This is an interesting idea, I can see where this could be used. So, I have some thoughts.
How about this, you get 5% of the total combined resource cost(both di and tri) back as supply? Maybe this would be to much micro but how about the player gets a convoy? You get 1 cargo ship and 1 runabout per 100 crew and the runabouts would be handled just like a squad and then could be used to draw fire from escaping ships. Ofcourse forcing you to protect the convoy or you lose them if a ship is destroyed. Though right now there are no cargo ships ingame yet since trading hasn't been put back in yet so, for now just use the miners as gettaway ships. It would be much better than the other option which would be a swarm of shuttles then again do it that way and you could actually lose less in certain situations. Have it be a random thing? Like a station has 200 crew, you would either get 2 cargo ships and two runabouts or 1 cargo, 2 runabouts and 4 shuttles ooorrr 8 shuttles and 2 runabouts.
