Can someone please explain the cloaked intercept.

How exactly can a loki be attacked by a cloaked ship when it's traveling in
a wolf pack.

Darn, still wont work if the ship is at a planet it just took because you
cannot see it anymore.

Any way around that?

Yes. Leave a fuelless ship in the orbit of the planet he will take next
or get a fuelless ship in orbit of that planet if you believe he will
remain there.

You could also try to guess the fcode he has set on a ship. You are the
Privateer - did you ever get III or AAA ships? Have a try, have a
kitkat.

If you see an fuelless enemie ship togeter with your Loki in the orbit of a
planet, drop the fuel from your Loki or go into the warpwell and let another
ship meet and kill the interceptor ;-)

ciao, harry

And Harry is telling you that there is a counter-tactic to your
scheme... Depending on the skill of your enemy it may still be worth
the risk to try it.
