Re: noobie question about drones
there are work arounds for nearly all these problems.
drones are big and costly compared to fighters, but can potentially deal more damage. and unlike ships, they do not cost maintenance
drones can not be recovered, but this is being fixed in the next patch
drones might not attack the right target type, but you can write custom strategies to fix this problem (one is included in Fyron's USM).
all drones launch when a planet is attacked.. yeah, well, this sucks. it will not be a problem once drones are recoverable, though.
