Angatalie – 2025-10-15
Summary
- Threat level: LOW–MODERATE overall for Angatalie, with a specific HIGH risk from a lone predator.
- Identified hunter: pilot "V1ctorovich" operating a Tengu (Strategic Cruiser). Current intelligence: single confirmed kill (Vexor) on Monday, 13 Oct 2025 — 04:49:12 UTC.
- Context: Angatalie is low-sec — PvP is expected and non-state enforcement is limited. Treat any lone Strategic Cruiser in local as a significant danger.
What we know
- Actor: "V1ctorovich" — appears to be a solo operator. Threat scoring places this pilot at Real_Threat 4.0 when flying the Tengu (highly capable, versatile, and lethal in 1v1s).
- Modus operandi: Solo hunting of cruiser-class targets (example kill: Vexor). A well-flown Tengu will outclass many single-cruiser fits; encountering this pilot alone is likely to end in loss for typical PvE cruisers or poorly prepared PvP ships.
- Temporal pattern: Insufficient data for a recurring schedule. The single recorded engagement occurred at 04:49:12 UTC (late-night/early-morning for many regions), which can correspond to hunter activity windows — treat as a possible, not proven, pattern.
Immediate advisories (Actionable)
- Assume hostility if "V1ctorovich" is present in local. Do not approach unprepared.
- Do not solo in vulnerable ships (standard cruisers, haulers without contingencies, or lightly tanked PvE fits) while operating in Angatalie.
- Travel in groups when possible. A simple wing or small fleet greatly reduces the hunter’s effectiveness.
- Maintain constant situational awareness: keep D-Scan active and check local frequently before undocking, jumping, or warping to anomalies.
- Use defensive fittings and options if you must operate solo: cloak-capable ships, warp core stabs (for non-engagers), or ships specifically fitted to counter Strategic Cruisers.
- Protect high-value movements: favor blockade runners, covert ops transports, or alternative logistics (jump clones for pilots wanting to limit pod risk).
- If you intend to contest or hunt this pilot, bring explicit anti-Tengu tools (kiting/long-range setups, heavy interdictors/point denial, or coordinated fleets) rather than single-cruiser counters.
Operational note
- Current threat is narrow (single identified pilot). Other system traffic is presently low/benign by available data, but the presence of a skilled solo hunter raises localized risk—especially during times when population is low.
EIN will continue to monitor Angatalie for additional activity or changes to this threat profile. Fly smart, avoid predictable lone-ship movement, and treat the Tengu in local as a likely aggressor.
