WoW! I just got F.o.F. and am mighty pleased. As I was outfitting
one of the new Steel Lynxes, I came upon a question I felt needed to
be asked.

Okay, as we all know, max amount of slave ports a remote can have is
three, neh? We also know that in the RiggerBB it tells us that
remote turrets count as one remote (or something along those lines.)
Now, up until now, I had only really thought about remote turrets as
a part of vehicles, which if you're driving your hovercraft around
and using it's remote turret that's not much of a problem. It is if
you're trying to coordinate the actions of a number of drones though.
Anybody know? If I'm controlling three drones and one of them has a
remote turret, does that mean I can't use the remote turret? Does it
mean I have to take one of the others offline to use the turret?

Your answers please, chummers.../---/
