Subject: Vector Thrust Trick
Here's a little trick that I've found usefull for using the Vector Movement System. Instead of using an arrow marker to show the direction of the ship's movement vector, cut a 2 to 3 inch circle from a piece of card and draw a line across the diameter, through the center, with an arrowhead on one end. Place the circle under the base of your ship, with the arrow pointing in the direction of movement. The circle is less likely to be accidentally bumped during movement, and while moving the ship counter or miniature, the line is a much more accurate guide for direction than a counter at one edge of the base.
