Macro Rules

go to google or your favorite search engine, plus in "full thrust" and
"campaign".

If you mean Official Rules, no, not yet. This will, I imagine, be in

Weren't there rules in MT that went something like each point of equipment
cost took a week to build the item, and a damaged item took half the time to
repair? Which spawned the whole "Combat repair/Stardock repair"
debate.... I could be wrong...

Hello Folks, Is there a ruleset in place that permits GM's to set up scenarios
based on actual production capabilities? Production times of hulls, personnel
training, etc?

I guess what it boils down to is that if one is going to run a campaign time,
one needs to know what the economic effects are for building a small ship is
versus the cost to build a larger hull. Then one needs to know
what the production rates are, and finally - how long it takes to build
an infrastructure on other worlds. Otherwise? I could very easily see it come
to pass where Nations A & B decide to have a war, and fight it out on Earth
rather than on their "colonies".

Comments?

FT2 p.35 talks about repair. In the campaign system I'm currently working on,
what's done with damage control is referred to as
"jury-rigging", as opposed to "repair" which is what happens at a naval
base. It's more effective because:

- you get to shut down the rest of the ship while you're working
- it's not being done in the middle of combat
- there's less time pressure
- there are more replacement parts available
