Default Re: Sorry for the newbie questions but...

Many thanks for all the replies. *sigh* Well drones don't seem to be what I expected (hoped) they would be Expensive, unrecoverable, useable only as weapons. Was hoping to use em for recon. I take it they can't go through WPs either?

Well I came up with a few more questions while sitting around thinking about SE IV...

1) Engine killers can be stopped by shields, but not armor, and a ship with no engines/supply can't fire weapons...? So an organic race would have to rely on shields to counter engine killers? Or would adding supply storage to every ship be enough?

2) Is multiplex tracking any use? I don't recall multiplex ever being any real use pre-Gold. Threads that I've looked at seem to indicate that at least in strategic combat a ship with multiplex fires on at most two targets if you're lucky

Well thanks again. Can't wait for my copy of Gold to arrive...
