Disclaimer. I like gun drones, I've always wanted to field an army of them, yes they are very limited tactically, and unless they can get behind a vehicle they're screwed, but I've always had a soft spot for the flying dustbin lids. With the drone Net I now have a chance to field an army of them without having to go unbound.
Now my question, though I think I already know the answer. Due to the wording of the drone net, is I field 2 or more formations what is the increase in the BS of the drones?
Cheers

Might help if you posted the wording. Automatically Appended Next Post: Generally speaking though, a model can't benefit from the same special rule twice.

Collective Targeting Data: In the Shooting phase, add 1 to the Ballistic Skill of all Drones (including Drones that are not part of the Formation) as long as at least two units from this Formation are on the battlefield.
Agreeing with Kriswall here, can only benefit from special rule once.

The benefit of having more than one Drone-Net is that it takes more effort to remove the bonuses as your opponent has to kill twice as many Drones.

And don't forget that drones are non scoring.
So you might want to talk to your opponent about changing the mission objectives (unless you plan on tabling him/her!).
