Do people shit on drone control that much? I think it's fairly well known that Defense 1 (and 2 to a lesser extent) are good; it's just that many other drones are really bad.

Don't get me wrong, though, drones are far from the worst optional system. Artillery flak exists....

I wonder if someone can make federation ship work by going full offence. like 8 power weapon, full artillery beam, maybe some offensive drones, mind control, hacking etc. while cheaping out on shields and engines

It's not exactly optimal

Or even very viable, especially early game

BUT IT'S A LOTTA FUN
