As above - only just got my SB and getting used to it - can you say cloak - creep inside a pos shield and then unleash hell on stationary ships????

Seems a bit simplistic to be possible!

What would be the point of POS shields if hostiles could creep or shoot into them?

Read a report out there on the net that CCP hadn't fixed the shields to take into account bombs.

If it's on the net it must be true (it is not).

I've tested this and found that bombs launched though the forcefield will damage the tower, but nothing else. So ships and modules inside don't take any damage.

What about launching the the bomb inside the shield? like this?

nope, won't let you do that, no dmg dealing mods will activate on a hostile fleet outside the shields if you are inside the shields.

As for the statement above about launching a bomb into the shields, it may look like the bomb is entering the shield but it is damaging the force field only, anything inside the force field is protected by it.
