Hey, don't drag me into this..... <grin>

Sometimes I think you guys have WAAAAY to much free time on your
hands.....
;-)

Seriously, if you want to split 'em up between yourselves, then fine - I
doubt that the canon background will ever get [officially] developed in
so
much detail that it'll pin down the location of every ship, and frankly
I
wouldn't want it to - it would be very restrictive on players.

Just bear in mind certain things......
1) I'm going to be steadily expanding the mini ranges, and that means a
lot
of new ship designs for minor powers to come (no, don't ask when,
they'll
be ready when they're ready!)
2) This may seem like sacrilege to some people, but the numbers of sales
listed in FB1 were just off the top of the head to give some "colour" to
the background bumf, and to give players who needed it the excuse to fit
almost any ship into their own fleets (I know it shouldn't normally
matter,
but it provides a loophole for those people who are unfortunate enough
to
have to play against the "it's not in the book, so you can't do it"
munchkins....).
