 ====== Full Thrust Scenarios ======
-===== Capture the Planet =====
+Full Thrust is an incredibly flexible system, and players can build pretty much any type of fleet that they want. However, this means that games can sometimes be a bit unbalanced if players bring completely different fleets. A simple 'meet and destroy' game can also mean it's easy to optimise a fleet for that sort of battle.
--4 fleets.
+In our experience, a small number of large vessels with low manoeuvrability and lots of big long ranged weapons can easily destroy a more manoeuvrable fleet of many smaller craft.
-,500pts
+The point of these scenarios then, are to:
-No more than 50% on > mass 100.
+  * Put restrictions on the make up of fleets, so players can bring fleets which are vaguely similar in style.
+  * Provide an advantage for manoeuvrability over stationary gun platforms.
+  * Include objectives beyond the simple destruction of the enemy, which may require different tactics and a need for specialist ships.
-One planet
+===== Common Rules =====
-Each turn spent within 6" of surface of planet, +1 points
+These scenarios assume use of these [[rules]], though this isn't required.
-Each turn the only fleet within 6" of surface of planet, +1 points
-Each 300pts of ships lost, 1pt
+==== Ship Classes ====
+An //Escort// class ship is considered to be any ship less than MASS 50.
-===== Ambush =====
+A //Cruiser// class ship is considered to be from MASS 50 to MASS 99.
-Red has to stop Blue from crossing the table.
+A //Capital Ship// is considered to be MASS 100+.
-Blue gains points for each pt that crosses the table with a functioning drive and bridge systems before end of turn 6.
+==== Destruction Points ====
-Red gains points for each pt that they stop.
+Escorts: Whoever gets the killing blow gets the point for destroying it, regardless of how much they or anyone else has actually done.
+Cruisers: 1pt for the second threshold, 1pt when they are destroyed.
+Capital Ships: One point each time they are forced over a threshold, including a point when they are destroyed. Ships with advanced hulls give 2 points on destruction. Gives a total of 4 points.

-===== Convoy =====

-Blue to protect the convoy. Has 1,000pts. Nothing larger than 50 MASS.
