Ok, heres some rules for Pike Thrust, just for the halibut. dont even ask
about my porpoise in posting these rules.

If John gives permission, I suppose some of the Brits could make a few Squid
selling copies of this.

lets start with the basics, as to avoid everybody floundering around

Changes to regular Full Thrust Rules:

1). No advanced sensors, and sensor ranges are halved, as all ships count as
hard of herring vs Fish.

2). all Fish are counted as organic ships, and are covered in Mussels thereby
providing 1 pt of Armor.

Oh dear. I think you're codding us with this. Sounds fishy. Someone should
really put you in your plaice. I may sound like I'm preaching a salmon on this
subject, but its important for the sole...

You now all have permission to send me to sleep with the fishes.   Ahem.

Kelp! The scale of this is too enormous for me to sea! I can't fathom it all.

Ah whats the manta? Sorry about that. I can only agree..And I started it.
Still maybe it broke the tension a little...Or maybe not.

Or Geohex could make a few clams.

Don't forget the Ray guns. They'd be great, like shooting fish in a barrel.
With these, you would always trout your enemies, sending them running back to
their home bass.

If C batteries shot projectiles, I'd guess their ammunition would be C slugs.
