Drones
I’ve compiled a list of drone data that I hope will be useful to those of us who love our drones. First, I have tabled the various drones, the race they belong to and what type of damage they do. What good is knowing all of this if you don’t know which enemies to use the drones on? To address that problem, there is a Drones by Enemy Faction table which should prove most useful.
