I have a few questions about Fleet Book 2.
1. FB2, page 4:...any fighter carrying ship may only RECOVER fighter groups
equal to HALF its number of operational fighter bays in any one turn.
When figuring HALF, do you round up or round down? Or do you save the fraction
and carry it over to the next turn?
2. FB2, page 4 lists different fighter types. I noticed that in an earlier
book, these types can be mixed and matched. For example, you
can have a long-range attack fighter. However, FB2 doesn't mention
mixing these types. Is mixing the types not allowed any more?
Thanks.

It was never explicitly allowed in MT, though some people assumed it was
possible and other people assumed it wasn't. The problem is that the
costs aren't really linear - a heavy torpedo fighter and a standard
fighter really ought to cost more than a heavy fighter and a torpedo fighter,
for example.
If you want to be "official", don't combine types. But we don't tend to
worry about being "official" here... :-)

Hi,
I would have to say that you have to round UP otherwise a ship with only one
operational fighter bay could not recover its own fighters. Personally I don't
like the idea of carrying over fractional bays mostly because I don't like the
idea of fighter groups being only fractionally recovered.
Cheers, Tony.
