Couldn't find this but sound like a good idea, making an unknown space - wormholes to be able to link to each other, ie wormhole to wormhole only, will make whole point of wormhole much more active Jump Bridge Some rules would need to be build into this, for example, you can only bridge wormholes with other wormholes. Class 1 wormhole can only link to other C1 or C2 Class 2 only to C1, C2 or C3 Class 3 only to C2, C3, or C4 and so on. This will require each corp to create their own network of connections and will make more sense of fighting over POS and moons, will also require more cooperation from corporations ie more networking of wormholes will mean more PVP. |

you need Sov to anchor JBs ... and cannot claim sov in W-space.
with that said, it's not exactly a "terrible" idea ... though making it easier to claim w-space will just turn it into what null is like now... |

That's the point, jump bridge without Sov, as WH is unclaimable
Imagine all the times you will need to defeat your POS just to keep your network working On the same token imagine all these networks crossing, if you get few corps having Jump Bridges in the same WH all new possibilities... |

I get the feeling it would discourage combat in w-space more than not. With bridge between several wormhole systems it will be easier for an alliance to reinforce itself when an invading fleet comes. On the other side though, that fleet doesn't have a bridge network to work with, and is still restrained by the mass on a wormhole.
Additionally it would make controlling a wormhole a moot point. Attacking fleets will have one point of entry into a system. Defending fleets will have multiple points of entry that the attacking fleet likely cannot even access, let alone attempt to control.
Wormholes work very well as it stands. Each system operating as an island is one of the core principles of w-space and what keeps it separate and interesting from the rest of eve. |

Agreed, the issue become way too in favor of the defending force. This would allow blob warfare to occur in wormhole space. Imagine a few C6 WH's linked VIA jump bridges (each corps home WH etc and they all lead to each other. If one WH gets attacked, all forces could swarm into the WH to help defend it.
Blob warfare in WH space, NO.

Exactly this, the whole point of wormholes mehcanics is to discourage blobs and large swathes of occupied space by implemnting mass restrictions.
that said though, i wouldnt be against a module or rig for a ship that somewhat decreases the damage it does to a wormholes stabilty, since its such a pain in the ass to move enough dreards through a wormhole to siege a C5 or 6 (since generally the guys on the other side will have just as many but probably more dreads and carriers defending then you can assault with) |

This would destroy the point of wormholes as the last *snicker* "uncharted" frontier nobody owns,. |

I disagree, because it was a pain in the ass for the folks that have already set up shop to get their towers and capitals in there to begin with. In my opinion it should be equally difficult to sneak an opposing force in. I would maybe, maybe stand behind something that A) had to be Anchored, B) took 24 hours to online at a minimum, and C) was destructible. |
