Weird Question, I know. But humor me.
(btw: I'm not Blue to the current inhabitants)
I guess the only ways are: (And correct me if I'm wrong)
1) Get someone who already has a carrier in the system to "give it to you"
2) Infiltrate a blue corp and either buy it in system, or set up a pos and built it in a week or so.
3) Just set up a pos and pray no one notices the CSAA for a week
4) Here's the real question:
Wormholes.
What about keeping a scanning character in the system I want the carrier in (Call it system A) and scanning for Class 4 and above WH's that either open to losec space (system b) or to a hole with a losec space exit. (Hole C)
When I find one, get the character to the nearest system (system B) with a carrier for sale, fit it, cyno to the hole and either jump to the WH system and then the destination system, or maybe the hole just goes to the destination system.
And, yes, hope I don't get jumped on the way.
What CLASS of WH's would I be looking for?
Thanks!
When I find one, jump my carrier to the other

Class of WHs can be anything C4 or greater, as those are the ones which fit carriers. (Or do C3s fit carriers as well? I'm not 100% sure.) Staticmapper is useful to see if the WH system you found has a static (i.e always connects to) a lowsec/nullsec system. Theoretically, though, a wormhole can connect to a lowsec/nullsec system even if its static isn't a lowsec/nullsec system, so probe it thoroughly regardless. -------- Enemy corps raided into disbandment: Three.

Use the :sphere: and cyno it in anyways?
As for some of the answers.
1) Probably the easiest way
2 and 3) You wouldn't be able to set up a POS and have it there long enough to build a capital. It will get knocked down, fairly quickly too. You can't build supers without sov, so that option is out. ...Then when you stopped to think about it. All you really said was Lalala. |

Wormhole gets my vote as the best method. Shouldn't take more than a few days to find a route to the desired system.

Class 5 and class 6 wormholes are mass limited to carriers and dreads (and freighters and Rorquals). Supercarriers and titans cannot use wormholes.
Carriers and dreads are build with an XLSAA array. CSAA are used for supercaps.
Probably easier to just turn the jammer off but ya, you could scan a w-space route out of the system, but finding a route to a useful lowsec/nulsec system on the other end may be challenging.
I live in a C5, and just trying to scan a route to hisec is a PITA (I typically give-up after scanning 4 w-space systems). So much so that we usually just wait for a random outgoing to hisec wormhole to appear (about once a month).

Crikey. Thanks for all the replies. So building one is out, probably won't be able to BUY one, I doubt they'll turn the jammer off for me.
I think I'd better not move or lose the one I have. Or get very good at scanning wormholes.
Thanks again, y'all.

I do not know if this would work, but i have seen WHs from low sec to 0.0 which a charon fits in (we used this to get a station egg out without arranging an escort fleet), are there any from 0.0/low to 0.0 that a carrier would fit in?

I would both put a scanning ship in the system you want to infeltrate looking for a way in via WH space and try to sneak a spy into their alliance. Once blue you can buy a carrier in system and transfer it to your toon.
I have to ask though, what do you expect to gain from this? What ever you jump in system isn't going to be worth the loss of the carrier. You're best bet is to nail a Freighter exiting their station and hope no one would be smart enough to warp in their own carriers to rep it up. Any ratting ship you could jump might just be bait to get you out of cloak so they can swarm you.
While it would be cool to get a hostile carrier into a cyno jammed system you'd just be inflating their kill board.

I'm just going to pretend you're trolling about the WH idea. If by chance you've smoked yourself rere, I can give you BMs sometime into a *great* system to push your carrier through...

One (or more) of the benefits of a carrier are a maintenance array and ship storage...

Incaping the cyno jammer with a small RR BS gang is probably your best bet.
If you mean solo, then getting lucky with a WH is your best chance. Here is how I would go about it, sit in the 0.0 system and scan for WHs everyday. If by chance you find one, try to see if it leads you to somewhere where you can cyno to and then take the WH route.
Otherwise I think your out of luck but if it is a sufficiently large system, you could theoretically build one without anyone noticing if you do it in off-peak hours.
