That should not be in an industrial, it should be in a Gnosis with a shield tank, a couple cargo mods and a damage control in the lows, and medium energy neutralizers.

Because noone expects the hauler Gnosis, but it's actually pretty good at moving 1-5k m^3 loads that have value. You have the tank to survive one Talos or two Vexors. If you get Catalyst swarmed, you can neut some of them and have a decent chance.

I still haven't got my alliance to shoot Gnosises on sight yet, but when I get caught in one and end up with a hilarious lossmail, that may start.


You can in fact fit a magnate to carry 2000m3 or so. Stash it full with cargo expanders and cargo rigs, and you still have the speed of a frigate. Most gankers will have trouble locking it before it warps off, and you can fit mwd and cloak on it easily for extra security.
