I saw this and just had to share this.

It is probably a bit small for the scale of FT<G>.

Nice model. As an FYI, I'm working on a set of rules for the Honor Harrington
Universe (isn't everyone?. My intent is an adaptation of an existing rule rule
system, but rather something designed from the ground up to capture the spirit
of the the Harrington universe. However, I am sure I will be influenced by
other gaming systems, that I have played. The trick is going to be to make the
massive numbers of missile easy to play without taking away from their
importance. But I think I have a way to make the missile accounting easy,
while still making every missile count.

Anyway, once the game is mostly laid out with a few sample ships, I'll contact
Mr.Weber about the copyright issues. If he is willing to consider the use of
his intellectual property, you may see a published version of the game. If
not, you can only see it in my living room:)

If the game ever reaches publication, I'll see if I can twist an arm or two
over at DLD Productions, to make some mini's.

Good luck on this one! Mr.Weber has expressed quite... definite (and
unfortunately very negative) views on this subject though, so I'm afraid

you'll need all the good luck you can get :-(

Which is one reason I'm not planning on contacting him until most of the
design is done. I figure an almost finished product might have a better chance
then just a product brief. Besides, I'm mostly doing for myself anyway:)
