Our group has talked about purchasing additional rotation at the same
cost of the Main Thrust, but only for rotating - not accel. BTW we use a
house rule of actually using up 2 Thrust for each point of rotation (a
ship with a Thrust of 4 may make a 4 pt. accel; a 1 pt turn and 2 pt
accel; or a 2 pt turn - not a 2 pt turn and 2 pt accel as the FT
rulebook indicates). You can only purchase additional rotation to give a
max of your ships Thrust Rating.
