Re: Deploying Stealth sats
Send your cloaked ship into an obscuring storm sector & drop the sat in there. It would still be worthwhile to cloak it, becasue hyperoptics etc can still see through storms (if you research the right level) and I think your cloaking will add to the obscurity. Also, he might develop stellar manip and clear the storm...

Re: Deploying Stealth sats

I don't think so. If i have hyperoptics or temporal sensors level III i'm able to see everything cloaked even in sector storms.

Re: Deploying Stealth sats
Level 3 scanners can see everything except IIRC through certain nebula (NOT storms)
Cloaking does not add. The highest cloak level for each type is used..

Re: Deploying Stealth sats
Does a storm that says:
"There is heavy radiation causing combat sensor interference" hide my sat. Or does it just interfere in combat (It says so)?

It does not hide the sat. It has to say something about obscuration(sp) of sensors or some such if I am not mistaken.

Storms only obscure long range scanners, not sensors. Cloaked ships will still show up on sensors high enough to detect them normally.
