A spool-up requirement is reasonable. Mass limits for cynos only means that lighting nobody would jump /less/ than 10 supers or 8 titans to a lone cyno, ever. Why? Because it makes a counter-drop that much more difficult. You'd need 5-10 cynos for any serious counter-drop, which is just ridiculous. This basically allows people to use supers with less risk of interference, which is dumb dumb dumb.
Spool-up timers are a decent idea worth discussion, but cyno mass limits are just silly

actually basically any upper limit to force projection would mean that nobody would use less force than that upper limit allows
for example if bridging 200 ships on top of you costs 1b and 201 costs 2b, we'd drop 200 each time, guaranteed
you're not limiting force projection, you're specifying an "I win" critical mass

I think a cooldown would be better, honestly. Something like not being able to jump twice within x amount of time, rather than killing off hotdrops.

March rabbit wrote:great story. now i see why you need unlimited cyno bridge (hint: you can park hauler close to titan and refuel it when need) and safety of bridge from under POS shields. 
yeah no titans can literally carry more fuel with room to spare for mods and stuff than what you could haul to them in any ship short of a jump freighter
thanks for playing

developer attention is focused on important issues like "miner bumping" so we might see devblogs regarding force projection by 2015
