Another option, IF you want to modify fighters, might be to change how 
fighters move and intercept ships.  Maybe a movement system similar to
how 
Missiles move (I can't remember if it would be more like MTM's or SM's,
I'm 
not at my books), or a variation of that would work.  You could require 
fighters to commit to a certain vector, say any given 30' wedge out from

their current position, BEFORE ship movement, and then after ships move
the 
fighters can go after anything in that wedge - it could simulate having
to 
commit to moving to a certain area of space, but still having speed and 
manouverability to adjust within that general course.
