Is it redundant to have both a Maneuverability score and a cost associated with turning? Presumably clumsy ships will have both a low Maneuverability score and a high cost associated with turning, so it seems like such a ship is being penalized twice.
IMHO, it seems like you could get away with one or the other.
In any case, it also seems that there should either be a standard number of speed points, with costs for changing speed/heading varying from ship to ship; or a standard cost for changing speed/heading, with speed points varying from ship to ship. The second option means you only have one number per ship. Determining all three for each ship seems redundant.
Is there no longer a max speed? If you want one and you went with the second option above, you could make max speed = speed points for simplicity and so that your speed points have a physical meaning: the speed a ship can achieve, starting from rest, in the span of one turn.
And yet another word from our sponsors
