Battle Ventures

The Golden Horde are Blaster MWD Punishers. They take advantage of the Punisher’s natural resist bonus, and huge amount of low slots to fit a frankly ridiculous armor tank. A well skilled Punisher has by far the highest EHP of any T1 frigate, and is on a par with most T2 frigates (for around a fifth of the cost). Due to the high resists, they also catch reps exceptionally well. With a good Logi wing, the Golden Horde can punch well above its weight.

As the Punisher has no damage bonus to a particular weapons type (only a capacitor bonus for lasers) it can be fitted effectively with any weapons system. This doctrine uses Neutron Blasters for the highest possible close range DPS of any weapons system. Four turret slots mean the overall DPS exceeds even Magic Merlins.

Implementation

Your basic strategy is to use the MWD to get into range, using Null ammo for mid-ranged damage, then once scrams/webs are applied to your opponent, orbit at 500m, deactivate the MWD (to reduce signature radius) and switch to short range Void ammo for max DPS.

The Punisher’s main weakness is its speed. With the Microwarpdrive it can catch almost anything Battlecruiser and above, but fast nano-kiting Cruisers and smaller will still be able to pull range if not scrammed immediately. Watch your opponent’s speed and disengage if he’s kiting you.

The second weakness is that it only has two mid-slots. One is always used for the MWD, while the second can hold either a Warp Scrambler, or a Web. Your fleet needs both, so make sure you have your fleet swap modules around to ensure a good spread of both.

Fleet Composition

3:1 ratio of DD to Logi is ideal

Tackle frigates need to have scrams fitted (as well as the usual warp disrupter) to try and help slow down anything moving fast

ECM is the preferred EWAR, although any EWAR will help

An Armor Command Destroyer offers huge flexibility with the MJD, while Command Bursts can give push the already high tank even higher, however it is an extremely expensive addition to an otherwise very cheap doctrine
