Re: [FT]Star Trek rules?

One thing I thought was scarry was that every rule in the book had to
take into
account every other rule.

 There is no concept of a "standard" way to handle things....The way
FT/ect.
does things makes the game flow much better, and faster.  Something I
like.

Ah...a better way to discribe things...

FT is "Compartmentalized"  That is, every section only concerns itself
with its
part of the game.  Where as SFB every section is conserned with every
other
section...makes things very messy.

Shows that the game was written by engineers or lawyers...
