   Excellent points.  I would stick to tying it to mass since mass,
size, and
 capability are pretty tightly linked in this system.
   One thing, I would tend to also allow all weapons to fire at fighters
as 
 well just to prevent the oddness of fighters being invulnerable just by
not
 attacking.  Of course, if you were to use both concepts, you'd have to
tweak
 the lethality of weapons fire versus fighters.
