Forbid class 1 and larger beam weapons, only use missile armanent.
Allow
fighters to be launched in pairs, instead of sixes. Perhaps upgrade
fighters
slightly in toughness. Use the sensor rules and let visual ID range be
about
6" on the table top. Use plenty of neutrals and innocents with radios
that
don't work, are pointing the wrong direction or are on the wrong
frequency,
or they speak in a different language. Just a few suggestions, feel free
to
use them or not.
