After being a Ground Pounder for more then 20 years I have taken the plunge and bought a small fleet of ships. For those who may not know them, they are a set of NAC ships from GZG. I am going to play the Full Thrust set of rules.

Anyway, had to share the fun.

Check out the Cold Navy fleets from

If your ever looking for another fleet. Great looking ships and roughly similar in size to the GZG stuff.

Funny thing was I own the FT book. I bought it as part of a sale as a combo of all three (Stargrunt, Dirtside, and FT) and just dabbled in the Ship with a friend once or twice. I liked it but for some reason never went the final step to buy minis.

Well, now I have.  :laugh:

Hay, come to think of it, this is a new scale for me too.  :o0   :laugh:

Looked at those, but an eBay auction made the final choice for me. Too good a deal to pass up.  :cool:

I did like the Human stuff quite a lot. As you say, could be a future fleet for me if this goes well enough.

We shall see.  :laugh:

???  So then you just shot past each other?

I have been warned that the vectoring can be tricky. But I have also been told that chase games can be fun as well.

Welcome to the Fleet Dafrca

Fullthrust is a good game.  You hope be disappointed.  

Good luck.

Yep. Both spent the next few turns desperately slowing and trying to turn before the other for a more measured attack!
