Hello 

The system I use for FTL cappable fighters is to allocate the same 
points per fighter as fitting a FTL drive on a mass 2 ship.
I worked this out to be 6 points.
This might sound cheap but don't forget the limited endurance 
factor and we don't allow FTL fighters to jump back in a second 
time during the match.
This does change gameplay some what in that players allocate which 
fighter groups and on which turn they will jump in before the game 
starts.
It works a bit like the X-wing/Tie fighter computer games.
Groups of torpedo bombers jump in fire torps and then jump out.
Makes it quite interesting.
