¶ Summary
The Maller's armor resist and medium laser damage bonuses suit it for "heavy tackle" roles, in which it holds the enemy down to relieve lighter tackle that do not have the tank to withstand damage for long. It can also perform well as a brawling damage-dealing ship, especially if supported by logistics ships such as its sibling the Augoror.
Thanks to its tanking potential, the Maller has often been used as a bait ship, getting enemies to aggress on gates or stations so that its allies can catch them. Its only substantial drawback in this role is its obviousness, and foes might be more willing to engage less well-tanked but less notorious bait ships.

¶ Tactics
Some kind of tackle module must go in the mid slots, and with only two other slots available there is a trade-off to be made between propulsion, dual propulsion, dual tackle (i.e. point and scram), and a web.
One or two Nosferatus in the high slots provide some help against enemies with neuts.
