Hello all,

I'd like to take this opportunity to announce the formation of The Emerald Coast Skunkworks, a non-commercial Full Thrust development group, with the goal of promoting and further developing Full Thrust.
With the gracious permission and support of Jon Tuffley of Ground Zero Games we will be developing supplements for Full Thrust, particularly Fleet Books for GZG's new ship models. Dean ‘Star Ranger' Gundberg did a fantastic job creating SSDs for them and with his help and support we will be picking up where he left off. All of our publications will be available for free download on our site and here on the Full Thrust Facebook Group.

Our flagship project will be re-write of Cross Dimensions. With Hugh Fisher's permission (author of XD) and assistance, we will be incorporating the Continuum supplement as well as some ideas you all have suggested. Very shortly we will be asking for volunteers to design the cover art for us so if you are a talented artist consider doing a cover for us.

We have set up a website link and over the coming months we will be setting up tabs for the core rules, SSD resources to go with the "Tuffley verse" and several others. There will also be a section for player/fan generated SSDs and rules as well as a new ship construction calculator and After Action Reports.

Be on the lookout for many exciting things coming down the pipeline!

Any and all comments welcome!

I loved Full Thrust, but it has strayed far form the simple game of second edition.

If you're ever in Lincoln, NE, I promise to play a game of four fire arcs… ;->=

Even with the changes in 2.5, it's one of the most straight-forward starship games I've ever played.

Whats nice abt it is that it can be as simple or as complex as you like. You can take ships from fleet book 1 (essentially 2nd ed) and play them agaisnt ships using all the new stuff and they are still very competitive.

What we tried to do with the supplemnets and additions weve made is to enable players to build ships from their fav tv series, movie etc, or from another sci fi game and have those ship operate in the FT universe while keeping their oroginal 'flavor'.
