Nah, that Eclipse's less than 18 klicks long...

Remember that FT is a generic system. Note the get-out phrase
"in a given background" regards the 100 tonnes to 1 MASS rule
on FB1 pg 10. Bear in mind that in cinematic we throw a large
chunk of Newtonian physics out of the window, and you can
paint your ships as large as you wish.

>From the little I recollect of the StarWarts RPG, the Eclipse
statistics are such that the table is more likely to collapse
due to the number of dice on it. Given a strong table, the
floor area around it will soon resemble a creche, with dice
underfoot rather than small squashy objects (and no I don't
mean babies!)
