It makes me wonder if there could be some sort of lower-cost real-life strategy game with cheap(er) homemade drones eventually, kind of like FPV racing now. I'm not a big RTS person but that sounds really fun.

If the drones were not destroyed as part of normal gameplay it could make sense. So rather than a battle Royale maybe something like drone laser tag mechanics

  • Exactly, laser tag was exactly what I had in mind. Over a long enough space I could definitely see it being fun, and just have them turn off when they've been tagged. Plus, at the end they could probably clean themselves up and drive away.

    • StarCraft units are semi-autonomous anyways. You don't want a human controlling the drones every movement, that would be awful
