[Q]

From what I see and read drones might be very useful and I can imagine quite a few things I would to with them. My only concern is that drones might be very diffucult to handle for the AI. Already now the AI makes only limited use of the units: I never saw AI lay sats on warp points (has anybody seen the use of satellite layers by the AI??), never saw mines around a colony, never saw fighters move on their own through a system and don't think the AI moves weapon platforms from secure colonies to new colonies, that are threatend by the enemy.
The drones seem to be much more complicated, because you have to chose the right moment to launch them.
Any experience from the beta-testers?? Or is this confidential???
