The further you move the harder you are to hit, so you can use all your movement points and not get the defensive modifier if you don't get to accelerate to a good speed, and yeah you'd have to drop some stuff to run a bigger engine in the firefly. Also no the game doesn't consider shape or size for how hard you are to hit.
Sad. Shape and size are the flat out biggest difference in any real situation. Oh well, nothing's perfect. Glad to hear you're enjoying it so far however. I suppose you'll get to see just how much a difference it's stats make next time you run it though. Prepare for the overcompensation.
I am splitting up all my thoughts too much and it's aggravating even me, yet I do not know how to fix it right now. Uhhg.
