I think Mindlink on Brobots would be soooo good. One problem. I don't have Slicer Tools. Someone pointed out to me, Baffle is bad on this. Ideas?
Mindlink On Bots
You going to provide a link or what?

Stims don't make sense with Mindlink, you will have the focus anyways and the stress dynamic doesn't work out.

What do you suggest then?
Feedback Array. It sounds counterintuitive to do damage to your own shps, but range one of a large base is quite big and it helps a lot when opponents get behind you. Especially good for zapping away Fenn Raus.
Ehhh. Brobots need to sloop too often with just the two ships and no turrets. I would be wary of the stress. A predictable brobot is a dead brobot. They can't just ignore.the stress like other scum lists.
I know of a person that flew Attanni bots with good success, he didn't have problems with that. He used D for more flexibility when turning, though. You will not boost as much as you want to focus a lot of times, so the loss of C isn't too noticable.
I haven't flown bots at all, but I've been talking a lot with some mindlink players lately, and our conclusion was that, while one IG might be good in a tree-ship mindlink list (like IG-C, Fenn and Manaroo with IG-D crew and EU), my fear is that brobots already rely heavily on each other, and mindlink makes it even worse when one of them dies.
It doesn't make them unplayable, but it's something to be aware of.
