Other than having to redesign all the existing ships, cool. Will you be able
to turret pulse torpedos and AA mega guns for 10? Wave Guns for 20? (shudder)

Someone suggested a ship with casement guns be allowed to roll to bring
port/starboard guns to bear in the opposite arc. This is a good idea. I
would suggest that a ship that does this maneuver may only engage targets in
one firing arc. Also that it must reserve 1 thrust point to perform the
maneuver.

While you are changing the rules, how about adjusting classes as follows:
Escorts:   1 -  33 tons
Cruisers: 34 -  66 tons
Capitals: 67 - 100 tons

As you can tell, I'm a fan of small fast ships. Unfortunatly, the current FT
rules pushes designers toward the big brutes.
