Default Re: Attack Orders in Simultaneous Play

Basically i have found drones to be the same as any technological advance. You can't depend on it entirerly. It isn't the be all end all. Instead they should be used ot their capacity. Defendign with them is a waste IMHO as you can't build too many. A few ships for the numbers you need to overwhelm any decent PDC coudl do in the fleets you speak of. however a massive industrial base coudl really pump them out and a luanch of say 200 all targeted against a ringworld or a fat fleet could do some funny things to the enemies.

Also, they are great for modding (see Starfire mod discussion) and can be nice ifyou have nothign else (me in Paranoia)
