I can see this more or less working, but I suspect it would still slow
things down a bit much. Might well be worth looking into.

Just that - each available point of thrust you don't use in movement is
"evasive thrust" which gives you some sort of defensive effect (negative
modifiers to attack dice, most likely, maybe one per two or three
points).

Noam has a somewhat different version of this.
