Bren,
This sounds like a good idea. If your force structure is such
that
"capital" ships rarely appear, it should make for a better game. This
is one
those things that you just have to playtest. All the "thought
experiments" in
the world aren't going to give you a definitive answer. I don't see any
real
problems with it from this end. So give it a go and let us know how it
worked
out.
