The Rorqual is notably capable of using a capital industrial core to substantially increase its industrial capabilities, while empowering its defenses during deployment in a static configuration. A key element of the industrial capacity unlocked by activating an industrial core is the ability to use compressor modules, with the Rorqual able to use the powerful and logistically impressive capital compressors.

==Summary==
== Summary ==
Before the Citadel Expansion the Rorqual was mostly a toy for Mining Forman Links and ore compression in the field. Nowadays it's a serious weapon for the industrial backbone of major nullsec alliances and also sees use as a PvP ship as well, using its high drone damage and capital tank to good effect.  
Before the [[Expansion#Citadel|Citadel Expansion]] the Rorqual was mostly a toy for Mining Forman <s>Links</s> Bursts and ore [[compression]] in the field. Nowadays (As of April 2018) it's a serious weapon for the industrial backbone of major nullsec alliances and also sees use as a PvP ship as well, using its high drone damage and capital tank to good effect.

''Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot Rorqual for a specific or it's common role(s) can be written here.''
Avoid using the Rorqual for mining [[command burst]]s - command bursts give the pilot a weapons timer, which inhibits his ability to refit off his [[Mobile Depot]].
