Can't believe no one has even discussed the Orca yet. Here I go with a fat wad of digitized ISK in my digital wallet, off to buy myself the 450 mil skill book. I wonder about the Orca though:

1) Can 2 of the same laser optimization deals work at the same time (high slot)?

2) Can I move things from the Orca ship cargo to the corp hangers while in space (and vise-versa)?

3) Can a freighter put/receive items into/from this corp hanger while in space?

4) When fleeted with non-corp members can they utilize the corp hanger?

5) Is the ship good at picking up the chicks because dang.... I'm gona cruise it untill the tires fall off.

Brag your fittings plz. Is there anything sneaky cool that goes in the mid slots?

If you mean the gang modules, then short answer: No.

Yes.

Theoretically yes.

No. You can allow them to use the Ship Maintenance Array though. Although, according to a post I read once you can put things into the hangar of an other corp's ORCA (not take). Again, this needs to be set specifically, and I havent tested this.

No. Get a Nightmare or Machariel for that.

Actually, the Orca can activate 3 gang link modules at once, same as any command ship. And yes, the "chick magnets" are the faction BSs. Or you can always get a mom :p

Edit: Ah but you are right in saying that more than 1 of the same module wont work as they dont stack. You have to have 3 different ones.

Slysar... you goofball. Capitol industrial ship book costs 450 mil, so grats to myself on being a roqual pilot I guess:P Industrial command ship skill is used for Orca piloting, only 45 mil for that book. (I'm allowed to troll myself at least right? And deservedly so...)   >insert 400 mil flushing sound<

Discovered by flying with my own alts...

1) no

2) yes

3) No (and no theory about it Azirophos) '21:15:02 Notify The cargo of this class of ship can only be moved while docked at hangar or close to an online Control Tower.' <--this is the freighter speaking

4) They can place items IN the corp hanger only.

5) I haven't picked up any chicks other than the damsel from Kruul's pleasure hub yet... (but I had alot of fun with her)

Extra note: you can configure the orca to allow fleet members to utilize the ship maintenance bay.

Sneaky-cool midslot fittings seem to be cap rechargers to easily offset the drain from using a few gang link modules.

It was such a nice theory ;) But thanks for clearing that point up.

With the Orca's cargo space, you can bring some heavy chicks!
