but its EXPENSIVE! in a fast-paced PBW game where you're locked up in relatively small space you simply cannot afford it.

The difference in cost for larger ships is minimal (small compared to total cost of the ship), and often does not even change the build time of the ships at all. I have never had problems affording MCs in any games where I have needed them (even in fast-paced PBW games where you're locked up in relatively small space).

Nah... you need Phasing Cloak and that device that lets you take 2 turns instead of one each round. Decloak and fire. Use the extra move to cloak again before they get a chance to go.
