By far the most efficient + effective mode of combat is when you "synchronize" your Officers to fire at whatever your drone fires at.  (Don't have Officers?  Check out our [[Buyer's Guide]]).<br><br>
It is fairly simple to do, at the bottom of your screen make sure the correct "Officer Bar" is enabled, and make sure they are not in "auto fire".<br><br>
Highlight the Officer(s) that you want to synchronize with by either clicking them, or pressing their number buttons.<br><br>
Whenever you fire on a target in your drone, your Officers will fire as well!  (Just make sure they all have ammo equipped!)
