Instead of having a fixed maximum number of ships for each tier, factions have a shared pool of Fleet Capacity Points (FCP).

Each ship consumes a number of FCP depending on its grid size and tier. Factions may distribute their available FCP however they choose, allowing them to field a larger number of smaller ships, a smaller number of larger ships, or a mixed fleet.

Every faction starts with 100 FCP.

Each additional faction member adds 25 FCP, up to a maximum of 300 FCP.

Faction FCP = 100 + 25 per additional faction member, maximum 300 FCP.

Faction FCP by member count:
* 1 Member: 100 FCP
* 2 Members: 125 FCP
* 3 Members: 150 FCP
* 4 Members: 175 FCP
* 5 Members: 200 FCP
* 6 Members: 225 FCP
* 7 Members: 250 FCP
* 8 Members: 275 FCP
* 9 Members: 300 FCP
* 10 Members: 300 FCP

Tier 1: Small Grid [1 FCP] - 0>250 blocks, 35 Points
Tier 2: Small Grid [2 FCP] - 251>500 blocks, 50 Points
Tier 3: Small Grid [3 FCP] - 501>1000 blocks, 70 Points
Tier 4: Small Grid [4 FCP] - 1001>1500 blocks, 90 Points

Tier 1: Large Grid [10 FCP] - sub 1,250 Blocks, 85 Points
Tier 2: Large Grid [20 FCP] - 1,251 to 2,000 Blocks, 120 Points
Tier 3: Large Grid [35 FCP] - 2,001 to 3,000 Blocks, 160 Points
Tier 4: Large Grid [70 FCP] - 3,001 to 6,000 Blocks, 250 Points
Tier 5: Large Grid [TBD]: may be introduced if we get enough funding for the server

Standard Base: 500 Points, 15000 blocks max - No Gyros Allowed. Stations are defined by no gyroscope usage.
FOB: 700 points - (1 per faction) - No Gyros Allowed. Stations are defined by no gyroscope usage.
Jumpable Stations: Up to 10000 blocks - No Gyros Allowed. Stations are defined by no gyroscope usage.
Station Points includes surrounding defensive grids. This is to stop spamming of defensive installations.

Stations do not consume Fleet Capacity Points.

• FCP is shared across the entire faction and is not a per-player allowance.
  
• All faction ships count against the faction's FCP limit, regardless of their tier combination.
  
• Ships stored in Quantum Hangar still count towards the faction's FCP limit.
  
• Small Grid and Large Grid ships draw from the same FCP pool.
  
• Stations are governed by their own limits and do not consume FCP.
  
• Weapon Points and Fleet Capacity Points are separate systems.
  
• A faction may freely choose how to distribute its available FCP. There is no longer a fixed maximum number of ships per individual tier. Be mindful of server performances.
