You were asked – TMP link

Do drones make for boring wargames? If the important fires are by precision-guided weapons from off-board, can you make a game that's fun? Do you have to go to a much larger ground scale and concentrate on anti-aircraft and anti-drone defense, along with firing locations and C3I assets attacking each other? If concealment and detection are the primary elements of a fight, do figures on a beautiful terrain board make any sense?

It would be interesting to have a limited intel game where the players get a photo from a drone flying over the table as their intel for their move.
