transporting andro satellites

5V1a2 seems to list the size of satellites, e.g a cobra is a medium satellite.

5V1b2 says a medium satellite costs 4 pwer to transport. It appears to be equal to the hanger size of the satellite.

the example under 5V1b2 shows a cobra being transported for 3 (cost of small satellite). Which is correct, the example, or 5V1a2. I'm guessing the example if wrong.

good guess.

I'll also guess that the energy cost of using the transporters on a SatBase is 0.5, and on a BATS is 1.5?

Nevermind. I thought you were asking the cost to transport those bases, but that's not what you're asking. Sorry.

the cost to transport those bases
Answered *that* question in a game earlier this evening.

A SatBase costs 40 points to transport - 8 for the final run-in to range zero, 8 for phasers, and 24 for four overloaded hellbores.

That transported it very efficiently into the hereafter, at any rate... :)
