There are any number of possible methods to deal with that. Hust a
matter of defining a rule.

How about: attacker and defender each allocate half the hits ? With any
extra hit allocated by the attacker.

As to the matter of handling heavy fighters under such a scheme: how
about doubling the average number of hits / PDS, put requiring 2 hits
to kill a normal fighter, 3 for a heavy, 1 for a light one ?

Or: Light fighters have to be removed first, heavies last ?
