Yes, I definitely agree.  The vector movement system is hands-down
better than SX's.  Though my group is still interested in playtesting
the SX movement system (regular and vector) in order to fully get a feel
for "vanilla" SX gameplay, the general feeling is that we'll bastardize
FT's vector movement system onto SX's rules.
