{{important note box|We '''highly recommend''' unistas to train a [[Preparing_for_Incursions#Valet_alt|valet alt]] to move their ships safely between incursions during war, so as not to serve your ship up on a silver plate for our war targets.}}
You should '''never''' move your ship to an incursion constellation alone when your corporation or alliance is at war. The only exception would be if you have a scout (alt or someone helping you) and you know how to travel-fit with stabs, microwarpdrive and cloak.

| ''The microwarpdrive and cloak trick does '''not''' mean you should travel alone, you should still have someone scouting ahead for you to avoid gatecamps. The cloak is just to reduce the chance of getting caught, it doesn't ensure that you'll make it. A proper gatecamp will catch you, especially if you're in a battleship or something with a high signature.''

Using a microwarpdrive and an improved cloaking device is an additional layer of safety you could use. See [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVi1CWcbSUE Seamus Donohue's video] on how to do this.

Make sure you practice this in a less expensive ship, like a frigate, before you attempt to do this on a battleship. Getting the timing right is everything with this trick, if someone locks you up before you cloak up you'll be unable to cloak. Preventing you from cloaking usually gives them all the time in the world to catch up and point you, keeping you in place, which means you're dead.
