[FT] Playing with Big Ship Models -Reply

> Just to make you guys and gals jealous I've played in a

I remember this in Practical Wargamer - really cool looking, are these
events still run? IIRC they scratch built a big FASA style klingon D10 and
used all the ERTL trek ships. The alien fleet was a Tizer (soda) bottle. The
crew had to wear gloves and helmets if there was a hull breach. There were
also event cards (are these the same a James Clay's FF cards)

FT would scale well for these sorts of games as it doesn't use a hex grid. The
FF games used squares taped on the school floor, hexes were too tricky.

You are correct, the coke bottle ship were our version of SFB's
Andromedans. They were a lot nastier than they look :-o.
Someone built a version of FASA's Rom Winged Defender, and weall started or
played in our own races after a while. The B'Krath fleet was built from paper
plates and lots of Hammerite paint! There were no event cards, there were
however damage cards to replace the SFB DAC (Damage Allocation Chart).

I still have a lot of the stuff as Jim Walman sold it off/gave it away a
few years ago. Doing an FT version could be a lot of fun. Definetely a project
for the summer.
