Most of the stuff I find is FTII, as opposed to 2.5...

One fellow actually keeps the square grid *shudder*.

Mark Siefert's Unofficial FT WWW Page, of which rumors of death are often
greatly exaggerated, has some links. It's merely resting.

Has anyone done SSD's for Phil Pournelle's 2.5 ship designs?

Those are just the first two entries of a Google of '"star wars" full thrust'.

IMNSHO, a few of Star Ranger's ships can be monsters; approach
appropriately. ;->=

Not trying to derail the discussion, but I thought I'd renew my request for
any Star Trek Next Gen and beyond ships and rules. As you can see above, I can
use a search engine, so mostly if you've been trying stuff out
recently, but haven't web-published, I'd be pleased to hear about it.
Closest thing I've got to a large set is still John Fu's from the last
millenium.

Thanks!

I use Dean's Crossover ships to teach FT at cons quite successfully. I mix and
match by giving each player one or two sheets of ships.

Doug: Dean's ships are ST:TOS. I use them as ST:TNG ships and add a
Enterprise-D
of my own design. You want to see that?

I cherish the designs as well, though I've an occasional weird problem
printing them out, as I've mentioned before. Firefox seems to be improving on
that, though.

The Imperial class SD is not the biggest ship I've ever run; comes close,
though. Course, I've still not designed the James H. Evans/Adam
Delafield ship, yet.

I would LOVE to see it!

John Fu had a D that could stand the comparison. Zoe Brain had a project going
to create designs for a lot of ST, including SFB and FASA designs,
though I think all TOS-based. I even sent bribes to try and keep it
going, but I think it fell by the wayside of RL.

John's list was posted here:

I've seen him post on BGG as recently as 2004, but haven't seen anything about
his FT designs since '98.
