Sometime ago I suggested an optional rule that would allow launch
facilities and
fighter bays to be purchased seperately. If memory serves correctly it
was 9
Mass / 27 points (same as FB Hangers) for Launch Bays and 6 Mass / 18
points for
Hanger Bays. You could launch in one turn as many fighter squadrons as
you had
Launch Bays. I am working from memory here and the values may not be
exact. If
anyone has the post or wishes to search the Archives I'd appreciate it.
