As Laserlight said the basic Full thrust rules would likely fit on 4 A4 
pages.

Each of the listed technology types would fit on 2-3 pages each.

Most of the pages of the rule books come from the descriptions of the ships.

If GZG is primarily a miniatures company I'd be using the website to publish 
stats for each ship that gets released. Nothing like new stat lines to help 
sell the models.

I'd also be really interested in what happened to the FT universe timeline. 
This would provide a context for the new ships and how they have been built. 
I'm guessing that the Kra'Vak got beaten back from human space otherwise 
there would be no human shipyards to make the new ships.

Are the new ships being developed to lead the push into KV space? Would warm 
the bones of most human Admirals to think of massed human fleets finally 
getting to take to the KV in their own territory.

It would also be nice to have a universe where the timeline could progress 
and isn't simply more things happening at the same time.
