When did Full Thrust become a simulation (!)
Trying to make Full Thrust a simulation by pissing about with ship
construction or other core rules is like trying to build the Sydney
Harbor bridge out of meccano.

Empire Napooleonics is a simulation. Empire players tend to be very
sombre and serious.
Full Thrust is a SF-based miniatures game. Full Thrust players have
smiles on their faces and cheer when they roll sixes.

Try racing a model T ford at Indianapolis.
