Why is it possible to jump bridge capitals into a system while the system is cyno jammed? Cyno jammers were supposed to facilitate sub capital combat however using jumpbridges a sub capital fleet is left to take on a heavily armed POS in a system where the defenders can deploy titans and motherships (as well as carriers and dreads) in almost complete safety.

If you wish to contribute to this thread I suggest you at least attempt to make a meaningful post.

Addressing Points: "what's to stop people holding capitals in that system?"
Nothing. However, without the jumpbridges as a means of transport from cyno jammed system to cynojammed system the attackers can choose to attack a DIFFERENT cynojammed system.
"capitals are trapped in the cynojammed system"
Actually under current mechanics any capital ship can cyno OUT of a cynojammed (or highsec system), the cynojammer only stops the opening of incoming cynos.

Originally by: Windjammer Not apporved. Advantage should always go to a defender. Strategically it always has in warfare. Defenders have dug in, fortified their position, set down roots, invested resources in time and material to make what they hold profitable and defensible.
The high number of goons supporting this issue should speak for itself regarding the style of play the OP hopes to support. Goons defeat by using larger numbers of pilots. For the most part they hold few systems compared to their size. They prefer to rip up others rather than take systems to hold and develope for themselves. Weakening the defensive capabilities of those they attack would be nice for them. Also, of course, they've been instructed to support this issue.
The OP's suggestion would have made the BoB/goon war a little easier for the goons, huh.
Thanks for the alt post. Also you might want to check a Sov map, "goons" have far from a few systems.

Yorda, stop posting everywhere. You're dumb.
Also, Serenity Steele has been put in charge of framing this issue for the CSM. This is kind of unfortunate because Serenity doesn't have a clue about anything. Hell, he wants a form of CONCORD to operate in 0.0 space. Sounds like just the man to talk about capital and POS warfare doesn't it? |
