Re: "Average" FT ship size?

Following a quick glance through my ship designs, it seems that an FB
ship
costs on average about 3.3 to 3.5 points per mass (this is for a
warship,
merchants are cheaper). So the 500 points per turn suggested by someone
would buy you around 150 mass of ship (ie one dreadnought, a BB and a
cruiser, five DDs etc)
