Super carriers have access to fighter bombers, basically anti battleship and up type fighters and they can bring serious amounts of electronic warfare and logistical support (they can black out an entire fleet when fired right)
Titan hulls are generally 70 billion unfitted by raw materials only. Star base fuel and protection are thrown on top of that when being sold to outsiders.
To put things in perspective though the last major fight with a whole lot of titans dying only saw 11 of these things killed. Early reports suggest as many as 90 died yesterday.

PLEX market price is at about 660 million ISK at the moment. Considering that one PLEX equals to about $19.95 on average ($17.50 per plex if you buy the 28 pack), that would equate to about $4,473.63 for that Titan loss alone ($3924.24 based on the $17.50 figure). Assuming each of those lost Titans share the same value, that would equate to no less than $364,954.32 with 93 titans lost.
Again, this is just an estimate based on the value of that lost ship alone. The other Titans may have used cheaper fits for all I know. We need to wait for an official tally of the value. Stay tuned for any news at TheMittani.com website.

Actually, I would be ok if they could make any amount of ISK during their free trial. CCP already has limits imposed on certain skill books that can't be trained on trial accounts such as Exhumers, Black Ops, Covert Ops, Transport, etc.

It's fun, isn't it?
If you think about, there really is real-world money involved. Eve Online allows you the ability to purchase PLEX with cash and then trade that PLEX away to another player in exchange for the in-game currency ISK. That other player can then use that PLEX to either trade it again for a higher profit or use it to extend their own game time by 30 days. It's because of this mechanic that we are able to attach actual $$$ figures to the battles in Eve giving us a perspective of the extent of each battle.

it's simply a way of understaning the scale of the losses, an analogy basically. while saying that so many trilions of isk has been lost will be fine for long term eve players converting it into real world helps people unfamiliar with the game get an idea of how much time and effort just got blown up.

Exactly.
Imagine the effort put into one Titan Class ship alone. Under the current mechanics, Titans can only be built in null-sec (0.0) space inside a player-owned structure (POS aka Control Tower) in a system that has it's status upgraded to support such a manufacturing effort. That involves security and having an indispensable fleet of miners on your side that can bring in much needed minerals. Titans also require special materials that regular miners can't get access to: T2 components which can only be acquire via moon resource harvesting which only the POS can go. This makes some moons with the needed materials highly lucrative. There is also the expense of providing the fuel needed for those POSes to operate and hiring logistical help to maintain that supply. There is also the fact that skilled marketeers are employed to look for supplies at the cheapest rate possible per unit to cut down on cost while also employing low-sec haulers to move critical supplies from high-sec to null-sec when needed.
As you can see, this is not easy at all and takes weeks of preparation and production just to produce one titan.

Not that it matters, but officer modules usually take way MORE PG+CPU, especially PG than any other stuff.
That much more that it makes best sense to fit them on capitals.
There are some variations which take less yeah, but if I recall correctly they tend to be the 'storyline' modules which are also a bit weaker.

Imagine if you will what would happen if instead of being destroyed straight to a wreck that Titans went into a reinforced mode, like a POS or similar.
And then DUST mercs get to fight over the wreckage for salvage ownership (extract minerals)
And they could be fought over like PC districts
Minerals could be collected from the mining operation like planet resources.
And more fights for ownership could ensue until the resources are depleted..... |

Good point, perhaps control of the wreck only then, that could provoke some even more interesting fights as the owners of the downed Titans vie for control of the recovery rights.
It would be nice if it was possible to mine back say 50% of the minerals expended in making the Titans, they are rather time consuming to create. |
