Ummm....
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't "8" the maximum thrust 
allowed?  You're design calls for "12" thrust.
Granted, this doesn't really answer your question--previous
messages have already given stellar reasons why a pod
swarm, while interesting, is _not_ the fleet you want.	It
would only work in a one-off game, and even then, only once
against any given opponent. 
Every time I've played we use the "max of 50% of the ships
from any one class" rule.  I think it's a little more realistic.
No self-respecting fleet would be made up of nothing but 
scout-sized vessels.
Out here.
