Now imagine that Moros deploying ECM drones.... Neutral

No amount of boosting to effectiveness would help the Moros that deploys ecm drones :/



I'm not sure if anyone has suggested this but . . .
Wouldn't it make more sense if capital ships, such as the Moros, were allowed to use more drones. Nothing obnoxious like its previous 35 . . . Instead of doing either +5 drones a level or a +70% damage per level . . . how bout a mix?

I think a +2 drones and a +N% (you do the math) damage bonus would make more sense. It would still reduce lag and since capital ships are rare to begin with, the extra drones of a Moros (or other capital ships) wouldn't be much of a problem.

Under the suggested system 5 drones per ship would work but I think capital ships should be cut a bit more slack because its role in fleet battles and subsequent need to fend off multiple targets. And at 15 drones instead of 35 drones, this setup would still cut its 'drone related lag' by half.
