Bridges and Jammers in combination:
I fail to see the issue with this, if changed so that you have to take the jammer down to get your capitals in then the point of the jammer goes away as you open up for the hostile caps to jump in aswell.
Jammers and Titans:
Not a serious issue in reality as the number of titans isn't that high and even with bridges they can't be everywhere at the same time, the argued 4-8 titans defending a jammer just shows lack of emagination in strategies.
Dificulty to take the jammer down:
It shuld be hard to bring down otherwise it serves no purpouse, and it can be done as seen in both QY6 and NOL, failure to organise to take full advantage of that window where you can jump caps in shuldn't be blamed on the jammer.
On Greyscale's posted sugestions:
- Allowing Covert Cynos to operate in cyno-jammed systems
Why not, doesn't change things when it comes to pos warfare.
- Increasing fitting requirements
It's fine imo, as i said earlier it shuld be tough to bring down.
- Making jammers burn their own fuel in addition to fitting, probably with a sub-24h refuelling period (my current favourite number is eight hours)
Horrible idea, we have more then enough logistical elements in largescale pos warfare as is.
- Cyno jammers disabling jump bridges in the system
Horrible idea again, see above why.
- An "offensive" cyno generator array that can be onlined without sov, but takes 24h+ to online, and is not affected by jammers (idea (c) CCP Bettik)
Not a bad idea perhaps, exploitable though as any one with a brain would anchor one of them for them self in there jammed system to be able to jump caps in hence avoid using bridges.
All in all though i think this is all a fairly pointless discussion as the problems with pos warfare isn't the jammer or the titans or the bridges, it's an overall design issue with the whole mechanics involving sov and pos warfare.
imo sov shuld be decided by a specific tower designed for it with a limit of 3 in each system, this prevents pos spam and forces an actual fight for the system, current pos's shuld be redesigned to new versions military and industrial to be more specific in there roles.
One of these day i might even sit down and put all ideas i have around pos mechanism together but the thumb is kinda stuck so who knows if it will happen =)

Guys, guys, clearly having multiple titans defending a cynojammed system isn't a realistic idea and hasn't actually occured within the past week on tranquility.
Never said it wasn't a valid tactic to defend a system, no beeing able to adapt your tactics around said defense shows the lack of imagination.
