how about 3 T2 versions? it could be like this:
-gas specialization
-ice specialization (requires a new ice haverster module, since the current one is a barge sized module)
-ore specialization (better yield but smaller than that of even a lvl 1 procurer)
all of them would still have the same bonuses of the T1 version along with proper T2 bonuses, like increased yield or reduced cycle in ice harvester modules. also increase the ore/gas/ice hold like 1000 or 1500 m3 more.
take out one rig and put another utility high slot so it can fit both a cloak and a probe launcher. maybe allow them to use a covert ops cloaking device  |

about the idea of the destroyer sized hull. ORE is a non empire faction, so in certain terms you can say that they're like the pirate factions, with only frigate, cruiser and BS sized ships.
the venture covers the frigate size, the barges/exhumers and the noctis cover the cruisers while the orca covers the BS line (althought is more a support role and is considered "capital industrial").
ore is closer to sansha's nation in terms of ship lines, since they're the only non empire factions with capital ships(Rorqual and Revenant).
in the case CCP added BC and destroyer sized ships to the pirate factions, it would have sense to add destroyer and BC sized ships to ORE.
the destroyer and BC could have a different role for mining, right now we dont really need more mining ships, except of course a T2 Venture.
the destroyer and BC sized ships could be like "mini orcas" they would give fleet bonuses and would have smaller hangars, but should give some more variety for the pilot that cannot afford to get an orca yet. (they wouldnt have ship manteinance bay)

ORE is it's own space holding faction. There is no reason why it would not have combat ships of it's own to protect it's own interests. In context of the game, miners need protection. While the military ships of the 4 main empires fill these functions just fine, There is always room in a PvP game for more ways to shoot at people, and more things to get shot at in.
they pay Mordu's Legion to keep them covered and they have their own defense fleets. no need to pull combat capable ships from a faction that focus entirely in industry. |
