Capital ships

Capital ships (Dreadnoughts, Carriers, Force Auxiliaries, Supercarriers ("Motherships"), Titans and Rorquals) are the largest player-piloted ships in EVE. 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, although this needs another ship to light a "cynosural beacon" in the target star system.

The largest capital ships (Supercarriers and Titans, collectively known as "supercapitals") are so large that they can only dock at the largest (XL) citadels and are too large to pass through any wormholes. Additionally, they can only be built in nullsec system where your alliance has sovereignty.
