Many of you have seen this proposal enough times, so I'll go ahead and insert the usual chatter:
* use an orca or jump freighter! * too much cost/skill/dead weight! * CCP make moar orcas! * CCP make moar/bigger industrials! * my freighter needs/wants fittings/low slot(s)/damage control module(s)! * I want/need a ship transporter! * use a carrier! * for highsec! * use an orca! * not big enough/dead weight/skills! * use deep space transport as mini-freighter! * skills/agility/cost/justthefactthatitsabadshiphull! * it's not actually any bigger than an itty 5(cargo indy)! * I want jump clone cargo transfers/NPC hauling/goods teleportation/CCP magicks at my fingertips!
Basic Attributes for Mini-Freighter - hauling capacity somewhere between industrial (40k) and freighter (800k), so probably 100k to 250k - freighter-like attributes except less HP and cost, also faster
I'm probably beating a comatose horse here, but I'm hoping we can refrain from the old overstated comments. I'd like this thread to have some sort of distinction from past mini-freighter threads, to help boost the visibility of the topic. So can I ask you guys to refrain from posting the above arguments for and against? Thanks in advance, and if you can't think of anything else constructive to say, just give a +1 or -1 to show your support or opposition! :D Fit a warfare link to your tech 1 battlecruiser.

This would actually be a good role for the DST to fill, and would prevent it over-lapping too much with the other Industrials. As the BR would then be the small covert cargo, the Freighter/JF the large scale logistics, while the semi tanky DST provides a medium sized transport for semi dangerous space that you can expect back up when roaming through. |

This is probably the most requested ship type that CCP hasn't broken down and made (the previous ones being dedicated exploration, salvaging, and gas harvesting ships). Well, this and a ship carrier that isn't a carrier. |

I was posting in another thread where people are suggesting freighter fittings, and Gizznitt Malikite pointed out that to make the tank vs cargo a fair trade-off, the cargo difference must be immense while the tank difference must be relatively small. This prompted me to imagine a new tech 2 freighter, an armored freighter, with a smallish cargohold (by freighter standards) but with substantially better tank than a tech 1 freighter.
I posted it here because it could be the tech 2 mini-freighter. Just think about it: Tech I: cheap and squishy but fast Tech II: expensive, slow, but tough Fit a warfare link to your tech 1 battlecruiser. Train Wing Commander.
