GERPER — High Alert (4.5): Capital‑Capable Fleet Operating in Low‑Sec
Date: 2025-09-28 (Analyst data)
Executive Summary
- Gerper is currently a red-zone for solo and small‑gang operations. Recorded activity shows a coordinated, capital‑capable task force operating in-system. Treat the system as highly dangerous until further notice.
Observed Threat Composition (from provided analysis)
- Capitals and force application: Moros dreadnought, two Nidhoggur carriers/force auxiliaries.
- Heavy assault/strike elements: 7x Redeemer HACs, Ikitursa, Zirnitra.
- Stealth/command: Sin and Widow Black Ops battleships.
- Fleet support and damage: Oracle battlecruisers, Osprey Navy Issue support.
Threat Implications
- This is not a casual roaming gang; composition indicates planned, high-value engagement capability (capital strikes, heavy alpha, stealth ambushes, sustained fighter/drone damage).
- Presence of Black Ops and Triglavian hulls increases risk on undock/gate approach and complicates standard engagement counters.
- Time of observed activity: 02:26 UTC (Sunday) — may point to prime participation for EU/NA timezones, but this is a single datapoint and should be treated as provisional.
Recommended Actions (Low‑Sec Operational Guidance)
- Avoid transits through Gerper unless operating with comparable numbers/capitals or clear mission necessity.
- Do NOT undock alone. Keep aligned, cloak if possible, and have an immediate warp-off plan.
- Use scouts and multiple-time checks before entering system; assume you're being scanned or baited.
- Avoid lengthy loitering on gates, bookmarks, or mission sites. Capitals and Black Ops can turn short windows into lethal traps.
- If engaged or suspected of being targeted: warp to a safe, align off, and extract. Do not attempt to tank capital-level alpha without capitals/logi support.
- Move high-value assets and cyno caps only with confirmed allied capital support and active intel on hostile fleet locations.
Closing
Gerper's current configuration reflects a battle-ready, well-resourced force. Exercise extreme caution, keep movements brief and concealed where possible, and avoid isolated operations in-system.
