I'm nigh unto saying damn the torpedoes.  But I have a question.  I want
to 
start playing FT.  Besides FT itself, wqhat do I need to be up to date
per 
rules (Not necessarily designs)?  Does MT add supplemental rules, or
replace 
certain rules, or both?  What about the Fleet Books?  Alll designs, or
rules 
revisions too?	It can be daunting to think of needing many books at
once 
(although I've been offered help in that regard).  I might suggest the 
creation by GZG of a compendium - an advanced version of FT that
includes 
the revisions and additions of rules from the other books.  Not only
would 
it help a rookie get into the game, it might be a handy reference for
you 
seasoned spacer.
