Additionally the Remote ECM Burst just adds insult to injury. This module allows even a well prepared group of ships with devoters and logistics cant keep this thing tackled; all it needs to do is fire the Remote ECM burst and order its fighters to engage the HIC as it activates its bubble to maintain tackle, destroying it in under a minute as it cannot receive remote assistance.
I think, that logis could retarget him little faster than in 1 minute, but what do I know?
I think what he was getting at is IF a Hic has it's bubble up - not the scripted point - that it can't be repped by a logistic. Even though the logistic can target the Hic, a Hic that has either the point or bubble up can't be repped. The duration on the hic bubble is 1 minute, thereby giving the mom a minute to focus and pop the hic.
While SCs may be a bit out of whack I personally think that a few minor changes could help resolve the issue;
-Allow normal carriers to field fighter bombers (10 at carrier 5)
-Increase Dread Damage by 50% or so
-Make siege match triage (5 min cycle) and also allow for siege and triage to be cancelled - IE a dread enters siege, it leaves siege after 2 minutes, it can't re-enter siege for another 3 minutes

Really?? It ain't a cap ship in siege/triage... bang goes my plans if true 
Yea, I just re-read my post and it may have been unclear so I'll try to fully explain
When a Hic has the WFG active it cannot benefit from remote effects (remote sensor boosts/reps etc), this normally isn't a problem if a Hic is using the focused point because the cycle time is short - like 6 secs or so, if it is not the scripted point and just the bubble the timeframe that it is active is much longer. So if you can create a situation where the Hic has to use the bubble (jam drones/ecm burst etc) it gives you a short window to pop the Hic.

I know what he meant, but:
1. If you bring only one bubble ship for mommy, you don't deserve that killmail anyway.
2. Duration is 30 seconds, he have to be extremely unlucky, to be attacked at the start of the cycle and HICs are tough nuts so I wouldn't worry much about SC killing them of fast and zipping away.
I totally agree with you.
