SECTION 1 — MINING FLEET DOCTRINE (AMARR‑FOCUSED)
Amarr does not have dedicated mining ships, so this doctrine uses the standard ORE mining hulls while keeping all support, logistics, and defense Amarr‑themed.
1.1 APPROVED MINING SHIPS
Venture (Newbro / Alpha)
Cheap, disposable, warp‑core strength
Good for scouting belts and gas sites
Procurer (Defensive Mining Barge)
High tank
Best for hostile‑prone areas
Standard fleet barge
Retriever (Yield Mining Barge)
High ore hold
Best for long sessions in safe space
Covetor (High Yield)
Highest mining rate
Requires protection
Porpoise (Boosting / Light Support)
Mobile command bursts
Drone mining support
Good for wormholes or small ops
Orca (Fleet Booster / Hauler)
Strong boosts
Large ore hold
Acts as fleet anchor
Bowhead (Transport)
Moves fully‑fit barges between systems

============================================================ SECTION 3 — LOGISTICS & SUPPLY CHAIN
3.1 CORPORATE HAULERS
Bestower
Cheap, high cargo
Good for ore hauling
Sigil
Tanky hauler
Good for dangerous routes
Providence
Mainline freighter
Moves doctrine ships in bulk
Bowhead
Moves fully‑fit ships to staging areas
3.2 STOCKPILE RECOMMENDATIONS
Keep the following pre‑fit and ready:
10x Punishers
10x Coercers
5x Mallers
5x Omens
5x Harbingers
3x Augorors
3x Procurers
3x Retrievers
3.3 NULLSEC / LOWSEC RESUPPLY TIPS
Use jump clones to move between staging areas
Keep a Providence in highsec for bulk resupply
Maintain a Bowhead in lowsec for ship movement
Anchor a small citadel for compression and storage
============================================================ SECTION 4 — INTEGRATION BETWEEN MINING & PVP
4.1 RAPID TRANSITION PLAN
Mining fleet stays aligned to a safe
Combat wing stays docked or on standby
If hostiles appear, barges warp instantly
Combat wing undocks to engage or escort
4.2 SHARED SKILL PATHS
Mining → PvP crossover:
Drones V (used by barges and Amarr drone ships)
Capacitor skills (benefit lasers and mining modules)
Armor tanking skills (universal for Amarr PvP)
Navigation skills (benefit both mining and PvP)
4.3 SHARED INFRASTRUCTURE
One citadel for ore compression, refining, and staging
One jump clone for mining, one for PvP
Shared corporate hangars for doctrine ships
Centralized ore buyback to fund PvP losses
