[https://www.spectre-fleet.space/ Spectre Fleet] (SF) is a public NPSI fleet (Not Purple Shoot It - meaning anyone not in the fleet is a potential target).

Having spies (spais) is an unfortunate part of public fleets but it is generally kept to a minimum. If a fleet is spending time in an area blue to one or more fleet members, there is an unwritten rule that fleet members won't give the game away (whether or not they participate in battles/kills).

SF flies many different doctrines in regular fleets and can be a lot of fun and a supportive environment. As with other public fleets, some SF fleets move quite quickly and ~~can be~~ a ~~little confronting on the~~ first ~~occasion for new attendees~~. Any experience in basic fleet mechanics, coupled with the essential SF (or BB) fleet instructional videos, are quite helpful. It is important to note the Ship Replacement is not standard on SF fleets ~~and prospective participants may want~~ to ~~check on~~ the ~~level of~~ risk.

SF flies many different doctrines in regular fleets and can be a lot of fun and a supportive environment. As with other public fleets, some SF fleets move quite quickly and are not a good choice for your first fleet; however, once you have basic fleet commands down they are not hard to participate in and are highly encouraged. Any experience in basic fleet mechanics, coupled with the essential SF (or BB) fleet instructional videos, are quite helpful, as are the EVE University CORE classes. It is important to note that the EVE University Ship Replacement Program is not standard on SF fleets but that SF FCs SRP their own fleets in most cases. Verify with the FC prior to undocking to be sure you are comfortable with the risk potential.

Details on upcoming SF fleets, fittings, fleet instructions and joining comms can be found in the in-game channel (join 'SF Spectre Fleet'). As with BB, carefully check the doctrine/fittings and the staging system to ensure that you are there on time in the right ship (and not being 10-20 jumps away as the fleet starts moving).
