I guess Alan is slightly confused here. You need the basic Full Thrust
book. Fleet Book 1 alone does not give a full game.

Well, if you're VERY familiar with FTII, the rewrite of FB1 is so
comprehensive, you get the feeling it's complete. Allen's statement is
understandable. I don't agree with it, though. ;->=

The problem now is that, given we basically have a 2.5 version game, a
new
player can be very daunted with a ruleset and fairly extensive addenda.
Certainly not the Star Fleet Battles situation, but worth considerating.

Before I bring up the necessity of the FT III several people have been
discussing, how goes BDS? ;->=
