Default Ninja Drones

I was thinking about drones and why they suck so badly and I had an epiphany. Drones are Ninjas!

Ninjas are sneaky, fast, and seem like they should be really tough. They train for years learning their skills (expensive to build), but then it's all wasted because they get killed on their first mission. A large group of Ninjas will always get beat up in a fight even when they have the other guy outnumbered because they don't attack the good guy all at once. They come at him one at a time and get picked off.

Drones are the Ninjas of the SE4 universe.

Drones can kill anything they want! Drones cut off heads ALL the time and don't even think twice about it. These drones are so crazy and awesome that they flip out ALL the time. I heard that there was this drone who was eating at a diner. And when some dude dropped a spoon the drone killed the whole town. My friend Mark said that he saw a drone totally uppercut some kid just because the kid opened a window.



And that's what I call REAL Ultimate Power!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



If you don't believe that Drones have REAL Ultimate Power you better get a life right now or they will chop your head off!!! It's an easy choice, if you ask me.



Drones are sooooooooooo sweet that I want to crap my pants. I can't believe it sometimes, but I feel it inside my heart. These guys are totally awesome and that's a fact. Drones are fast, smooth, cool, strong, powerful, and sweet. I can't wait to start yoga next year. I love Drones with all of my body (including my pee pee).

Hm. I *have* been toying with creating mounts for drone equipment and weapons so they're smaller than normal and then reducing the hullsize of the drones, but can't decide what to do with damage inflicted/range/damage capacity/etc.

What is a drone, exactly? My SEIV:Gold is on the way. Are they like strategic missiles, or disposable, zero-maintenance ships, or sattelites that can move only in the tactical map, or what?
