Plus, if you are leaning towards fix recharge times, my suggestion is
not 
really necessary - it was just that, one suggested alternative.

Actually I HAVE been fiddling with a SORT of Space Combat FMA - actually

Aerospace FMA, sort of FT FMA and DS II in space.  The intention is to 
create a fighter-level aerospace combat game with fighters that are
fully 
compatible in design with DS II fighter rules, so that if someone WANTS
to, 
they can have people playing 2 concurrent games - DS II and the fighter
game 
(tentatively called Full Afterburners), with the fighters able to enter
the 
DSII game to add air support.  Currently the biggest obstacle is coming
up 
with a way to convert FT movement rules into 3D for atmospheric combat
(The 
idea is to allow either movement while in space, but a 3d form of
cinematic 
in-atmosphere) and my reticence t put too much effort into DS II 
compatibility since that sytem seems on ther cusp of a major revamp.
