The reason people complain about POS wars so much is because things escalate and before you know it both sides are fueling hundreds of towers and are faced with the task of doing a lot of boring pos shooting if they want to keep/take sov. It makes wars slow and indecisive and results in most combat being against inanimate structures. The current system implemented by CCP is to only allow 5 towers to be anchored per alliance per system per day. Currently all this does is slow down the process.
My idea is that each additional sov claiming tower anchored in a system would lower the shield hp of every sov claiming tower + modules by 8%. Spamming 10 towers would result in each tower having a 50% shield hp penalty, 15 towers would be a 69% penalty. The nature of the penalty and the exact percentage don't have to be set in stone. The important part is that there is a reason to stop the spam/counterspam at some point and start shooting each other.

this is stupid ... it would put alliances claiming systems with many moons at a disadvantage because their towers have less HP. |

Are you even familiar with how 0.0 works? If you have 60 moons in a given station system you're probably only going to hold sov with 5-10 anyway because of fuel costs. One modification would be that towers that have been anchored for several weeks are exempt from the penalty. So pre-existing towers you use to hold sov act like normal, any spam from the invading force would be penalized as would your counter spam.

i heard somewere their changing the way pos's work anyway, summet like the ones that claim sovereignty are set up at planets and are only allowed to use guns and things like cyno jammers. While the ones that dont claom it are set up on moons and they cant use guns but use things like moon miners.
