more on drones

[PvK]

For a warp-assault, send in ships with drones and drone launchers... and minesweepers... and some other ships.

One advantage of drones is the enemy can be surprised by the size of your force - they think they have you outnumbered, but then some of your ships launch bunches of drones.

Search old threads for other drone techniques. I've posted several in several threads.

But do not drone launchers launch all drones at the enemy, thus wasting large numbers of them?

[PvK]

They do launch up to their ability to do so, but if your plan is to launch them all, then it's ok.

If you want to control how many will be launched, you can store some in a cargo ship without drone launchers.
