Sorry to interrupt all of your FAPping about here, but I didn't notice anything in this thread about the Olympus Gunship from the Fleet Book (p. 12). Does it really only have one weapon mounted on-board (medium laser cannon), or is this an omission and/or incorrect listing?
And, for the record on the whole FAP thing: IMO, the PL system of fleet building has been, is, and will always be broken. I've also heard/read all the arguments for and against since the game first hit the shelves, and a true points system would definitely keep fleets and/or weapons from being revised every 6-8 months (point values possibly, but not entire sets of ship stat lines). There's also no misinterpreting a fixed point value, or worry that two ships of equal PL are not of equal value on the tabletop.
Feel free to ignore that last paragraph if you either agree or disagree - not attempting to start an argument in the middle of your argument here.
