 Full Thrust rules including the supplements More Thrust and Fleet Books 1 and 2 are now available for download directly from Ground Zero Games in their Rules area. If you have printed versions of the Fleet Books, there is some errata - these items have all been corrected in the electronic pdf versions.

Since Fleet Book 2 was released in 2000, GZG has released miniatures for several new fleets plus they have released additional miniatures for the existing fleets.  While none of the designs below are 'official' until published by GZG, the designs presented on these pages are 'Authorized by Ground Zero Games for use until Official stats are published.'   

These ship designs are for use with Fleet Books 1 and 2 rules along with the 'playtest' rules indicated below and this combination is sometimes referred to as Full Thrust 2.5.

GZG has posted a couple versions of FT Light, a paired down version of the game that is great for introducing people to the rules or for use at a convention.  The FT Light (B&W) version fits on a page and the FT Light (color) expands the document in color with more diagrams and examples.

Other parties have compiled rules from all the separate books along with adding some of their own rules and made them available online.  The ship designs here on the FT Fleet Resource do not use all of the changes and new systems from those compellations so these designs should be close to universal and fit right in whatever rules you are using.  



 

Full Thrust: Remixed - Compiled rules for human ships including FB1

Full Thrust: Cross Dimensions - Compiled rules from FBs with some changes

Full Thrust: Warlords Edition - Compiled rules modified with additional systems - copy pulled from the archives as the original location is no longer online

Full Thrust: Project Continuum - Compiled and highly expanded rules

Emerald Coast Skunk Works - They have done a lot of work on updating and expanding Full Thrust so make sure you check them out.

Mechworld Miniature Gaming - The German-language contact point for topics related to Full Thrust.  They sell starter boxes and more plus they have a GUI shipyard to build your own ships.

GZG-L Mailing List Archives - If you are interested in learning more about the background and development of Full Thrust, you can go search and read the archives of the GZG-L mailing list that in its prime (late 1990's to 2000's) was full of debate and ideas on Full Thrust and the GZG universe as the Fleet Books were developed and released.

Players are encouraged to send their feedback on these designs to stats@star-ranger.com.

Non-GZG Fleets
Other gamers have created stats for fleets of miniatures from other manufacturers that are done in a similar style without being min/maxed and fit in this universe.  Links to those pages with those stats are included here if you want to include them in your games.  Contact the designer of the specific stats on their page if you have any questions.

How To Use These SSDs

When you want to play a game using the ships on these pages, copy the Ship Staus Display (SSD) images for the ships going into battle and paste them on to a fleet sheet, print, then play.

For your conveniance, three different fleet sheets are available, all have Fleet Movement Charts at the bottom where you can write orders:
FTFleetSheet1500 - A gif image with the most room for multiple ship SSDs
FTFleetSheet1080 - A gif image with less room for smaller fleets
FleetSheetFT - A Word document you can paste the SSDs as floating images

 

 
SD3000 Federation Heavy CruiserClassic Starship Miniatures

There are several lines of starship miniatures from the late 1970's to the early 1990's that are classics and may hold special places in some gamers hearts. This section provides Full Thrust stats and SSDs for those Classic Starship Minatures lines to get them back on the table.  The following lines of Miniatures are currently converted:

Starfleet Wars line from Superior Models
Now sold as Galactic Knights from Monday Knight Productions

Stardate 3000 line - still available from Valiant Enterprises Ltd

Space Fleet from Games Workshop
Imperial Gothic fleet Updated - Now includes Imperial and Eldar fleets

Star Frontiers: Knight Hawks from TSR - NEW
UPF, Sather, Pirates and Privateers

Future plans: Space Squadrons: Stellardate 2998 line from Grenadier Miniatures
Galaktik Taktik line from Pewtercraft.

 

Sci-Fi Crossover  

For several years I ran Sci-Fi Crossover games at GenCon gaming convention using Full Thrust rules.  The intent was to get starship miniatures from your favorite shows and movies all on the table at one time.  Something that would cause people to do a double-take as they walk by and then maybe ask a question or take a picture.

I originally compiled those conversions to a single ship format that is easier to use but have since then revised them all to new formats and added many, many more ships and Universes. 

Currently included are conversions for these universes:

Star Trek
(Original Series and Movie eras) Federation, Klingons, Romulans and Borg

Star Wars
(Original trilogy) Imperials and Rebels

Babylon 5
MAJOR UPDATES!! New format and lots of new ships
Earthforce, Minbari, Centauri, Narn, Barkiri, Drazi, and Vree fleets

Battlestar Galactica
(Original series) Colonial Defense Force   NEW! Cylon Empire

Star Blazers
The animated classic. SSD's for the Earth Defense Force (EDF) ships from the original animated series including the Space Battleship Yamato (Argo).

Coming Soon:
Buck Rogers, The Last Starfighter, and SPACE: Above and Beyond
