Re:[FT] Quick Reference Sheet for Newbies

I've been working on a FT reference sheet for new players.  Basically
it's a
table showing the icons of each system, their names, and a brief outline
of the
associated rules.  I should have it finished this weekend and posted to
my site
early next week.  I'll keep the list informed.

With a bit of luck, I might be running a FT demo/participation game at
CANCON
in January. It would mean not playing in the FT comp, but them's the
breaks.

I was wondering though if anyone has a concise quick reference sheet for
FT,
dealing with the basic rules, with diagrams etc that is available on the
web.

Simple things like:

Basic Cinematic Movement
Beam mechanics ( especially vs shields)
Torpedo mechanics (maybe - see below)
Threshold checks and repairs

..and that's about it. Missiles, fighters etc could be omitted for a
demo game.
