But Ed....
I am a bit unclear what the issue is about the shields?

All units treat shields as a part of their hit points, not actually as shields.

High-tech drones with lots of defense bonus and structure can be ... consequential. I have a few uses for drones. ;-)

Re: I finally thought of a use for drones!
Emissive Armor III makes Drones fairly hard to kill with PDC alone (except with hideous numbers of PDC of course). Yes, even just a single component.

As far as I know emissive armor does not work on units. Please correct me if I am wrong. |

Re: I finally thought of a use for drones!
Troops can have emissive armor, so hopefully they at least work on some units. Don't know about drones, however.
Since units are just a damange point total, does the brokenness of emissive armor not apply to them?
