A group of ships, equipped with remote repair units, attacks another fleet in the usual manner. When one of their own ships is attacked, some or most of the group targets that ship with the remote repair units. In this way, the repair power of the whole group can be focused on one vulnerable ship. When the opposing force switches targets, the repair target also switches. | A group of ships, equipped with remote repair units, attacks another fleet in the usual manner.

This is more powerful than having a self-repper on each ship, since for (n) ships, you can get the repair power of (n-1) repping units focused on one ship. Remote reppers also have a faster cycle time, which can make a big difference in combat. | |||
