Ah... you see, that's almost more of a personality quirk than a function
of the SMBs.  I just took the counters, looked at (roughly) where
Kochte's ships were the turn before, estimated the difference, and threw
the things down.  Took all of maybe 10-20 seconds (IIRC) to place six
SMBs.  Now, if you get someone who's more anal (no offense to your
opponent) about that sort of thing... it can take a lot longer.
