I have not seen any yet, and am not very surprised. I was a
very avid 2300
AD/Star Cruiser player, and the differences between the two systems are
vast. Two that spring immediately to mind being that the maneuver drive
used
in 2300 is the FTL drive, who's speed and performance is affected (in a
STL
vs. FTL manner) by it's proximity to a gravity field. Second would be
that
the primary weapon systems for 2300 were long range detonation missiles,
with beam weapons assigned a short-ranged secondary mission, which seems
about the exact opposite of FT.
I do enjoy the 2300 game system, and do hope that the D20
conversion will
keep a lot of the flavor of the original. I also would be interested in
seeing any FT conversions that might exist, to see how these
differences,
which gives 2300 it's unique flavor, would be handled.

Hey all:
QuikLink's announcement that they going to publish a D20 version
of 2300,
has wetted my interest in Star Cruiser. Was there any Full Thrust
conversion
out there that I should know about?
Later,
