Re: Pre-measuring things

Hi all,
I'll just unlurk from the depths of space in which I've been hiding to
give 
my take on the pre-measuring issue...
Okay, so hi-tech ships would have advanced tactical/plotting systems,
but 
they'd also have some pretty serious EW if they expected not be venting 
atmosphere in short order, so not measuring/plotting predicted moves is
how 
I personally like it. And my MK I's aren't too hot - I definitely don't 
have a sniper's eye : )
I always thought that the players' brains were where all the high tech 
battle computer, intership net, sensors, rangefinding gizmos, battle
plot 
etc resided, and the rules just made it fun to play out our fantasies of

starship command. Not that I'm against pre-measuring on principle, I
just 
don't think that the tech argument for it holds water.
Chris.
