Maybe we could try an approach like:
 
For each velocity increment  of 16  we could double the effective mass
of the ship.
 
So a ship moving 0 to 16 requires 1 unit of power to turn or increase by
1 unit
A ship moving 17 to 32 requires 2 unit of power to turn or increase by 1
unit
A ship moving 33 to 48 requires 2 unit of power to turn or increase by 1
unit
Etc.
 
Been about 5 years since I moved away from the group I played with...
