Subject: 3rd Star from the Left?

I know this is a bit cheeky posting this to the FT list, but has anyone played
Third Star from the Left.

It's a freeware startship combat game on the net. I found it thanks to replys
I got posting here:)

It seems more complicated than FT, and probably a little less to do with
minatures. It uses a strange vector movement system, and I suspect is much
more like a traditional naval game.

What I like most about it is it has campaign rules, and would make a very
useful base for a PBEM game as everyone could be sent a copy of the rules.

So if the FT list feels it want's to discuss another game, please share your
experiences. Otherwise mail me direct, because I'm keen to discuss it further.
