What good are drones? [EOM]

[sachmo]

I guess what I'm not understanding (actually started another thread about this) is HOW you are grouping the drones for ATTACK. If you shift-right click, and target an enemy fleet, all of the drones arrive at the same time, but attack the fleet individually in seperate tactical combats. I would imagine that the same thing happens when attacking a planet. So, is the only way to launch multiple drones in one tactical combat to enter combat with a ship loaded with drones, and launch them every turn?

BTW, I am not asking about the denuvalmod...I'm using TDM and Standard.
