I know I've seen this before on these forums: has anyone tried in play the quick fix that instead of 1 hit per Rcl, it's 10% of RoF hits per Rcl? The idea is to "fix" Spaceships' use of RoF over time, so maybe I"d limit this house rule to that situation.

So, say I have VRF beam and 3-minute turns. RoF is 1,000. Bonus is +10. Rcl is 1. For every point of MoS, I receive 100 hits.

Hmmm...maybe that's too generous. Maybe 5% of RoF is better, so every point of MoS is 50 hits. It's definitely better than hitting 10 times out of 1,000 shots!
