These are giant logistics platforms. They have the ability to store 1.000.000 m3 of '''assembled''' ships in their ship maintenance bay so that ~~people that~~ lose their ~~ship~~ can quickly pick up a new one~~, and other~~ ships from ~~your corp~~ (or fleet ~~if you have configured your~~ carrier ~~for that~~) can use ~~you~~ to refit in space. They get a 50%/level range bonus to 2 of the following, varying depending on which racial carrier it is: Capital energy transfer, capital shield transporter and capital remote armor repairers. The amarr archon get cap transfer and armor rep, the gallente thanathos and minmatar nidhoggur get shield and armor and the caldari chimera get cap transfer and shield. In addition to that, all carriers get an additional 5%/level bonus to the following: the Chimera and Archon get a resist bonus (armor for Archon, shield for Chimera), the Nidhoggur get a capital remote rep amount bonus and the Thanatos get a fighter damage bonus. All carriers get the ability to control one extra drone in addition to the normal 5/level of racial carrier and the ability to use fighters (but not fighter bombers). They can't fit any guns or launchers at all, so the high slots are usually used for neuts, smartbombs (drone/small ship defense) and remote reps.

These are giant logistics platforms. They have the ability to store 1,000,000 m3 of '''assembled''' ships in their ship maintenance bay so that pilots who lose their ships can quickly pick up a new one. Other ships from the carrier pilot's corporation (or fleet, depending on the carrier's settings) can also use it to refit in space.

~~However, just like dreads, carriers also get a special module that only they can fit (5 minute cycle): the triage module~~.

The effects ~~of it~~ are:

A carrier has a 50% per level range bonus to two of the following, depending on which race's carrier it is: capital energy transferers, capital shield transporters and capital remote armor repairers. The Amarr Archon gets cap transfer and armor rep, the Gallente Thanathos and Minmatar Nidhoggur get shield and armor, and the Caldari Chimera gets cap transfer and shield. In addition to that, the Chimera and Archon get a resistances bonus (armor for Archon, shield for Chimera), the Nidhoggur gets a capital remote rep amount bonus and the Thanatos gets a fighter damage bonus. All carriers get the ability to control one extra drone per level in addition to the normal five, and the ability to use fighters (but not fighter bombers). They can't fit any guns or launchers at all, so the high slots are usually used for energy neutralizers, smartbombs (for killing drones or small ships) and remote reps.

Just like dreadnaughts, carriers also get a special module that only they can fit: the triage module. Its effects are:

* -100% speed

* -100% amount of drones controllable

Line 37:

Line 38:

* +100% remote hull rep/cap transfer amount

* -50% remote hull rep/cap transer cycle time

* +9999900% EW cap use (all EW mods will therefore take more cap then the ship could ever get, making them impossible to use)

* +9999900% ewar cap use (all ewar mods will therefore take more cap then the ship could ever get, making them impossible to use)

* Immune to EW

* Immune to ewar

* Can't recieve remote support

* Can't jump out or warp away

The triage ~~mod also use stront~~, ~~just~~ like the siege ~~mod~~. The amount used per cycle is 250 - 25 * (level of ~~tactical logistics reconfiguration~~).

The triage module has a 5 minute cycle time and, like the siege module, also uses stront. The amount used per cycle is 250 - 25 * (level of Tactical Logistics Reconfiguration).

Carriers and supercarriers can also use warfare links, but ~~just~~ like ~~with~~ battlecruisers and field command ships, they don't get a ship bonus to strength.

Carriers and supercarriers can also use warfare links, but like [[Battlecruiser|battlecruisers]] and field [[Battlecruiser#Command Ships|command ships]], they don't get a ship bonus to strength.
