Tiago Costa aka. mad man sent me the link to this video that describes it quite well:

The difference to what I usually do is, instead of sending 3k bc ahead, that could still be blind lanxed easily, I send some other ships ahead. This can be a sc, cr, lc, colony or recy, anything really. It just has to be slower then the slowest ship you will be adding at 70% or 80%. If you use 70% slowest the phalanxer will need to guess 1 out of 4 speeds and if you use 80% 1 out of 3.

This is a farming hit of trent and I. The bunny I sent is a colony ship taking at least 4:02:22, because the slowest RIP at 70% will take that time. The colony ship takes 4:17:50 and we set the RIPs to go at random times between 70%-100%.

This is pretty cool and you can throw the potential "lanxer" off even better by recalling the bunny right after adding the war ships to it .
