	Agree.  IMC humans can be multi-class, and non-humans can be dual class.
I just took their great ideas, and eleminated the stupidity <G>

	Well, yes.  But even then its not gonna help keep the cost down much.
Remember, the most expensive elements of the fighter are gonna be the power
source (a pseudo-helm that works without a wizard), and some sort of
non-crewed weapon.  Wheather you use a magic balista that reloads itself,
or wands of fireball, or whatever, its still gonna be expensive.
	Sure, you can make the fighter's frame wimpy, but that increases the risk
that the very expensive engine and weapon don't come back.

	That would of course be the major problem.  I'd recommend that the
fighter's engines provide a minimum of SR 3 (possibly more), and have some
sort of magical after burners.
	Since a fighter isn't designed to go at full SJ speed, you could spend all
of the effort that (in a helm) goes into SJ speed for higher tac speed.
