I don't see the relationship between size and thrust.  Why does
your thrust 4 tiny ship get a better mod than my thrust 6 FSE BDN?

Well, my suggestion was for unused thrust, assuming that thrust was
employed for evasion.

There does seem to be a disagreement as to which would be more
important,
size OR thrust, and I claim neither side is obviously right. History has
plenty of examples where reality was stranger than suppositions, even
the
scientifically based ones. Occasionally, the popular/populist view even
can
be correct. ;->=

However, I'd still like to suggest that the optional system could
explain
and cover either, or both, and use extra dice rolls and/or modifiers.

In the end, though, I agree the FT granularity has the to-hit include
lock-on. The optional system for those more likely right than I.
