capital ship (eve online)
A type of spaceships from the EVE Online.
Capital ships are the largest player-piloted ships in EVE. True capitals can only operate outside of high-sec space. While they can use stargates to travel (except to high-sec), they can also jump between star systems using built-in jump drives.
Most defensive and utility modules designed for subcapital ships can also be used on capital ships. However, certain capital-ship-sized modules can only be used on capital ships and some modules whose functions are unique to capital ships. The Capital Ship Modules page details these unique modules.
Capital ships are constructed from capital ship components, instead of materials.
All capital ships are immune to the Micro Jump Field Generator of Command Destroyers.
