Hi i just got my orca after the long wait i found out it cant equip stripminers only mining links and i was wondering why if you want to mine with an orca (high reward high risk) why cant you it is an ORE industriel Comand shipif say you want two links and a stripminer or 3 of em i think we should be allowed or make a new type of strip miner spesificly for the ore command ships i would train like 20 days to get tech 1 and a further like 40 for tech two i just thought it would be a good idea make a choise between high yield for other ships or just mine yourself it would vastly help small corps that have few miners just a thought and hopefully it is a likeable idea

Some people need to learn what punctuation is.

It's an Industrial Command Ship. Meaning it provides support for miners. And no... we don't need more AFK type ships... especially ones that can field a 200+k EHP tank.

So you didn't read the description of the ship.

Also: No.

Thank you.

Put a Mackinaw in the Orca's ship maintenance bay, go to the belt, eject the Mack, hop out of your Orca and into the Mack and mine away until the Orca is full.

Oh, and tell me what system you choose to do this in, and what time you'll be there.

This. Also:

You trained for a ship before figuring out what it can and can not do?

Double fail.

It can't be fine if it's not there in the first place.

As for the suggestion : Uhm.....no.

CCP, I also want to know why I can't use mining drones with my super carrier. If I want to mine with my super, I should at least be able to field mining drones. I feel for you brother, hit me up and maybe we can get together and mine ABC's one day.

+1 for this guys post and concerns. They seem legit.
