Is there any reason that he is using a dreadnought for mining? is this ship in any way better than a hulk or mach for this purpose?
what i mean is, does the dreadnought have enough grid/cpu to fit stripminers etc, without the bonus to fittingrequirements that hulks and other mining ships get?
a last question, does the revelation have more than 3 hardpoints to fit mininglasers to?
(a very nice argument would be the respectable cargohold...) but i think that the hulk has a simular capacity if one does not account for 8 cargoexpanders... :)
then again. if i could mine in a dreadnought, i as i imagine a very large proportion of all of you, would most certainly do it just for the hell of it. ^^

Why, you ask? Because he can. Yep, that's it actually.

Without knowing anything about cap ships or mining ships, and without checking, I'm going to guess that it has something to do with cargo capacity.

You should start a convo with chribba to be sure, hes actually a pretty cool guy. But i think he does it, as has just been said, because he can. Not to mentiont he huge cargo hold and the cool factor of a dread in high sec :)

Style > Substance. If I was Chribba, I'd be mining veldspar with a dred too.

True that they can't go into Hi-Sec but what if you were to build one in a hi-sec system and never jump?
That's right...

That is correct, however over a year ago, capital ships could be built in High sec. Chribba's is one of the few Caps still left in high sec. If i remember correctly, he might have more than one dread in high sec.

I think that there may be one or two others, but none are as infamous as the Veldnought.
And there is at least one other reason to mine in a Dreadnought in HiSec: you're pretty much immune to suicide gankers.

You can't fit Strip Miners on it, so I'm guessing 3 Miner II's.

yeah, gankers should really dont bother... i wonder how much it would acually take to instapop a dreadnought... lets assume he is using 8 expanders II in is lows. this means that the ship is completly without a tank, but it is still 343750 shield/armor hp to chew away. (not counting resists) + th structure is not counted in there either...
anyone have an estimate of how many ships and what class would be needed to achieve this? :)

To instapop this, I think it would take more suicide torp ravens that a single solar system could support.

Figures the Goons would have that number handy. Better watch out Chribba if local blows up.

What the heck is that item in the 4th high-slot? It looks like a sensor booster or a sensor backup array, but those are Mid-slot mods.

I had the pleasure of seeing Chribba and his Veldnought the other day.
I took this screeny for anyone that doesn't know what a mining laser looks like when it's fitted to a dreadnought: Link
