Might I respectfully suggest that CCP consider one small change.
That rather than reinforcing with an Entosis module incrementally, an attacker must have his Entosis module on the sovereignty unit being attacked for the full timer.
Thus, any form of LOL reinforcing may be reverse trolled by simply waiting until the timer has nearly expired before decloaking a Falcon, jamming the aggressor and resetting the entire process.
Thus, an attacker must be committed to the conquest, or run the risk of being trolled himself.

Well it seems CCp did another lets go have a party at the local pub and head back to work to make ideas for Sov as we keep holding back all info or train of thought cause were going to think of this in 1 hour or less

ill put this Simple and in a brief overview

Link idea Good

making link easy to obtain and were any one that paid for a 1 month subscription can trol 3 systems (very bad)
(possible fix Science 5 infomorph 2 for t1 5 for t2 and that it can only be fitted on a t2 or t3)

Timers are far to short even when grinding sov it can take hours less supers on field

Link should use Something Like Stront to work which would encourage more team work and not just one person cloaky camping a system tell no one is inside and then start working a timer

Also any ship with the link can not cloak or has a cool down timer before the ship can cloak


Station services should not be vulnerable unless the tcu is past its first timer as people would just go around trolling people all day and despite your bot policy there are many bots still roaming i can see this just being something put on a bot

any system with 5 5 5 for the indexes should be exempt from any kind of Sov fees seeing that would give this a benefit

The moment the Module is activated it can not be deactivated tell its full cycle is complete preventing cloak the ship can not fly out side the Range of the module during that time and the moment its started alliance is notified and the cycle will last a minimum 15 min and if used on a cap its min should be 14 for t1 13 min for t2

also if home team uses 2 modules and attackers use 1 module the attack should be reversed as long as the 2 modules are still active tell the cycle ends up to a max of 5 total links making it a race to who gets the most links on the object
(example away puts 1 link on defenders put on 1 which opens 3 additional possible links which will be first come first serve team with the most links on after the last ships cycle wins that fight



any system with no station takes no less then 30 min for reinforce regardless of level of system

link on a Stargate can have a chance to temporarily interrupt travel

further more with this taking place it basicly makes Capitals useless you first limit peoples movement and then make it hard to defend

i want my carrier to jump further

You know, I remember this kind of rhetoric before. When the mobile siphon units were announced Goons swarmed (no pun intented) the thread with comments about how their siphons would blot out the sun, how they would siphon every moon in EVE.

And it never happened.

The way the income is structured, people have to spread themselves thin.

This must be accompanied by a nullsec income rework.

NO STRUCTURE will be outside of reach of a defensive E-link for the people actually LIVING THERE. Sov in empty/far-flung systems will be immediately lost. Sov in or very close to every system housing live pilots during that alliance's prime time will be invulnerable to this sneaky interceptor genius.

The small alliance holding 3 or 4 systems with 30 or 50 people online doesn't care where the interceptor goes or what it E-links once it leaves their borders. It won't be hard for them to field a couple of defensive E-links within a 2 or 3 jump radius during a 4 hour window that completely negates anything the interceptor can do within their borders.

(To be fair, the LARGE alliance holding 300 or 400 systems with 3000 or 5000 people online, in-space, and spread out between all these systems ALSO won't care. Alliance size isn't relevant; having living, online pilots in the systems you own, few or many, is all that matters).

Again, all this intentional. Space that is being lived in will be trivial to defend against this kind of harassment. Space that isn't being lived in won't be. That's the basis of the mechanic.

Provi is the group that will benefit the most from this change.

The E-link world is a world where you don't need caps/supercaps to take and hold unattractive sov. You don't even need to win most of your PvP engagements to take and hold unattractive sov. The only requirement to take and hold unattractive sov is to be the only group that wants to live in that particular unattractive sov. The only people that seem to want to live in provi is provi. And they are pretty much the definition of a group of people actually living in their space on a daily basis.

The only thing that has kept provi alive this long is that no one took it from them and then made them pay rent, because everyone has a bit of a soft spot for provi and it wasn't worth the risk of accidentally starting a real war with someone important. Post E-links, provi will be forever protected by the fact that their space is simply worthless, and you can no longer force ANYone to pay rent for space your alliance is close to/living in.

Provi will be far safer than it's ever been under this new system.

There is no Working way to tackle interceptors, and it's very hard to tackle Covops too.

It's hard for me to undestand way you keep the interceptos imba in this matter.

They should be allowed to do sov warfare if you can tackle this thing.

He will just leave the grid and come back when we warp off, and you can do this for ever ... :<

Thats way i think Interceptors and Covops hull should not be able to fit Sov linki thing.

A simple "fix" would to be to make this new SovLazor fittable on a specialty hull ... lets say a Command Ship. Make it an investment in effort to attack Sov rather than the usual anti-sov wormhole bears.

I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS!
