No, it doesnt look Jove anymore. At least not the "Jove Construct" Station.

I've been playing in Photoshop as well, but nothing better or worse that what has been supplied already.

It looks like a Paladin is orbiting or parked very close to whatever is cloaked. I realize that there is no real way to determine scale, as forced perspective is pretty easily accomplished in 2D images. That being said, I don't think we're looking at a station or a ship. My guess is this is a Sleeper POS.

It would make sense for Sleeper POS to not have a shield bubble, as their ships are not shield tanked at all, why would their structures be? Maybe the trade off, will be they can be anchored anywhere in space, and you can dock in them, but they can cloak? Or maybe they can only be anchored in Shattered Wormholes? Who knows.

I dig the effort and puzzle though.

It certainly does look like some type of structure to me at least.

I'm pretty sure Kate was referring, that it looks more like a Structure than a Ship.

Someone else see a resemblance with Talocan structures in the cloaked station thingy?

Yes, that is a solid observation.

So what are the chances Sansha getting stranded on the wormholes when their tech refuses to work and incursions get replaced with Sleepers wrecking **** and taking over systems if they're not driven out?

Would actually be pretty hilarious if Incursions got removed from the game to support the storyline. Would be even better if they were replaced by Sleeper-style sites that need to be salvaged and looted instead of handing out LP.

Actually iirc from templar one, the "Other" is actualy a sleeper not a entity born in the sleeper VR world.

I thought it was a entity that emerged out of the connected consciousnesses of the networked sleepers in VR stasis. Which caused a kind of civil war within the system.
