given your sniper tactics, however Shield tanking bursts, and Skirmish boosts for speed are all useful additions
Logi
Any MWD Cruiser Logi will have no issues keeping pace with the Feroxes, so the preference here is for BLAP Ospreys, both due to alignment with existing Uni BLAP doctrines, and also due to its slightly better tank compared to the Scythe

- If only training the base BLAP Logistics plan, Drones may not be usable.
- If both BLAP plans have been trained, Repair Drone Operation should be a minimal training investment.
Support Ships
Support ships are fairly standard – Interceptors for scouts, Interdictors for bubbles. A Huginn or two for long webs can be very useful for taking down smaller scouts or tackle trying to get under your guns
Should you wish to add a dedicated Command Burst ship rather than using the Feroxes themselves, a Command Ship is the optimum choice, with the Vulture the natural fit given its rail gun bonuses. However a Command Ship is an expensive and SP intensive option in a Uni fleet, and you may wish to dedicate the role to a Command Destroyer.
