WAIT A MINUTE!	We are talking about build points for a vehicle here!!
This is by no means a gauge of the effectiveness of that vehicle.  The
"build points" are used  to portray what you could realistically put on
a
vehicle of a certain size class.  Certain things take up a certain
amount
of space.  You couldn't put a 120 mm smoothbore cannon on a Jeep!  Boy
wouldn't that be interesting?  Recoil  alone would destroy the damn
thing!
Anyway, somewhere along the line the idea of points got skewed.  Anyone
else?  Am I wrong?
