=== PF Tenders ===

Here are a few basic rules about SFC carriers:

* PF Tenders in SFC can carry a max of 4 PFs (Pseudo-Fighters)
** 4 groups of 1 PFs
* there can be no more than 4 PFs.

Because of these limitations, PF Tenders from SFB require some conversion rules.

* Multiply the number of PFs by 2/3. Drop the fractions.
** if there are only 2 PFs, or 1 PF, don't do the 2/3. Use that number.
* set up ONLY the basic Interceptors
** Interceptors are worth 10 BPV each
** exception: bases! Give bases a decent PF Flotilla.
* increase the BPV of the ship by the value of the interceptors


All SFC:OP races with PFs get basic Interceptors, worth 10 BPV. They do vary slightly, but they are very fragile and can easily be killed.


=== Casual PF Tenders ===

It is possible to install 'mechlinks' to ships not designated as PF Tenders. These mechlinks can only be added after PFs have become available. They cost 1 BPV each and there can only be 2 of them.

In a case like this, the value of the ship would increase by 22 BPV: 2 mechlinks and 2 Interceptors (10 BPV each).

Note: I gave the Lyran and TigerHeart ships casual PFs on just about all ships! Bewarned! 
Also, I have Casual PFs on all Fast Cruisers of the races that can have PFs. ie: Romulan or Gorn fast cruisers.


==== Example SFB conversion ====

The Lyran PFW has 6 mech-links and can carry 6 PFs.

* 6 * 2/3 = 4
* set up 4 groups of 1 intercetor
* add 40 BPV to the value of the ship
