Alot of this depends on how you envision SM's. You see them
as standard ordanance. From the masses as extrapolated from
from the rules I would say that a SM is mass 3-4 with 6
missiles.
How would I do it? I would let each Heavy carry 2 SM submunitions,
give them a 6" range. Roll for missiles on target following
steps just like SG. (IE 11-12 missiles roll d12, 9-10 roll
d10, etc). Give them weakened fighter abilities but let them
go in with their missiles.
This is still really nasty but not as excessive. Giving me a
gaurantee of a salvo per fighter means I will instantly drop
every other offensive weapon I have in favor of these.
