== Drifter Wormhole Systems ==

There are 5 known Drifter wormhole systems that are similar to C2 wormholes with certain system effects. Although they are named by the typical J-type designations, they are informally named after their predominant structure:

There are 5 known Drifter wormhole systems that are similar to shattered C2 wormholes with certain system effects. Although they are named by the typical J-type designations, they are often informally named after their predominant structure:

Vidette, Redoubt, Sentinel, Barbican and Conflux. Note that the first four names suggest an advanced military fortification.

All Drifter wormhole systems seem to have 20 connections to known space (k-space) plus a C2-C2 static. K-space connections always appear in system with a Jove Observatory. Their k-space connections are quite different from all other wormholes however:

* On the K-space side the wormhole is marked by a beacon called "Unidentified Wormhole" and is thus visible on the default overview.

* The k-space side connections carry unique names that are related to their name:

** V928 Vidette (J164710 - Magnetar)

** R259 Redoubt (J174618 - Wolf-Rayet)

** S877 Sentinel (J055520- Red Giant)

** B735 Barbican (J110145 - Cataclysmic Variable)

** C414 Conflux (J200727 - Pulsar)

* On the wormhole side the connections carry the usual K162 designation after being opened, but are deadspaced, so you will always warp in at 80km distance.

* Drifter battleships ~~guard~~ these connections and will attack anybody trying to approach or travel them. A cloak and/or MWD is highly recommended.

* Drifter battleships regularly visit these connections and will attack anybody trying to approach or travel them. A cloak and/or MWD is highly recommended.

* The k-space side connections carry unique signatures that are related to the type of wormhole:

Each Drifter wormhole contains 5 unique combat anomalies. They are visited by regular Drifter patrols. More detailed information is available via [http://go-dl.eve-files.com/media/1508/IKAME-Drifter-Hive-System-Anomalies.pdf Drifter Hive Systems Anomalies (pdf)].

All Drifter wormholes contain a number of huge Drifter installations protected by deadspace pockets and connected via acceleration gates and warpable Rifts. There is a chain of 4 main rooms plus access rooms branching off to the side.
