RE: [EFSB, FT] Emines and beam costs

I think this is mostly because the original conversion work was under
FT2.0
& hasn't been majorly changed since then with regard to some of the
details.
I haven't really looked at the EFSB->FB conversion stuff, I've left that
to
the Shipbuilders Guild.
(Funnily enough, I've never applied to join, even though the original
conversion was mine...)
