I've thought about it. The problem is that FT doesn't have altitude
while
Space 1889 requires it. I suppose it wouldn't be too hard to graft an
altitude system onto FT, but is it worthwhile? Wouldn't it be easier to
play
Sky Galleons of Mars? The one thing I like about Sky Galleons is the way
it
handles crew losses from different parts of the ship.

However, Ironclads and Ether Flyers isn't a particularly good game
(takes
forever!). An FT conversion for pre-dreadnoughts might be neat
(especially
since I have more than 50 painted pre-dreadnought figures).
