Sorry to reply to myself... okay the deal about GMS for one last time...

On page 11 of DS II, under the section WEAPON FIT LIMITATIONS:,
paragraph 4.

	"Note that this refers to DIRECT FIRE WEAPON ONLY (include SLAM 
	packs); other weapons such as Guided Missile System, Point
Defence, 
	etc. all occupy fixed amounts of capacity as listed in the
systems 
	table on P.16, regardless of whether they are turret-mounted or
not."

So... I guess all GMS/H cost 4 capacity points, and it can be either 
turrent or a fix mount depend on how the model display the GMS/H.
