Fleet Supply

Fleet Supply
This area determines the maximum fleet size of (non-Fighter) ships. Should the number of ships ever exceed this, except during a space battle, ships must be discarded down to the fleet supply limit.

Fleet Supply Upkeep
In the Strategy Phase, any player with a Fleet Supply in excess of 8 must spend resources equal to the excess. Lower the Fleet Supply accordingly if part or all of the excess cannot be paid.

Fleet
A fleet is defined as all spaceships (Fighters, Cruisers, Carriers, Dreadnoughts, Destroyers, War Suns and Flagships) controlled by one player in one system at any given time.

Fighters do not count towards Fleet Supply, unless they are Advanced Fighters and are not supported by a Carrier, War Sun, or Space Dock (or Domain Counter effect).
