As Oerjan (or one of the other number crunchers out there), he`ll
explain
how a large ship is more effective due to the ability to take dammage
with
less chance of threshold rolls taking out your weapons compaired to
small
ships. If you use one of the ways people have discribed, it gives small
ships a chance to even up the odds. Of course, you have to be careful
not to
swing the balance too far the other way.
