Missioning setup

[Ughmahedhurtz]

OK, general strategery question for missions...

I currently have about 3mil skill points total on my guys, so keep that in mind. I'm running L3's now, and am up to about 4.6 faction rating with Caldari Navy, so I'll be able to pick up L4's before too long.

Current setup:
3x passive Drakes HML platforms (training for eventual Raven BS)
1x Noctis salvage ho (training for Orca/transports)

Now, I have a 5th account I've been training for hulks though I mine so little I've sorta been thinking about changing his training over to something like a Ferox medium railgun or laser boat for sniping frigates/cruisers. Basically, I have plenty of DPS with the 3 HML drakes but I'd like to have something that I could use instead of drones for those situations where I'm blowing through waves so fast that I'm getting drone aggro and keep having to recall/relaunch them rather than lose 'em.

Any thoughts? I'm thoroughly enjoying managing 4 ships in the missions, so adding a 5th won't be a factor in those terms. Just wondering what the best option for an anti-frigate/anti-interceptor gap-filler would be.

Cheers,
Ugh
