Capship = short for Capital Ship = a really huge warship. Death Stars, PK Command Carriers, and such. And I'm not just multiplying sizes by 10, I've created a whole new list of ships, from 120kT Light Scouts to 25MT Command Carriers, and quite a lot of "special" ships, like Destroyers with inherent scanning capabilities, War Cruisers with inherent supply storage etc.

I created the first version of Capship because I wanted to place more comps on my ships. In stock SEIV, you can field large fleets of Baseships fairly easily, but even GETTING a COMCA is extremely hard on your economy - especially since they cost an unbelievable amount of raw materials and there's a 50% standard maintenance cost. But when you DO get those large (huge, massive) warships, you've got an invaluable asset.
