Line 12:

The friendly interdictor positions themselves about 20 km in front of a gate that the hostile fleet will warp to, and stays cloaked until the hostile fleet has entered the staging system. (The spy's job is to let the interdictor know when this is happening.) The hostile fleet will likely have scouts, but they will only be able to see the interdictor pilot in local, so they will report that it is safe for the hostile fleet to enter the system.

At this point, the interdictor decloaks and launches a [[~~Interdiction 101~~|bubble]]. As long as the bubble is launched before the hostile fleet begins warping across the system to the gate, the fleet will land at the edge of the bubble instead of reaching the gate. After the hostile fleet begins warping, but before it arrives at the bubble, the interdictor flies to the edge of the bubble (where the hostile fleet will arrive) and lights a cyno.

At this point, the interdictor decloaks and launches a [[EVE_Lexicon#Bubble|bubble]]. As long as the bubble is launched before the hostile fleet begins warping across the system to the gate, the fleet will land at the edge of the bubble instead of reaching the gate. After the hostile fleet begins warping, but before it arrives at the bubble, the interdictor flies to the edge of the bubble (where the hostile fleet will arrive) and lights a cyno.
