Keith left the northeast to work out in Arizona, so
he's not been
at the ECC convention for a number of years. His
Solar Thrust
games were quite good, running one in ECC II and
another at ECC III.
Check out his web page at:
http://www.exodusproject.com/
He uses fuel for thrust expenditures and more physics
focused
weapons systems for his ships, such as missiles with
X-Ray
laser warheads and short range laser or kinetic
weapons.

Thanks Jon. At first glance Keith's approach appears
to be more complicated that I was looking for, but I
relish the opportunity to feast on such a banquet of
information.
Also thanks to everyone else who put me on the trail
to Keith's site.
Jacob
