[GZG] Threshold checks - how I do them



This seems like a minor innovation but I've found it speeds up threshold
checks by a factor of two or more.

When you have a ship to check for threshold damage, take your pen/pencil
in the right hand and a d6 in the left hand. (Or swap if you're
left-handed, of course). Move the pen to point at each system in turn,
roll the die as you get to a new system, and cross through it if the
roll indicates damage.

In my experience most players start off by rolling the die, picking up
the pen, crossing off the system, putting down the pencil, picking up
the die again... which takes a lot longer.
