Booyah! The battle iteron is born. Hold full of cap boosters for the ASB, drones, hefty shield tank and scram.
I'd have preferred to see a +10% warp speed per level if that was possible (instead of the cargo bonus), to give players a reason to train higher
And I'm quietly chuckling at the 50k m3 minerals bay. Suicide gank magnet in the making! I am looking forward to the mistakes people make with this ship!
Is the specialist ammo bay accessible by fleet? I guess you kinda answered that in your original post about "pushing the boundaries" but I figure it's worth asking :)
Thank you CCP Rise, these are genuinely exciting. I'm looking forward to seeing these ships on Tranquility. Amazing! Day 0 advice for new players: Day 0 Advice for New Players |

I would suggest that there is an obvious way to avoid the problem: remove mineral compression. Day 0 advice for new players: Day 0 Advice for New Players |

Every freighter, mining barge, exhumer, industrial capital ship and mining frigate would seem to disagree with you in terms of being "contradictory to the spirit of EVE".
And as far as technological sense: the ships that we lovingly call "Dolly Partons" are pretty specialised. Try carrying any standard cargo containers on those things. Not going to happen. You can carry a heck of a lot more gas on a Dolly Parton than a standard container ship. Then there are your typical supertankers, specifically designed to carry bulk crude oil. Then there are ships specially designed to carry bulk grain. A specialised ship can perform its task better than a generalist ship.
These modified industrials are capable of mounting some kind of offensive modules, and you have rig slots. There's nothing stopping you fitting a battle-Miasma GÇö it's got enough PG to fit a MWD, what you can do with that is up to your imagination. Of course you'll need an "all-5s" pilot to fit an MWD and keep it running longer than a minute. Day 0 advice for new players: Day 0 Advice for New Players |

So far I've managed to get almost two minutes of MWD out of the Miasmos. That's great for sprints into mission spaces where the belts are 40-60km from the entry point. Now to abuse the living daylights out of it until CCP decide to take all the nice ores away from mission spaces
