I'm of a dissenting opinion. As this list proves, there is lots of room
for
extra rules in FT, such as dockyards, casements, new weapons, new
fighters,
etc. I don't have a problem with a little more added complexity.

What I DO have a problem with is the "must upgrade at all costs"
mentality
that I'm seeing vis a vis Full Thrust. If you like Full Thrust as it is,
why
worry that the next version is more complex? Just play FT2 and don't
bother
buying FT3. Why is everyone assuming that when FT3 comes out no one will
want to play FT2?
