FAP breakdown for the CTA tourney

[Court Jester]

No, buying down you get 1, 2, 4, 6, 12.
So a battle point gets you 12 Patrol ships, or 24 twofers.

I'm sure it's even both ways in the Fleet lists and Matt said that was the one to use.

I'm sure you're wrong.

My fleet book says 2, 4, 8, 12, 18

[edit - correct numbers]

Remember the FAP splits are wrong in some early rulebooks

Well I may be getting my wires crossed as to which side I was arguing for but Matt definitely said to use the fleet book FAP breakdown over the rule book one here:

The Rule book split is 1,2,4,6,12,18 the fleet book split is 1,2,4,8,12,18
the fleet book takes precedence according to Matt

Thanks Da Boss, you're right, I just get mislead by previous posts

I'm glad it's not "In" the rules

It's primarily so the games fit in as fleets with loads of ships take a lot longer to play. For example, when I played Tank with my Abbai horde vs his EA fleet (that still had nine ships), we were just into the meat of the game when we ran out of time. It really sucked as it was a winner takes all table 1 clash too!

That was the game that convinced us to bring the rule in!

Does my breakdown work using the Fleet List version of FAP? I think so, but I only had half an hour with the book yesterday, so I'd be grateful if someone could check.
