Hello All,

4F2e states that a ship can control no more than 6 seeking weapons unless it is noted otherwise on the ship card. The card for the Kzinti BC has no note on it that I can see but the ship itself has 4 drone racks and I would think that it should be able to control more than 6 drones. Is this ship really limited to 6 drones?

Yes, most kzinti ships have 4+ drone racks and the can only control 6 drones.

I can't remember which, NCC or CC, but one of the kzinti command cruisers can control 12 drones even though it didn't have that note on it (they can both control 12). That may have been corrected since the earlier printings of the card?

Thank you Lee.

It was the CC that was retroactively given the ability to control 12 drones. The NCC always had it.

The ability to control 12 drones in Federation Commander is very rare. Basically, it is limited to:
- Starbases
- Battleships with drones
- Drone ships
- Some Kzinti command ships

Other than that, ships with drone racks are limited to controlling 6 at a time.

And that leaves me so sad. Really.
