Motherships are part of the class of ships known as [[Super Capital| Super Capitals]] and are currently the 2nd largest class of ships in EVE.
 
 
 
Technically, a mothership is carrier class vessel which is however many time larger and much more expensive to build.
 
 
 
In comparison to a typical carrier, a mothership has the following features:
 
 
 
* Has larger cargo, hanger and drone bays
 
* Cannot be built or docked in stations
 
* Can equip a [[Clone_Vat_Bay_I|Clone Vat Bay]]
 
* Deploys 3 additional [[Fighter_Drones|Fighter Drones]] per level compared to 1
 
* Immune to all forms of [[Electronic_Warfare|Electronic Warfare]] (e.g. ECM, [[Warp_Jammers|Conventional Warp Disruptors]], [[Stasis_Webifiers|Stasis Webifers]], etc)
 
* Can only be prevented from jump/going into warp by [[Warp_Disrupt_Probe|Interdictor Bubbles]] and [[Focused_Warp_Disruption|focused warp disruption generators]] used by [[Heavy_Interdictors|Heavy Interdictors]]
 
* Able to fit Projected ECM Burst Module
 
 
 
There are 4 types of Mothership, 1 for each of the 4 [[Races|races]]
 
 
 
* [[Amarr|Amarr]] - [[Aeon|Aeon]]
 
* [[Caldari|Caldari]] - [[Wyvern|Wyvern]]
 
* [[Gallente|Gallente]] - [[Nyx|Nyx]]
 
* [[Minmatar|Minmatar]] - [[Hel|Hel]]
 
 
 
== Roles ==
 
 
 
Although all motherships mainly provide logistical and support roles, the bonuses each of the 4 race motherships allow different areas of specialization.
 
 
 
* Aeons have armor resistance bonuses which allow them to field heavy armor tanks
 
* Wyverns have shield resistance bonuses which allow them to field heavy shield tanks
 
* Nyxs have deployed fighter bonuses allowing them provide more firepower to offensive operations while fielding a moderate armor tank
 
* Hels motherships have their strength as a logistic platform with bonuses to shield/armor remote repair amounts. They are also extremely flexible and are able to field either a modest shield or armor tank
