Back in the pre-FB days I had small, medium and large torp tubes 
which used D4, D6 and D8 for their to hit and damage rolls. The value 
needed to hit at a given range was the same. Hence the small launcher 
couldn't hit at those ranges that needed a 5 or 6. Haven't reworked 
it for the Fleet Book design system yet.
