EIN-Advisory: Alachene — High Threat for Industrial Traffic (Everyshore)

Date range analyzed: 2025-11-14 → 2025-11-19
Region: Everyshore — System: Alachene
Overall Threat Level: 4.0 (High Risk)

Executive summary

Alachene is currently a high-risk low-sec system with a concentrated, repeat ganking pattern directed at mining frigates, haulers and light utility ships. Activity between 2025-11-14 and 2025-11-19 identifies two principal, highly consistent aggressors and a supporting interceptor threat. Pilots conducting mining, hauling, or low-power utility ops in Alachene should treat the system as dangerous and modify operations accordingly.

Observed pattern & timing

• Primary activity windows:
  • Peak mining/hauler harassment: 11:00–14:00 UTC (multiple days: 11/14, 11/16, 11/18)
  • Secondary evening window: 17:00–18:00 UTC (noted 11/19)
  • Occasional late-night opportunistic strikes (example: 22:30 on 11/15)
• Primary targets: Ventures (mining frigates), Epithal (hauler), Capsules, Mobile Cynosural Beacon, light combat ships (Imicus, Vexor)
• Threat style: Coordinated, high-efficiency ganking using cloaky/versatile platforms with follow-up interceptors for rapid kills.

Primary adversaries (identified)

1. Hunter Dredd (744537204) — Loki (Strategic Cruiser)

   • Specialist anti-industrial ganker. High consistency; involved in multiple Venture and Epithal kills. Thread rating: 4.5.

2. Dejan Estemaire (2113053476) — Proteus / Oracle / Garmur (T3C, Attack BC, faction frigate)

   • Versatile hunter able to switch roles between heavy DPS and fast-frag ganker. Operates alongside Hunter Dredd. Thread rating: 4.0.

3. Azenda Leii (91569099) — Stiletto (Interceptor)

   • Rapid-execution interceptor used to burst low-HP targets and capsules. Thread rating: 3.5.

Combined use of Strategic Cruisers (Loki/Proteus), high-DPS BCs and interceptors creates a persistent, effective gank capability against solo/unsupported industrial pilots.

Tactical implications

• Cloaked T3 cruisers and faction frigates permit ambushes on aligned/slow ships and rapid peel on attempts to warp out.
• Mobile cynos and utility structures are vulnerable to opportunistic heavy DPS (Oracle-class) strikes.
• Industrial pilots operating alone or without cruiser+ escort risk near-certain loss during the identified windows.

Recommendations (operational advisories)

All tactical guidance below is based on observed kill events and attacker capabilities during the analyzed period.

For industrial/mining pilots (Ventures, Epithal):

• Do not operate solo in Alachene during peak hours (11:00–14:00 UTC and 17:00–18:00 UTC).
• Use aligned mining fleets with multiple watches and cruiser-or-higher escorts prepared to engage cloaked T3s and interceptors.
• Keep jump/warp timers and pre-aligned bookmarks ready; avoid long warp-in delays or extended anchor times.
• Use scout probes or an external scout fleet (pilots in neighbouring safe systems) and prefer group mining in numbers that can deter a two-pilot gank.

For haulers and utility ops (Epithal, Mobile Cyno Beacon deployment):

• Avoid solo runs through Alachene. If cargo/utility run is unavoidable, move with at least cruiser escort and perform staggered, unpredictable timings to reduce ambush windows.
• Limit cyno/structure deployments during identified predator windows; consider routing via safer alternatives.

For PvP/combat pilots:

• Expect Dejan Estemaire to field anti-combat specialty ships (Garmur) and Hunters to use strategic cruisers; avoid 1v1s with these pilots unless you have significant numerical or tactical advantage.
• If contesting local hunters, coordinate quickly and confirm ship roles (interceptor vs. strategic cruiser) before committing.

General precautions:

• Check recent activity/kills for Hunter Dredd and Dejan Estemaire before committing to operations in Alachene. If either has recent entries in the system, defer operations.
• Plan operations outside peak windows when possible.
• Consider alternative routes/systems in Everyshore for high-value or vulnerable ops.

Closing

Alachene's pattern of targeted industrial harassment is organized and repeatable. Pilots treating the system as standard low-sec risk—without additional escorts or altered operating profiles—face an elevated probability of loss. Adjust schedules, move valuable assets in groups, and avoid predictable solo activity during the identified time windows.
