Topic: Fighter max?

I dowloaded the Starmada X rules the other day (brand new Starmada player that I am) and have a question about Fighter Bay limits.
I worked out a ship design by hand that had 12 fighter bays and the math worked on paper.  I then tried to transfer that same design to the SXCA and it wouldn't recognize any number of Fighter Bays higher then 10.  Did I miss something in the rules that limits the amount of Fighter Bays a ship may have or is this just a limit on SXCA itself??  Thanks...

Nope, you didn't miss anything in the rules. The max of 10 is just an arbitrary limitation of the SXCA.

That is, an arbitrary limit of putting the fighters in at that line.
Just go down to the next equipment row and add another 2...

or 10... lather, rinse, repeat
