All the Beam Weapons section mention are the arcs of fire, nothing
mentioning Aft or any other name for other arcs. Most of us know what
Aft means, but rules that are introductory should not be so assuming.
Or, do not mention Aft and let people fire in any direction they want
whether they used thrust points or not.
I think it should mention that a fractional part of an inch of a range
should be rounded up. Example: 12.3" is rounded to 13".
When sample SSDs are added its going to be two pages anyway.
Should any other system descriptions be added? IMO, systems that are
common to most human SSDs: FTL drive, PDS (doesn't have to say HOW it
works against fighters and missiles, just that it is the PDS' primary
purpose), Armor (should give some defense specifics besides Hull).
Are these rules the basis of any "real" FT Lite rules that GZG might
put out?
