	Which one?  There are so many.	
	These rules work pretty much like all the other FT systems:
--Pulse Cannons are represented by beam batteries. 
--There is a Heavy Energy Beam Weapon that needs recharging and doles
out heaps 'o damage.
--The younger powers use true vector movement, the Minbari use a version
of the normal FT rules.  
--Interceptors work like screens and can be set to shoot down fighters.
--It uses a new and unique damage system.  It's not totally disimilar
than the FT system, but their are some noticable differences.
--Fighter rules have some new goodies.

	No, the scope of the game occurs years before the Shadows became
an
issue.

	Narn, Centauri, Minbari.
