Never fear, Hexx.
You get PFs, and they don't.
Also, there are rules that limit the use of BCH's. In SFB, these were special enforcer ships used by the overlord to punish those ports a little slow in the tribute departmet and to keep his band of merry men in line. Thus they will be limited.
No faction may have more than one BCH on the board at one time. And, if you are killed in your BCH, then you may not fly it again during that phase of the campaign. (Die early in phase two, you'll need to wait until phase three to try again.)
