Heya~

I've been looking over Star-Ranger's specs for the Earth Alliance ships.
I'm just trying to figure out how much thrust they have, since I don't
understand the exact symbology.

Thanks.

Dean is using symbols from Chameleon Eclectic's Earth Force Source Book. Each
drive symbol generates two thrust points. So his Omega has a thrust of
4.

Yup, Mark has it right.

I did update the ships for use in the playtesting at ECC, they now have
regular thrust icons and use Grasers instead of the heavy beams also from the
EFSB. They will probably show up on my site later in a bit more
polished form for use in Sci-Fi Crossover 2005 for GenCon in August.

Man, wasn't even expecting that quick a response. Thanks!

Now I can get on converting the Artemis and Cronos into full thrust~
