I have physical copies of all three, bought in the '90s when GZG still had a North American distributor.
Played Full Thrust and Stargrunt, still have to play Dirtside.
Full Thrust is probably still my favourite sci-fi ship combat system, just the right amount of abstraction while having a vector movement system.

I also finished an Enforcer Strider for Firefight and visited the Hamburger Tactica.

Got some loot. 😆

Blog - Video posted with ‘unboxing’ of Power Projection: Fleet for the #TravellerRPG.

Quick reminiscence on the development of the game which that I wrote and demoed a lot for @BITS_Traveller in the early 2000s.

Time for a game of Full Thrust! With Asteroids! Odd gravitational anomalies mean that the asteroids are moving in random directions, so there's no telling where they will end up.

Ships still have to obey the usual vectored movement rules though, so finding a safe path became a fun aspect of this game.

Asteroids!

Playing Asteroids with Full Thrust. Strange gravity fluctuations made avoiding the asteroids harder than expected.

Gaming Chronicles

Is there a #Fullthrust-like game for #Linux or #DOS? Think turn-based mass unit combat, hex square-based movement, fleets and lots of tactical strategy.

#opensource #retrogaming

For our wargaming this week we returned to Full Thrust. We made use of a moon and some asteroid clusters as terrain, to give ships something to user as cover.

Battle above the Moon

Another game of Full Thrust, with the ESU and NSL fighting for dominance above the Moon.

Gaming Chronicles

It was time for another game of Full Thrust. The ESU with large ships against the FSE with a set of smaller, faster ships. It was an attempt to see if the manoeuvrability of the FSE could overcome the long range firepower of the ESU.

The Changchun

The Federal States of Europe go up against the light carrier Changchun of the Eurasian Solar Union in a game of Full Thrust.

Gaming Chronicles

We had another 3 player game of Full Thrust, with the first outing of my Scandinavian Federation fleet. The fight was over a planet, and we had some lightweight gravity rules as well.

Orbital Superiority

Three fleets met around a small world to fight over who owned it. We had only one ship impact the planet, but there was a lot of debris in orbit by the time we’d finished.
