Weasel Systems

Hello,
    The original Full Thrust (II) rules included weasel drones and
ships.	Here is my attempt to adapt them to the Fleet Book rules.
    Weasel system.  For each point of mass devoted to Weasel system the
ship's signature will be 20 Mass points greater.  For example a 10 mass
ship with 1 mass Weasel system aboard will appear to be 30 mass to the
casual observer.  Weasel systems cost 5 * mass of system.  Therefore our
example ship would have to pay 5 points.
    Weasel Drone.  Essentially a Weasel system packed into a Standard
Missile body.  Appears to be a mass 20 unit.  Will fly parallel to
controlling unit.  Mass 2 cost 10.
    Weasel Decoy.  Similar in design to Drone but appears to be a larger
contact and lasts a shorter amount of time.  Usually used for counter
targeting.  Appears to be a Mass 60 unit and lasts for 3 rounds.  Will
fly parallel to launching unit or down an axis designated by the
controller at launch.
    Mass 2 Cost 10.
    Happy Spoofing.
