gollark: Though there are chunkloading upgrades which you could maybe use.
gollark: The main issue is probably chunkloading, since drones need to, well, move through the air to get places.
gollark: Anyway, for drone swarms I recommend just screnching them and stealing them, or failing that (I mean, you could do both), hijacking the drone swarm and sending it against your enemies.
gollark: If a drone is going around ramming you you can just scrench it. If a drone drops HECf-251 on you, it can go high enough that you can't see it, drop it once, and fly away before you know what happened.
gollark: Yes, and it's very hard to defend against.
