Re: [FT] Exactly how popular is Full Thrust?

That was a the kind of question I get from newbies in SF war games.  I
(now) always tell new players who ask about nukes before a game about
them ("Does he have them?"  "His side has them."  "Do I?" "Is it listed?

No?  I guess you weren't issued one...." interesting to watch their mind
churning after that one.... 

LOL!  I have had new players toss nukes and blink when 'nothing happens'
and it's easy to forget that newbies don't know all the jargon.  Funny
how quickly players (new/grognard) will  toss Nukes in a game if they
think the othe side can't respond or is vulnerable....
