Think we will ever see them? The current Barges/Exhumers are all technically Cruiser or Medium-sized. Since once you get into a Hulk or a Mackinaw you're pretty much done as far as training for pure mining ships go.

EDIT: Damn it, this was meant for the "Ships and Modules"-forum....

Space. It seems to go on and on forever. But then you get to the end and a gorilla starts throwing barrels at you.

Short answer: no, it won't happen. CCP has repeatedly said that the current set of miners is the biggest they intend on making.

I would like a Titan class mining ship, it would have an AoE doomsday device that only affected asteroids. Activate the doomsday once in a belt and said belt is in your cargo hold.

Sandboxes have walls, you know.

Frankly, I think the Covetor and Hulk should have been Large ships from the start.

Actually, I had another idea. What about Large industrials? More tank, bigger hold, longer train time. Maybe need Industrials V?
