Why does the bowhead take Capital Class Rigs but can’t fit any Capital Class Modules? CCP give the Bowhead Capital Class Modules or Large Size Rigs. ---

It’s fine the way it is. Related news; I once showed my bowhead to the Princess. /Actually we should ask @Mike_Azariah as I believe it was his greatness that got us all the Bowhead in the first place with all the work he had put in as CSM (Correct me if I am wrong) ---

I’m pretty sure the Bowhead was introduced to allow incursion runners to move their ships around with rigs fitted. In any case a Bowhead cannot get into c1-4 wormhole space, while an Orca can. ---

I don’t know about ‘greatness’ but yeah I pushed that ship through for the Incursion folks. and as said, above, it was a matter of cornering the right dev in a bar after a summit meeting and pitching my case. He was shocked when I agreed to it being a ‘big fat target with no guns’ m ---

The Bowhead is the perfect canvas for advertising. Its hull just begs for a big screen to be attached to it. Imagine this beautiful ship roaming through systems, showing the recruitment video of a corp (or making fun of your arch enemies, or promoting a CSM candidate). I know, it’s science fiction, but still… [![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/7/c/9/7c98b50338c43b692b96666897923ff7bfe14908.jpeg "Blade Runner Blimp") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2jvf_6wap8) 🤓 ---

> [@Brun\_Warbear](#): > > I’m sure orcas with 2 million HP wont upset any balance in high sec. Sounds like the one more ganking fix that this game desperately needs! It’s basically like a race to make Hawk and Kusion need so many accounts to gank a single carebear that their hardware starts tripping the circuit breaker. ---

And thus you have been penalized: your penalty is to make an orca inside C1 hole. [One can’t enter with large / cap sized hull, but making one inside is another story, though it is mostly pointless - home turf advantage on one hand, yes, but also big bait for groups to evict you] ---
