Nobody said they were. The anti-fighter rules pop up in vector and
cinematic.
The point system is still primarily cinematic based, as vector is an
"optional" system. As such, any solution must first work in cinematic.
It
should also work in vector, as a system that works in cinematic but
completely
breaks down in vector is of zero use to those who prefer vector games.
But no fear, the playtest list has players who play in both modes, and
all
rules proposals are tested in both modes.
