Hmmm... Recoil - now there's an idea. I like it. However, I don't think there should be a possibility of a ship breaking up under strain unless the packet has been launched at a higher speed than the MD rating. Think of it as the ship mounted mass driver equivalent of over-gating.

The only potential difficulty I see is when the MD ship is in a fleet. Ideally, only the MD ship should suffer from recoil and, recoil will need to be less than the first year travel of the packet. I do think though that mass driver ships should be required to have cargo space and only be able to launch packets as large as their holds are.

Though we often ask how and why, we must also do to get the answers to the questions.
