I've goosed with the cloaking systems rules for a couple of fights,
mainly featuring the Venusians from Jovian Chronicles (they actually
do deploy that kind of system) and they are funky. You might want to
take a look at the mechanics though, they have this wonderful spot
where the ship that's cloaked can flub up on it's cloaking gear and
make himself visible (but not actually realizing so).

The reflex field.... I can agree with that one <grin>
