*bleck*  I read it.  What a limited rule set.  No gravity wells,
planets,
moving boards, asteroids even.	Full thrust rules!

You did see the *collectable* part right?  *sigh*  I hate games that
limit
your ability to play based on your wallet.  I'd love a Mon Cal fleet
that
I don't have to paint but not at "uncommon" prices.

And Jon?  Yet another "thank you!" for a game that doesn't require only
your minis, painted in approved army colors.  I love your minis but
can't paint myself into a corner.  Hence the prepainted plastic.
