can drones be put into fleets ?

[Alneyan]

The nice Quantum Engines do give another +3 to movement speed however, so a Battlecruiser has 6 basic movement and 6 bonus movement. (Not that it makes much sense though) The Battlecruiser is the biggest ship with six engines, as the Battleship has only five engines, the Dreadnought four (if memory serves) and the Baseship two.

As for drones, using them to draw PDC fire would be indeed very nice. Their lack of fleet training doesn't matter much in this case, and they can be much stronger than a fighter. I will consider using them with this purpose in mind, as I tend to have too many research points at my disposal. It should be very nice with a few seekers thrown in for good measure and an armada of fighters as backup. *Smirks*
