To be honest, i think the major point to balance power projecting is time not the amount of ships.

Imagine, ships with small mass bridge faster then heavy ships, but everyone has to activate bridge at the same time, so frigs, destis and cruiser would be deployed way before BC,BS or even other Capitals.

Sure it would harm smaller entities bit more due the fact you need 2 bridge for more offensive projection but overall it would decrease the overall deployment speed to a more "realistic" and reasonable factor.

How about Warbird's Law: Whenever someone gets something named after themselves at least one other person wishes they had something named after themselves, too.

Nope, you coined that, can't give it to him. I'm going to have to keep Abrazzar's Law in mind now.

I have seen that idea, and while fairly interesting, doesn't do a whole lot to limit power projection, it just makes cyno logistics more of a pain in the ass.

And that hurts small groups more than large groups, so you have run into Malcanis' Law pretty much right out of the starting gate.

I also think that, for whatever reason, linking TMC is a good way to have your thread derailed by the regular forumites and eventually locked.

It's not anywhere near as bad as linking this, however, so you might be ok.



if you mean jumpin 30x Jump freighters is small group logistic you are sooo wrong xd


if you drop any thing more than proposed you are not small any more, would be cool. just reduce cyno cycle time and it's all cool

Now for the stupid newb question.

How long does a cyno need to stay up to be jumped/bridged to? Could't you just bypass the "cap" by bridging a bunch of cyno fit Ibis who all light up as soon as they land to make the real fleet jump to all those cynos?

Maybe you need more topes?
