On a static table, high speed is not as important. In vector, high
speed is *much* less important, as you can always turn to face your
target. Vector also lets you focus on narrow arc weapons--eg B3,
B4--because you don't really need much arc to be able to hit your target
unless they're quite close. Beth and I and a couple others have a
playtest game coming up Real Soon Now (been pending for about 18 months
IIRC) to prove this point.
