Speaking as a vachead... I reckon that this really comes into play very
strongly in FT. If I run one-off battles (as I will be next weekend), I
insist on FB-standard ships. If I can custom-design ships without
worrying about resupply, expendable ordnance and fighters (which seem, to me,
to be priced with the difficulty of resupply in mind) become vastly more
attractive; at which point, the standard ship doesn't have anything like
enough PDS.

This is one of the reasons why I like campaign games.
