I tried everything and found this fast to kill things, some argue lining my ships like that but i get all ships firing instead some I see with ships in the rear out of range.
Hey! That was my tactic! LMAO. Yes, nice tactic. I have a similar tactic but i use all rail2 on them.
Well, since i have no vid, so here's the details of killing the longs or even a vega carg 30.
-> Group the fleet into two equal separate groups which their role is decoy and killer but they may inter change simultaneously in case if you don't make it.
-> Back off further until all the 5 ships are dead.
-> Designate decoy use a left click click either side of the fleet making them into a single line. Strafe into the direction of the longs while pointing their weapons to the longs
-> Designate killer will charge as soon as the longs face them sideways (taking advantage of their slow turn rate) this also works on Vega Carg 30, the last 3 ships.
-> IF, you can't make it, designate decoy try to avoid all rail fire then charge.
Confirmed kill. If you are doing it right on longs, you should be taking no damage at all but maybe a few shields are struck. But for Vega Carg 30? Expect to lose a few frigates.
Specs of the frigates I use -> Rail 2, Plast 2/3 and Spec 2. Gives about 90 arm and 80 shield.
This is to take advantage of the slow turn rate of larger ships / slow ships.
Btw, I almost got caught for watching "something" while watching your vid...== lol
