	My only concern so far for Wing Commander conversion is Wing
Commander
is a fighter based game, the fighters may need be consider as small
ships 
instead of under current rule of fighters. (Then again, I don't have
More 
Thrust, so I cannot tell the rule there will help or not.) For example: 
Broadswords, and Avengers maybe consider a 5 ton ship? I don't think
shield rule
need be rewritten since it's pretty close to how the Wing Commander set
it up.

	I may just go to buy the Wing Commander trillogy so I can go
back and
count 
the number of guns on those big capital ship.. :)
