Roger,
My suggested modifiers deal only with size
(Paragraph 2, small ships are smaller and thus
harder to hit. This does bring up the personal
viewpoint of the sender about how a 'beam' functions,
I.E. is a beam a broad 'flashlight' or a spot 'lazer
pointer'.), thrust rating was not considered.
The comments in paragraph one refer to the
'unused thrust' as a shooting/lock on modifier
during combat.
Bye for now,
John L.
