Hi-Scout Drone Carrier
« on: 19 November 2011, 09:40:38 »
Would the Inner Sphere Clans possess Hi-Scout Drone Carriers?  Could the Snow Ravens get them from the Outworlders?

Could they acquire one? Sure, the constant raids and battles around the Inner Sphere, not to mention trade, give plenty of opportunity to acquire Drone Carriers.

Would they use one? Probably not, the Clans are sticklers about keeping warriors in combat.

Hello,

As Mike pointed out, the Clans are not big on remote warfare. There's no bravery or honor in letting a drone gather your intel when you have scout tankers, scout MechWarriors, and scout Elementals all dying to do the work.


Thank you,
