When the update come in this is all we played. What we discovered is that
it evolved more sluggish, big ships with all weapons optimised for a
single arc.

Never played it but have played B5 Wars and A Call to Arms. I think it's
too limiting in amount of turning.

> 3) 1 thrust point allows rotation by up to 2 course points (60 degrees).

Of the three I like this the most. It allows thrust 6 ships to rotate 180
and limits thrust 2 ships. My problem is that I think thrust 4 ships
become the best balance and therefore the default.

I wonder if it's too complicated to add a new system, thrusters, and take
turning out of the MD equation.
