Quick fact-check because it's been a few years:

Eye of Terror 1.0 went from Scalding Pass to the border of Querious
Eye of Terror 2.0 went from Deklein through Fountain

Is that about right? Does anybody remember the years they were active?

Thanks.

the first eye of terror went from the drone regions to scalding pass and teneferis/detorid then into deep feyth or whever it was R I S E was based out of, in some 4 system choked off ring, the propaganda being laid onto them was real thick with "surrender now the eye is coming" poo poo as our systems slowly ticked up to the required sov level

Good point. Broken mechanics usually either strongly favor our opponents (blap titans anyone?) or aren't such an obvious, unmitigated benefit to us.

What I'm saying is, "I sure hope so."

the no fatigue thing benefits our enemies way more than us cause they're way more spread out and have way shittier capital geography to deal with. this would save us, what 2 jumps up to cloud ring? meanwhile if they ever make up horde could go from geminate to dek/fade to help got and vice verse

I honestly don't know why they don't steal the mechanic from Elite and allow you to jump tremendously long distances with the fatigue building up at the destination. The longer you jump, the more fatigue you receive. I mean, having been on long-distance capital move ops, I can tell you right now that SCap/Cap FCs' blood pressures would go down immensely if it was a simple A>B procedure.

And perhaps link it so jumps work like warp bubbles do now - only in a jump bubble, you've some time to go get yourself a drink/hit the bathroom quickly. As a counter, have it generate such a signature that the party you're attacking (and anyone who bothers to look at the galaxy map) can actually *see* the line of the fleet en route, and a general estimate of the time of arrival and the target constellation, but not the system. Maybe even add an upgrade to an outpost that can tell you the target system five minutes before the fleet arrives, or you can scan it out.

CCP's new owners are going to be pissed if EVE stagnates and there aren't any headlines, and that's when really stupid poo poo gets implemented.

Well, then - something more convoluted. Seems the thing you need to jump in EVE is a fixed point in space. Can't get any more "fixed point" than a star.

Our jump bridge network should be called the Connected Universal Migration hyperloop.

Or CUM loop, for short. Thus enabling the need for the :cumpolice: to keep us safe in our travels.
