RE: MT Missile Questions

Yeah, I had wondered at what point Wild Weasels and Bogeys became
useful.
Has anyone experimented with expanded ECM rules or C&C squadron rules
ala
BABYLON 5 WARS FLEET ACTION?

Our group dealt with MT missiles using extra Bogey decoys and a new
system 
called bogey ecm.  It allowed you to alter the mass rating of your ship
to 
long range scans until you were ID'd with sensors.  Made the capital
ships 
more difficult to home in on.
  Also borrowed a Star Fleet Battles system called the "Expanding Sphere

Generator".  It destroys any missile or fighter coming in contact with
it.  
System charges like the Wavegun and it's use must be plotted ahead of
time.
