You're making a lot of assumptions there... You're assuming I'm not out farming him and that he's able to keep up with my player kills and that he is fighting me and only me. Usually after 4~5 wasted rockets people give up and do the 1~2 punch on someone else where they're guaranteed a kill then after their woundend I come in and do a little more damage and take them out.
Also I think swarm rockets are horrible for the HT I'd go with shorter range weapons... Lastly I'm not sure if I'd use fear magic to counter swarm rockets... I'd probably go with rocket hail... depending on how they use the swarmies.
Neither here nor there... don't really care if you buy it
I took out a HT with a fireball and short laser, then a medium laser, and lastly with a long laser and I was able to stick to my set up until I had 15k and sold the scout and the light hull and bought a demon + speed pack. I didn't have fear magic though... I went with lightning magic + upgrade. Just to be a b*tch vs. the short laser. One other thing you forget is that I can use the watch tower to draw fire and help tank so my 2k additional health goes even further. That and hugging CPs works well in conjunction with the defensive systems.
In either case... if you doubt it... try it and see if you like it. I did after I had a heck of a time killing a scout using tornado summoner and the Iron hull with my anti-grav tank and a glaive. I just couldn't farm enough to catch up to him. Then finally I fed off his allies and he quit when he realized he was the only one capable of watching the CPs. Also, he went heavy tank vs gold hull... I like the gold hull because the scout's skills are very useful to getting away and a gold hull on a demon tank is just ridiculous.
