Drones

Drones
Drones are mini-ships that follow certain types of rules. Each drone has a different strategy behind it that allows it to be effective, if used correctly.

Fighter
Fighter Drones live up to their name. The Fighter Drone will go after enemy ships that get near it. It assaults the enemy ship with laser-fire that will wear down an enemies shield, and the enemies chassis/hull.

Turret
Turret Drones, once assigned to an area, will guard the area with their lives. Turret Drones are useful against missile type weapons, but they are unable to do anything against laser-type weaponry. Turret Drones can also attack enemy ships, but unlike Fighter Drones, they will not follow enemy ships that get near them.

Repair
Currently the Repair Drones are not available. It is estimated that once available they will help to heal a Captain's ship.

Kamikaze
Currently the Kamikaze Drones are not available. It is estimated that once available they will act as a mainly offense type, that will do what their name says.

Drone Upgrades
Currently all upgrades for the drones will increase their base statistics. (Health, Speed/Range, Damage and Size are the statistics that get increased for the different drones.) The upgrades also have physical changes for the drones, which can help with determining what level they are, when encountering defense setup drones.
