Ship Frames
These stat blocks are the basic stats for ships. These 'frames' can be enhanced with upgrades.
Cost
Frames have a base price. If you opt to add upgrades to your ship, the total cost of the ship is the frame price, plus the price
of any upgrades you add. Upgrades may be added to ships in later turns. Upgrades that are removed give no refunded resources back.
Upgrades
Ships have multiple upgrade 'slots'. Small slots offer a +1 to any stat, medium +2, large +3.
Fuel upgrades are an exception - Small: +2, Medium: +4 (-1 ballistic def., -1 shield def), Large: +8 (-2 ballistic def., -2 shield
def)
