Full Thrust Errata
The printed versions of the Full Thrust had some typos and
errata. These items have been corrected in the electronic PDF
versions.
 Fleet
Book: Volume 1 Errata
This is the
errata for the Full Thrust Fleet Book:
Volume 1 as of October, 1998. The
errata is official, and was written by Jon
Tuffley (author of Full Thrust).
With
any book, you start to notice the typos as
soon as it comes back from the printers...
there are several in the Fleet Book
Vol. 1, most of them in the boxes of
text for each ship's specifications. The
ones listed here are those that have been
spotted so far, and there may be a few
more lurking in obscure places. The most
important thing is that of the ones we've
found or had pointed out to us, in all
cases the SYSTEMS STATUS DISPLAY panels
(the bits that you actually use to play
the game) are CORRECT. The majority of the
typos are in the text boxes where the ship
specs are written out, which is annoying
but not a serious problem, but we have
listed them all here for players'
convenience.
Page
3: Under "Thruster Pushes",
2nd paragraph: the text reads "6
manoeuvre points" whereas it should
read 3.
Page
11: We managed to leave the Points
Cost for HULL ARMOUR out of the Mass and
Cost table; Armour boxes should be costed
at 2 x MASS used (ie: 2 points per Armour
box), exactly as for Hull Integrity and
Drive Systems costs.
The
sample design is wrong. A level one screen
for a Mass 85 ship is 4.25 (round down to
4) mass but the design lists it as 5 mass.
The point cost is 3 X MASS or 12 not, but
the listing shows 15. The cost for the SM
magazine is also incorrect, 3 standard
load, 2 MASS each, 6 total MASS, point
cost is 3 X MASS or 18, but listing shows
12.
Page
12: In the "Ship classifications
and Mass ratings" table, the entry
for "Patrol or Escort Cruiser"
should have the abbreviation
"CE", not "E" as
printed.
Page
15: TICONDEROGA CLASS DESTROYER: The
Points Value (NPV) of this ship should
read 100, not 41. The Procurement Cost
should read 1000 MUcr, not 410.
Page
16: FURIOUS CLASS ESCORT CRUISER:
Thrust Rating for this ship is 4, as shown
on the Systems Display; the Technical
Specifications box lists it as 6, which is
incorrect.
Page
16: VANDENBURG CLASS HEAVY CRUISER:
There is a Pulse Torpedo system listed in
the Tech Specs which should not be there;
the Systems Display panel is correct.
Page 17: MAJESTIC CLASS BATTLECRUISER:
There is an ADFC system listed in the Tech
Specs which should not be there; the
Systems Display panel is correct.
Page
19: ARK ROYAL CLASS FLEET SUPERCARRIER:
There is a superfluous "crew
factor" star next to one of the PDS
Systems on the Systems Display, which
should be ignored. (We believe this is
actually Able Spacehand Eugene P. Funk,
who is in hiding to avoid being put on
Damage Control detail again...)
Page 25: SZENT ISTVAN CLASS
BATTLEDREADNOUGHT: There are only 3 PDS
systems listed in the Tech Specs; there
should be 4. The Systems Display panel is
correct.
Page
26: DER THEUERDANK CLASS FIGHTER
CARRIER: The SSD is incorrect and should
show only 14 armour boxes not 15. The
technical specification is correct. The
crew factor should be 11 not 10 as stated
in the technical specification and SSD.
Page
33: JEANNE D'ARC CLASS FLEET CARRIER:
There are only 3 Fighter Bays listed in
the Tech Specs; there should be 7. The
Systems Display panel is correct.
Page
36: VOLGA CLASS SUPER DESTROYER: There
is only 1 PDS System listed in the Tech
Specs; there should be 2. The Systems
Display panel is correct.
Page
36: TIBET CLASS LIGHT CRUISER: There
is only 1 Fire Control System listed in
the Tech Specs; there should be 2. The
Systems Display panel is correct.
Page
39: ROSTOV CLASS BATTLEDREADNOUGHT:
The descriptive text box for this ship is
incorrect; it is a copy of the text for
the Manchuria Class. The text box for the
Rostov should read:
The
Rostov is the BDN class of the
"family" of ship designs from
the Tsien-Valkov design bureau, which
began with the Manchuria BCs at the
start of the 2170s. All of the designs
are well armed and protected, with good
drive power, and are giving the ESU Navy
a much-needed boost in its strike
capabilities. As with most BDNs, the
Rostov carries a single embarked fighter
group for both anti-shipping and ground
support operations. Five built-to-order
Rostovs were exported to the Pan African
Union between 2178 and 79, to form the
major battleline strength of the PAU's
rapidly-expanding and modernising navy;
this sale was purely a political move,
which somewhat upset the ESU Admiralty
who (understandably) felt that their own
requirements for replacement fleet units
should have taken priority.
Page
42: ASSAULT TRANSPORT: Includes the
costs of the landers, this should have
been noted in the design box. It has a NPV
of 359 as shown. Adding a Level-1 screen
will bring it to NPV 377.
Fleet
Book: Volume 1 Official Changes
Jon
Tuffley made the following ruling official
on the Ground Zero Games mailing list:
Pulse
torpedoes no longer require their own
dedicated fire control. The rules indicate
that a fire control is required for pulse
torpedoes to fire at a ship, and that this
fire control can not be used for any other
purpose (such as aiming beams, etc.). This
is no longer the case. A fire control used
to target beams can now be used to target
pulse torpedoes at the same time.
 Fleet
Book: Volume 2 Errata
This is the errata for the Full
Thrust Fleet Book, Volume 2 as of
October, 2000. The errata is official. If
more errata surfaces, it will be included
on this page.
Page
10: HANGAR BAYS: Hangar Bays are
listed as costing 18 points. This should
be 27 points, the same as for human ships.
Page
13: DI'TOK: Technical Specifications
shouldn't be in italics.
Page
18: DO'SAN : Technical Specifications
that the ship only has 1x Class-1 K-gun.
This is incorrect; it has 3x Class-1
K-guns as indicated on the Ship Systems
Display.
Page
18: DO'SAN : The cost is listed as 671
points. It should cost 691 points.
Page
18: KO'SAN: 3 Fire Control Systems are
missing from the Ship Systems Display, the
Technical Specifications are correct.
Page
30: TY'SA'TETH: The background text
"small task froces" should read
"small task forces".
Page
34: XENO FILE 3: THE PHALONS: a page
missing in very early copies. This was
corrected early on. The missing page
copies were sold at the Salute game
convention, with a free replacement given
to purchasers. The page that is missing is
background material abput the Phalons.
Page
35: HULL INTEGRITY AND
"SHELL" ARMOUR: the 4th
paragraph incorrectly states shell boxes
cost 2 points each, the 5th paragraph
correctly states that their cost per box
is 2 x layer number.
Page
36: PLASMA BOLT LAUNCHERS:
Clarification, any missile or fighter
caught within the burst radius of an
exploding Plasma Bolt Launcher is
automatically destroyed (as for all other
area effect weapons). Fighters can try to
move out of range of the burst radius, but
they must stay inside the burst radius if
they wish to try and destroy the Plasma
Bolt.
Page
36: HANGAR BAYS: Hangar Bays are
listed as costing 18 points. This should
be 27 points, the same as for human and
Kra'Vak ships.
Page
41: HUULTH: The Ship Systems Display
shows 3 crew factors, but the Technical
Specifications list 4 crew factors. The
Technical Specifications are correct,
there should be 4.
Page
45: PHALON WEAPONS AND DEFENCES
SUMMARY: PULSER BATTERIS: states that
"level-2 screens and Vapour Shrouds
negate rolls of 4 or 5". This is
incorrect. Vapour Shrouds and Screens
affect Pulsers in exactly the same way as
they affect human beams.
Page
45: PHALON WEAPONS AND DEFENCES
SUMMARY: PLASMA BOLT LAUNCHERS: effects of
shields and Vapour Shrouds are missing
(see page 36 paragraphy 13).
