I have been playing Full Thrust for years, it is the only Starship combat game I
play. I use the old Micro Machine Star Trek ships. I have over 500 of them. I
also have a fleet each of the NAC and ESU. I hav'nt thought of using micro
scale LEGO ships, but they would work. I am sure once the class of each type of
ship is worked out. Such as a ship of x number of studs long by x wide is a
cruiser class, etc.
After being familuar with the rules, a fellow gamer worked out a 1 page sheet
that has all the info one needs to play a game. A worksheet with each class is
filled in and off you go.
