How to use different opacity levels and alpha blending?

Hi dudes! I'm doing a 2D engine where my polygons are just quads with a texture. If I add an alpha channel and I activate blend glEnable (GL_BLEND); glBlendFunc (GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA); everything works as I expect, but now I would like to add a general opacity property in my meshes that I could change "on the fly". What should I do? Any suggestion? Thanks a lot for your time.
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.

why not just play with the color alpha of the vertex? with this blend function it should directly effect the opacity.
