Default Re: Do you have Plague dropping experience?

I prefer to invade straight out but if i am to not have enough troop transports or troops immediatley to take a planet in a system i have a few plague bombs ready to bomb the biggest or most important planet - then can withdrawl my fleet and wait for the troops to arrive - this also has the effect of slowing the enemy advance.

Also useful for those of you advanced enough with cloaker and quantum fuel devices (unlimited supplies) waging a behind the backline war (make sure you have a fleet with a big ship with plague bombs and a few mine sweepers)

Actually its fun waging war silently from behind their front line - really confuses the enemy AI.
