I am confused how a stealth bomber jumps to a covert ops cyno. I understand you need a black ops ship that can make the covert ops cyno generator, and a covert cyno up, however how does that stealth bomber jump to the covert ops cyno? Does he need certain jump skills or just being in a stealth bomber allow him to jump? Also if he doesn't need jump skills then how does he jump to the cyno?

Right click on Black Ops ship, select jump ... or faster, radial menu on black ops, top option once cyno is up. The person who jumps does not need any skills except being able to fly a covert ops ship in case of black ops jumps. Also whether cyno is covert or not, does not matter.

You only need skills for a jump-drive if your ship comes equipped with a one.

To clarify (I hope), the type of cyno generator used doesn't matter, only that it is a Black Ops ship that is locked-on to it and doing the bridging.

Black Ops can jump or bridge to:
* Covert Cyno
* Regular Cyno
* Starbase Cyno

Of course a covert cyno has the advantages that it is only visible on grid it is activated on, ignores cyno-jammers, and has a short activation cycle.

Also a faq, do I need to actually fit a cov cloak to jump through a black ops bridge? No, you technically don't but you will be purged from most fleets before you reach the black ops in this case. Blink

BTW, Astero and Stratios count as covert ops.
