After you get past Jihads, you will probably build a crap-ton (10e4+) of chaff that make cheaper planet watchers, and super scanning galleon over-cloakers that only an IT could gate, so take the boosters and crash them into minefields or enemy interceptors. Their final missions will double as recon and stress relief. Very Happy

If you are tech trading, try to get LFs and TGFS ASAP.

AD8 are ok, but the applications and time frame where they are great will likely be limited. First they are decent for incursions into enemy mine fields at speed, if your ships have good shields, additional armour and the enemy doesn't have AD8 yet. A set of PVTs could take a mine hit one turn and 2 the next, when your SD friend decides to detonate. Confused They are good for sweepers that would like to get away from slower CC interceptors. Their best use outside an enemy minefield, is to instigate/exploit counter design. Dedicated Sappers, range zero skirmishers, and retrograde torpedo skirmishers, can have brilliant if short-lived usefulness.
