The odds of that happening are pretty low, especially if you're zipping along
at a high speed already and hence the ship's formation
is loose enough to allow maneuver at those speeds - the faster you go,
the looser your formation will be. Remember the granularity of FT is
based on d6s.  So anything that's got a more than 1/36 chance of
happening is difficult to model.

A "roll 5d6, and if they all come up ones, there's a chunk of debris that
makes an attack on a ship within 2", resolve as a missle attack" mechanic is
inelegant, and so unlikely to produce a result that most players would ignore
it.

Less. Obviously I meant less. Just switched to night shift, not all neurons
are firing.
