| |
| − | The following ships are preferred for incursions due to a combination of higher base stats, better bonuses and better slot layouts, with the exception of the logistics ships where skills are more of a determining factor.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | There will be no recommended fits for these ships, for several reasons but mainly the following two:
| |
| − | * They can be fitted in a million and one different ways and each fit has its strengths and weaknesses.
| |
| − | * We do not want to indirectly encourage people to fly these ships until they have a good understanding of how to fit for incursions and how to capitalize on the strengths of various ships.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | As such there is no need for advanced fits on the wiki because by the time you are ready to fly them, you will already know enough to figure out how to fit them properly.

| |
| − | | Unistas are recommended to have the [[EVE_University_Medals#EVE_University_Graduate|Graduate medal]] in order to fly the more advanced '''pirate faction battleships''' and '''strategic cruisers''', as well as using costly '''faction''' and '''deadspace''' modules. This in the hope that they understand the risks associated with flying them and the consequences of losing them to a war target.

| − | You are still allowed to fly them, if you so desire, we just won't recommend it.

| − | == Pirate Faction Battleships ==
| |
| − | These ships are good ships all around, regardless of which type of site you do. Their slot layout is good, plenty of midslots, their ship bonuses are often purely offensive, making them ideal for incursions where tanking bonuses are highly overrated.

Useful training for alts
It is no secret that having alts or several accounts are extremely useful in EVE. Incursions are no different and we can make good use of alts for a wide variety of things, especially unistas during war.
The training times shown below are assuming the same +3 attribute implants as mentioned at the top of this page.
Orca
The Orca is a wonderful ship that's more like a mobile base than just a ship. It has a ship maintenance bay to store ship, enough cargo hold to carry lots of ammo as well as spare modules, an ore hold for lyavite. Its refitting services and fleet hangar is also very useful for changing things up while in space, or to have a nearby stock of lyavite handy in a non-station system.
Even if you fly this ship on an alt that you cannot have logged on at the same time as your main character, the Orca is a tremendously useful ship.

- With everything turned off, you still have 92 - 96k ehp.
- With just the Damage Control II turned on, you have 195 - 200k ehp.
- With the shield hardeners turned on, your ehp goes up to 209 - 230k.
Making the most of it
If you can afford to spend a little more time on it, there are various things you could do to make life a little easier for your Orca-pilot.
Should you have a lot of time and an interest in mining as well, the Orca is the premier booster for mining operations, shadowed only by the Rorqual. But that would be a considerable time investment.

Neural remaps
Normally one should be careful about remaps and not spend them needlessly. However, if you are making an alt knowing that it will only train for a month or two and not train anything else after that point, consider using all the remaps.
For example, if you're using a PLEX (Pilot License Extension) to activate Dual Character Training for a month or two, then using all three neural remaps makes sense. It might allow you to squeeze in some more skills or shorten the training time to be within one or two months instead of slightly more.
Common guides
There are several common guides on the wiki already. Our needs in the incursion community is a little different, but it might be useful for general purposes or to get some inspiration of what else to train on your alt.
