Capital ships are the largest ships usable by players in the Discovery mod. Their size ranges from elegant cruisers to gigantic warships.

Note: Capital ships - due to their size - are hard to maneuver. While going through an asteroid or a minefield, they easily collide with obstacles, which makes the trips longer. Battleships have a tendency to get stuck in asteroid fields. Docking with jumpgates and trade lane ring requires much more attention than with a small vessel as you need to get into position or else you get stuck or (in luckier cases) take a long go-around.

Also note: You may freely purchase and operate a capital ship, however be aware that many of the ships factions have registration requirements. Buying a capital ship without the appropriate approval and registration may and usually does incur the unwanted attention of the ship faction. Often they will put unregistered ships on a hunt and destroy list, the roleplay premise being that you have stolen some of their technology.
