How to use in your fleet
Gravity Drainers should not be underestimated - they are mobile Gravitational Turrets with a strong attack and large area of effect. As most ships in AI-War are not immune to gravity effects, adding these to your fleet will make kiting a simple affair in every engagement. Therefore, combines well with Missile Frigates and other such long-range ship-types.
Pre-emptively spacing a few Grav Drains around hostile wormholes will provide you with a handy counter to fast marauding ships. NB: Raptors and Hunter/Killers are immune to gravity effects, as are exo-waves until the lead ship has been destroyed (make that a priority!).
