EIN-Advisory: Alachene — Elevated Predator Activity (Hunter Dredd)

Issued: 2025-11-18
System: Alachene (Everyshore Region — Low‑sec / High‑sec border zone)
Threat Level: Elevated — Focused Predator Activity

Summary

• Alachene is currently experiencing targeted, repeat predation against industrial and exploration vessels. The activity is organized and persistent: high-end Strategic Cruisers (notably a Loki) and specialized gank/tackle ships are operating in the system on predictable cycles.
• The primary actor identified is "Hunter Dredd," operating a Loki Strategic Cruiser and responsible for the majority of attacks during a recurring midday window. Additional operators (Stiletto, Nemesis, Proteus, Oracle, Orthrus) provide scouting, tackle and high‑alpha support.

Immediate Local Threat Warning

• Guaranteed high lethality window: Any resource‑gathering ship (Venture, Endurance) operating in Alachene on Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays between 11:00 UTC and 14:30 UTC is at extreme risk of interception by "Hunter Dredd" (Threat Level 5.0 for those ship classes during this window).
• General assumption: All pilots should assume active scanning/tailing. Stealth Bombers (Nemesis) and Stiletto Interceptors have been used for scouting and tackling; Strategic Cruisers (Loki/Proteus) provide warp disruption and long‑range firepower.

Observed pattern highlights (2025-11-13 → 2025-11-18)

• 8 recorded kills in six days with repeated targeting of Ventures, an Endurance, an Epithal, and an Imicus.
• Concentrated activity during mid‑day UTC windows; multiple operations show coordinated use of Loki + supporting ships (Proteus, Orthrus, Nemesis, Stiletto, Oracle).
• Mobile Cynos and stationary logistics utilities have been targeted — do not assume structures are safe.

Known threat actors (top observed)

• Hunter Dredd — Loki (Strategic Cruiser) — 5 kills (4 as final/blowing attacker). Primary predator of mining/industrial targets. Persistent presence in midday window.
• Azenda Leii — Stiletto (Interceptor) — 2 kills. Fast tackle specialist, effective at holding miners.
• Dejan Estemaire — Oracle / Proteus — 2 kills. Provides high‑alpha support and/or heavy strategic cruiser firepower.
• reno ley — Nemesis (Stealth Bomber) — 1 kill. Confirms use of stealth bomber ganking tactics.

Advisory / Recommended Actions (rooted in observed intel)

1. Avoid the predator window. Do not perform mining, hauling, or exploration in Alachene between 11:00 UTC and 14:30 UTC on Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays. This is the highest‑risk period.
2. If you must transit the system during the window:
   • Use ships with strong warp resilience (fit multiple Warp Core Stabilizers) or fly ships built for rapid warp (Interceptors/assault frigates) for transit rather than Venture/Endurance.
   • Avoid mining and other stationary activities that make you an easy target.
3. Industrial operations: Do not use Ventures or other unarmed miners in Alachene during the predator window. If hauling high‑value cargo, consider routing around Alachene or using a combat escort in a purpose‑built combat ship.
4. Structure/work operations: Delay deployment or activity involving Mobile Cynos or other exposed logistics tools while the Oracle/operator presence is confirmed.
5. Assume professional scouting. Expect Nemesis/Stiletto style scouting and tackle; do not rely on local chat or unpredictable behavior as a safety mechanism.
6. If operating outside the midday risk window, remain vigilant—attacks have also occurred outside the primary window (opportunistic strikes recorded at other times/days).

Closing
Alachene has active, repeat predators specializing in picking off fragile industrial and exploration ships. Follow the timing‑specific avoidance guidance above and adopt the recommended fitting/transit strategies if you must pass through the system. This advisory is based strictly on observed activity from 2025-11-13 through 2025-11-18.
