== Overview ==
+
 
+
Motherships are part of the class of ships known as [[Super Capital| Super Capitals]] and are currently the 2nd largest class of ships in EVE.
+
 
+
Technically, a mothership is carrier class vessel which is however many time larger and much more expensive to build.
+
 
+
In comparison to a typical carrier, a mothership has the following features:
+
 
+
* Has larger cargo, hanger and drone bays
+
* Cannot be built in, or docked in stations
+
* Can equip a [[Clone_Vat_Bay_I|Clone Vat Bay]]
+
* Deploys 3 additional [[Fighter Drones]] per level compared to 1
+
* Immune to all forms of [[Electronic Warfare]] (e.g. ECM, [[Warp_Jammers|Conventional Warp Disruptors]], [[Stasis Webifers]], etc)
+
* Can only be prevented from jump/going into warp by [[Warp_Disrupt_Probe|Interdictor Bubbles]], [[Mobile Warp Disruptors]], and [[Focused_Warp_Disruption|focused warp disruption generators]] used by [[Heavy_Interdictors|Heavy Interdictors]]
+
* Has six high slots instead of five
+
* Able to fit [[Remote ECM Burst I]]
+
* Allowed to use one [[warfare link]] per racial carrier skill level, instead of just one regardless of level.
+
 
+
There are 4 types of Mothership, 1 for each of the 4 [[Races|races]]
+
 
+
* [[Amarr]] - [[Aeon]]
+
* [[Caldari]] - [[Wyvern]]
+
* [[Gallente]] - [[Nyx]]
+
* [[Minmatar]] - [[Hel]]
+
 
+
== Roles ==
+
 
+
Although all motherships mainly provide logistical and support roles, the bonuses each of the 4 race motherships allow different areas of specialization.
+
 
+
* Aeons have armor resistance bonuses which allow them to field heavy armor tanks
+
* Wyverns have shield resistance bonuses which allow them to field heavy shield tanks
+
* Nyxs have deployed fighter bonuses allowing them provide more firepower to offensive operations while fielding a moderate armor tank
+
* Hels motherships have their strength as a logistic platform with bonuses to shield/armor remote repair amounts. They are also extremely flexible and are able to field either a modest shield or armor tank
