This sections of the rules is only clear on the 4 CIM and 4 Banebots mix. It clearly explains the exact number for each of those, but for FPs and Window motors, it only explains the TYPE of motor that can be used.
I assume the intent of the wording is to suggest the use of only 1 FP, but it isn't crystal clear, and I'd also like to know EXACTLY how many FP motors we can use.
