Jinking, no... rolling to distribute the energy an enemy's beam weapons
can transmit to a single area thus attenuating the damage... sure.  So
these ideas of using "spare" thrust to make it more difficult to hit
could be PSB'd into doing just that...

Personally, I'm not too keen on the thrust modifying the lock-on rolls,
but I do like the sensor vs. ecm approach for lock-on rolls.
