More importantly, if they are as expensive as I've heard, I can't afford them; I could probably beg, borrow, and steal enough ISK to obtain one, but at that point I couldn't afford to use it. The appeal of my Orca plan -- if only I could get it where I want it, which it sounds like might be <b>theoretically</b> possible once the wormholes get here, but not very likely in practice -- is that the expensive asset is always (a) logged out; (b) under cloak, or (c) uncloaked in a system that has no hostiles in local.

Eve Online should have some kind of logistics badge or skill or something. There should be some recognition for all the moving stuff about we all have to do. Have you ever looked into Black Ops ships? I would have thought they'd be right up your street - particularly with their magic jumpdrives. Perhaps a tad flimsy though. I do love your idea though, I think the Orca will make the best wormhole exploration ship - just as long as the mass limits aren't too tight!
