FT Weapon systems

Hello from sunny England :)

So i'm shut up in doors painting minatures :)

Ok Needle beams. If you fire 2 needle beams at 1 system on a 
target vessel do you need a fire con for each needle beam?

And on the comments about FTL fighters. A mass 1 ship with just an 
FTL drive no thrust rating costs 3 points and 1 mass.
A mass 2 ship with just a FTL drive and no thrust rating costs 6 
points and 1 mass.
Therefore why not just say that FTL capable fighters cost 3-6 
points more per fighter.
They might seem cheap but don't forget the limited endurance 
factor.
This would probably work out like the X-wing/Tie fighter computer 
games.
Torpedo fighters jump in, launch torpedoes and then jump out again.

This would make a very different playing style. You would probably 
have to say on which turns fighters would jump in before starting 
play though ;)
