RE: Fighter Re-grouping as per DS2 rally

How about doing something like a DS2 rally?
Give a value for each squadron fragmentbased on quality:
Aces	 1
Average  2
Turkeys  3
Add up the total for all fragments trying to combine, roll a d6 and if
you
exceed the total, they've combined.

e.g. a)  2 fragments of average quality fighters want to combine.  One
has 2
fighters, the other 3.	The quality number for each is 2, so to
successfully
combine, the player must roll 5 or 6.  

e.g. b) a lone ace wants to join up with a squadron of 4 average
fighters:
1 for the ace plus 2 for the squadron equals 3, so he succeeds on a 4 or
better.

3 average fragments could _just_ join up in a single turn, but it's more
likely to take a couple of turns to get the required score

I'd also agree that mixing averages and turkeys should produce turkey
squadrons.
Successful regrouping should cost a point of combat endurance.
