I'm sure there are loads of threads on the problem with POS warfare. I'm not a forum warrior so I did not read all of them. If this has been mentioned before, sorry about that.
In the current situation you have a small, medium and large POS. Alliances mostly use large POS's for sovereignty claims. I think we will all agree that large POS's are too cheap for alliances (they can pop op loads and loads of POS's in one system if they want to) and rather an investment for small corporations.
Nothing wrong with this, until these POS's can create sovereignty in a system, thus creating POS spamming.
The idea is simple. A fourth POS (small, medium, large, sovereignty), with the 'special ability' to claim sovereignty in a system should be introduced. It is a hell of a lot more expensive, you can only put X-amount (for instance 1) of this pos per alliance in a system, thus countering POS spammage.
(to contest sov in a system, you have to destroy/reinforce at least 1 SovPOS --> don't forget the use of dreadnoughts  )
EXAMPLE 1: (1 SovPOS/alliance)
----
Alliance A has 1 SovPos in a system, and therefore has sov in the system. Now Alliance B comes in and places a SovPos too. Because both alliances have 1 SovPos in system, but Alliance A already has Sov, Alliance A keep sov. Unless the SovPos of Alliance A has been destroyed, Alliance A keeps sov. This makes it pretty hard for B, because they actually have to destroy the POS, they cannot place more than 1 themselves.
----
Of course this idea isn't flawless and some of you will see problems arise or do not like the idea. Please comment on this idea as constructive as you can. |

I have had the exact same thought on this, 1 or very few sov claiming pos only per syst so the attacker's HAVE TO kill pos and not just spam tower's and win without a battle.
Maybe make it have more grid and cpu so it can be a monstrous deathstar, truly refelcting it's importance. Either way i think this is the direction pos warfare need's to go

This would've been a good idea to me, if only someone hadn't suggested this:Titan Stations Maybe something could be incorporated around this idea?

XL Towers are something I've wanted for awhile now.
One per system, +1 for an outpost system.
