Subject: Full Thrust on Computer !?

Hi Folks,

I love playing FT, but most the time I'm lacking opponents in my Town here in
Germany. So I thought of doing some programming to create some battles on my
PC. I only wanna Put some ships on sreen, be able move them and then checking
out the Combat normally (with dice). Strange but Now after a few month It is
gone beyond it, The programm got some

graphics, sound, battle routines and an pretty easy AI.

I would like to post it on the net, to see what other Players thing to it, but
first I have to check out what Jon's opinion of the programm. The Rules are
Copyrighted, and as far I know I need permission of him. Is he reading this
Mailing list?

greetings

Alex

> Hi Folks,

He is indeed. Sounds great, just what we've looked for. It won't stop me
buying the miniatures though and playing on a board. Could be great for long
range games though.

If you'd like to contact him direct I beleive his email is

Yep, playing on an board is a complete different.- Gimme the the choice
I would do playing on an board. more comunication and an other "feelig"
to look at the table/floor with the Counters than at a Monitor.
But its very nice for checking out battles etc.
