Have a look at the costs for a BR/BT squadrons. The 154th from Sup 7 cashes in on the capital ship side at 90k MCr, where as a Battleship comes in a over 100 k...
... Are you sure that this is correct? In your conversion, you gave the price of one Nolkian as about MCr 9300. That sounds awfully cheap for a 20Kton rider. ...

Hi Tobias, ... True - I'll think on with this - it may be that this is an optional advanced rule rather than the basic system. ... Having looked at the screen...
Dear Dom - ... I must give my apologies at this point. I'm chiming in, where I can, on "canon" stuff. However, I don't have anyone to playtest _Power...

Two points, as a got bored with Aeromechanics revision and decided to contribute something useful to PP: 1) I can't read the PDF rules file. There are large...

Having got bored with revision, I ran a small playtest battle. It probably wasn't the best thought-out balance of forces, and I might re-run it with destroyers...
