    Regarding characters in the National Lists

    Q. If I am fielding a character, does the character’s points value get added to the ship before or after the 20% Veteran calculation?

    I am assuming before, but you know what assume does…

    Before – but now you got me thinking…

    And on my millionth rereading of the rule book, I discover that you add the characters after calculating upgrades and experience.

    This is relatively straightforward except for merchant ships.
    So the process is as follows:

      Choose ship

    Select upgrades
    Total points
    -20% for inexperienced or +20% for veteran
    Round up to get total

    But large or small merchant is:

      Choose ship (inexperienced bonus already reflected in points listed)

    Select upgrades
    Total upgrade points
    -20% for inexperienced
    Add to ship cost
    Round up to get total

    Straightforward?

    This does mean that a fleet list will always total to tens, 490 or 1000
