Point Defence

Okay, putting some scaling rules in, but keeping them simple. However, also adding rules to allow dedicated picket ships to intercept attacks meant for other targets...

You could either add in software to tie together multiple ships defenses (aka Aegis fleet defense), or you could wave your hand and say ships of the 52nd century have enough computer power to do this.

I don't think a dedicated fleet defense 'appliance' is required for each ship. Or if so, it should be one ship that ties all other ships together so they don't need one.

And I'd say for ships that are tied together they get to use all of their defensive fire against incoming missile and small craft attacks. Space hedgehogs!!!
