Support
Support ships in small gang fill in 2 primary roles;
Damps: are a necessity for small gang, the secondary damage mitigation after range control. As a rule of thumb, 2 bonused damps with good skills will lock a T1 cruiser to a targeting range of less than 20k, a HAC or battleship to around 30k and a frigate or destroyer to 10k.
One or two properly flown damping ships can pretty much lock a fleet's ewar, logi or long range DPS out, making it easier for his friends to get closer and get kills.
Chessur's Damp guide (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pxo6YO5A08k) is a master class.
Long Range Webs: are a great asset to a gang. They can be used on the primary to improve damage application or defensively to slow down enemies burning in for a fleet. They're especially effective against tacklers who can be popped very quickly bu anti-support when double webbed.
