Ship Maintenance Bay. Perhaps a relook of size is in order. Increase to 675k m3 to allow to carry 2 Hulks and 1 Iteron V. Add the restriction that only Barges, Enhumers, Industrials and Transports can be carried by the Orca and you've got it just like the Rorq.
HiSlotAdd a 4th Hi Slot withthe CPU/PG to go with it and a skilled pilot can run Mining Mods and Tractors supporting a corp belt mining quite efficiently.
IMHO, this will make the Orca perfect.

Hi All,
I was messing about on the test server and, because I was not paying particular attention to what I was doing, fitted two MFL - Laser Optimization gang mods on the Orca.
I was able to undock and activate both.  Not sure if they would stack on the bonus' however I received no warning and both seemd to function properly.
I will try to get a miner on with me soon to see what effect activating both has on his cycle time.

The Orca is looking very good right now. So, what is realistically left? 1. Finalize the BPO values. 2. Increase Ship Array to 475k m3 (include no battleship restriction) 3. Add a 4th HiSlot. (wish list) 
Already updated have been: 1. Corp Hanger increased to 40k m3 2. Cargo Hold increased to 30k m3 3. Skill required made a bit tougher 4. Drone bay incresed to 75 m3 5. Drone bandwidth increased to 50 Mbit
I am sure I have missed some other fine-tune improvements however, there is no way to make EVERYONE happy so just finalize the last few items and we will have our Industrial (Mining) Command Ship.
This also leaves the opportunity for many variations of the Orca in future patch/releases. Maybe one geared more toward mid-level hauling, etc.
Box it and ship it ... I want one |

Edited by: Max Essen on 10/11/2008 02:09:24 Kind of concerned about the Orca BPO still.
We are only a few days from deployment and the Capital construction values still seem a bit out of wack when compared to the Rorq. I will not go into details as many others have posted the same.
Assuming this is the final disposition, so be it. I will still be in line to buy or build one fairly early. Well, after the initial "****" of the early adopters is over.
