How about slow fighters ? Move 8", not sure about points (don't have my
copy of
the FB here for reference). It's always struck me as slightly
incongruous that
attack and torpedo fighters have the same speed as interceptors.
Low agility fighters - lose their secondary move ? Would be quite a big
penalty,
so the points deduction should reflect this.
