Although focussed on the same goal, each of the these systems has its own strengths and weakneses and are very different in implementation.  The cap warfare drones are the same as other EWAR drones and share strengths and weaknesses with the TD and SD drones.  Alternatively the modules are very different from other EWAR modules.  They fit like weapons rather than EWAR modules, in high slots with three sizes corresponding to hull size, competing for fitting slots with DPS and high slot utility rather than mid slot tank and utility.  Compared to other EWAR modules they have short ranges and kill capacitors incrementally in the same way that DPS destroys shields.  Much like TD, cap warfare has setups against which it is inherrently limited.  As an example, a passive tanked drake will still be able to tank and DPS with 0 capacitor (it won't be able to use any active hardners, warp jamming, or propulsion modules though!).  Cap Boosters are the natural counter to capacitor warfare as they inject capacitor charges which will nullify, mitigate, or enhance recovery from cap warfare just as a shield booster will counter DPS.
