How to use in your fleet
Note that because the Mark IV scout is immune to tachyon beams, it can never be directly targeted by the AI forces. It can only be hit by AOE attacks that are targeting another ship nearby and EMP effects will affect it as normal.
If you like to figure out things such as how may scouts will survive per wormhole traveled, see the section on Cloaking for further information on how cloaking boosters work. In short, one pass through a Tachyon Sentinel will decloak 1/2 of your mark I scouts, and 1/4 of your mark-III. Survival rates depend heavily on how fortified the ingress/egress points are, so it may be worth making Tachyon Sentinel raids until a better solution is available.
How to counter when in the AI fleet
The AI does not use scouts, as it doesn't have need for them.
