Thx for the suggestions! I am having a great time at the moment. Tackled my first lvl4 missions (Enemies Abound) yesterday.
At the moment I am settling for manually flying my logi @60 km behind my fleet. If a pesky frigate/cruiser comes near the logi, its easier for me to kill them, when they are far behind and flying in a straight line, rather then flying all around me.
