Lemme guess: You round "points available for turning" UP, don't you?

Personally, I've never seen a capital ship with thrust higher than 4.
They just get too bloody expensive.

And, this is just me, but as long as FT does not define any roundings,
I will round all figures to the disadvantage of whoever initiated the 
action that requires rounding (i.e. the ship's owner if it's a design 
rounding, the attacker if it's a damage rounding etc.).

Any other way, I'd just get swamped with weaseled optimized designs -- 
AND hurt the players who are too busy to design their own ships even
more.
