Subject: Beth's latest poll
Movement: Vector (like there is any other...)
Duration of Game: typically less than 8 turns (though probably 2-4 turns
in
battle). usually the closing action with a wee bit of sparring, then
either
two passes with a break in between or a pass followed by a turn in for a
close range knife fight. Generally if one side would like to hold open
range, unless it has a thrust advantage, it can't. The other side knows
it
has to close and does so, taking licks along the way. I haven't yet seen
BOTH sides wanting to hold open range.
Ship Damage: usually you can tell who won. unless we're doing a scenario
with specific victory conditions, most times there is a decisive
conflict
and one side is reduced to non-viable (at fleet level) combatant status
Table: Floating sometimes, Fixed sometimes (but sometimes its a floor so
that's large or a 6x10 table)
