Default Re: Drone and Anti-Drone Tactics?

Err.. yeah, so a little tension here...

Well, I can definitely see Jourin's point about looking forward to getting one thing and definitely not getting it. Unfortunately definitions and thus expectations are just too flexible, especially when MM is in the business of creating a pretend, futuristic Universe.

Personally, I'd love to see (1) the Drones get cheaper, which is easily enough to mod (see below) and (2) some drones being capable of scouting through warp points, which is not modable.

My suggestion: ask MM to make a special component that allows Drones to go through warp points (how about a "warp motivator"). Make it either prohibitively expensive or (my favorite) just make it big... like half the size of the Drone. Thus people will be able to create warpable drones, but these will still be inferior to small ships because you end up with less space for additional components.

Just my thoughts on it all. Hope y'all have a good day.
