Concur,
SITS is great for 1-3 ships per player in some sort of skirmish. Try to fly fleets with it and the hair torn out coats the floor.

Subject: Re: [GZG] FT vector movement systems
I'll disagree on it adding much to the game. I like SITS/AV:T vector
movement better than FT as long as I'm only running a ship or
two. For fleets FT wins hands down.

It's not hard to produce a "real vector" system for FT. My assumptions
were:
(1) Ignore facing change time. Turns are probably around 5-15 minutes
long anyway. It's too much effort.
(2) Ignore the third dimension. It looks pretty but it doesn't add all
that much to the game.
What's left is the continuous-thrust element. Not a problem. You do need
two markers per ship to work out its movement, but you only need to
leave one of them on the table between movement phases.
