Assuming there are no small ships to soak damage that thrust 2 ship has to be in 1 of 3
places.  Those places are close enough that I can easily narrow my choice of SM placements
to two.  A placement  that covers a left turn of one and a placement that covers a right turn of one.
Both will cover the no turn option.  The ships actual thrust is so small as to be fairly irrelevant.

And I can probably narrow it down to one placement by table configuration and my estimate
of my opponents best strategy.

It's pretty hard to get a thrust 2 to 24 without flying out of the battle anyway.

What absolutely wipes out a SM player is K'rvak.  The dodge circle is huge.

(Did not work out the math on the thrust 6 ship but I bet the possible location circle is much bigger.)

And the velocity. A Thrust 6 ship poking along at speed 4 isn't as safe as a Thrust 2 ship at speed 24.
