Huh? There's only *one* mass-1 weapon: a single class-1 beam
battery.

396 also != 369, but I know what you mean.

I mis-typed that number; it should have been 319 points,
not 316. Here's my numbers:
Assault Transport, p.42
Point Cost 319
Unallocated Mass 6
Hull Displacement (120) 120
Ship Type Military
Hull Strength Weak 24 48
Thrust 2 12 24
FTL Capable 12 24
Beam / 1 (1) 1 3
Fire Control System (1) 1 4
PDS (2) 2 6
Hangar Bay Cap: 20 mass 30 90
of small craft
Cargo Space T8 T8 T8 T8 32 0
---- ----
114 319
Unallocated Mass (6)
Adding the screen:
Level 1 Screen 6 18
---- ----
120 337
Unallocated Mass (0)
I assumed that the landers weren't included, since other
hangars (fighter bays) in the FB were priced empty.
If I add the cost of the landers:
Mass 5 Lander (4) - 40
---- ----
114 377
So I guess the landers make up the difference, so the
FB listing appears to be missing the screen generator.
Guess I need to add "interface vehicle" to my Designer.
