Firing at Battle Cruisers and Battleships

[stevem]

The Base target numbers for Battleships and Battlecruisers are 6+ and 7+ respectively.

As both of these are of similar size, presumably the logic is that battlecruisers are moving faster, which is often the case, but this is not a factor when the BCs are reduced in speed. Has anyone tried using the rules with both 6+ and then have a speed modifier?

I was trying to stay away from speed modifiers for simplicity, but give it a shot if you think you would prefer it.

We played today with both battleships and battlecruisers on a base 6+, and then increased this to 7+ if moving 6 or more, it seemed to make more sense - after all battlecrusers are generally bigger than battleships.
