I know next to nothing about drones... 
How are drones harder to stop than CSM's? Drones have a damage resistance of 50, the same as CSM's. What am I missing here?
Also, drones require 5 supply per turn. Can you put a solar collector on it and let it "hang" in space until it is needed?
And finally, "They are also the only units that can travel through warp points." What does this mean in practice?
