Some scouting is purely defensive: a group of players is doing something or travelling somewhere, and need one or more scouts to check how safe the space around the group is, and to warn of incoming threats. | |||
Some scouting is defensive ''and'' offensive: a fleet needs one or more scouts to warn of threats, but also to locate weaker or even opponents. In some cases, offensive scouting will also involve tackling a target ship to hold it down and start a fight. | |||
The ships and tactics used can vary a lot depending on which of these goals a scout has, and which kind of space they're flying in. | |||
