True enough.  Just like you can simulate offense-heavy genres by varying
the restrictions  on weapon size or genres with 'true' grav vehicles
(the kind that can fly and handle their own orbital insertions) by
removing the armor restrictions on VTOLs.

(Just out of curiousity, has anyone experimented with allowing heavier
armor for aerospace vehicles?)
