sounds pretty good, but personally, we in our gaming community actually like the random part of the convoy scenario, we take it as a challenge, much like the random leadership thing.
if the attacker gets few ships, its a challenge for him to win, if he gets a lot, its a challenge to the defender, we like that because sometimes we beat the opponent against the odds (winning against a really massive attacker or managing to destroy the convoy with few ships, it does happen

)
and considering that such a hard-fought victory against all odds is pretty damn glorious, we like that.

we just try to ensure that it does not get too rough on one side, hence the 60 points for the heavy transports, making it easier for the attacker to achieve something with less ships...
and considering most of the people roll pretty crappy on the table, it usually turns out really fair
