Yeah, I understood as much - I just thought there would have been some minimal 4-5 page info on it left at least, to be greatly expanded upon in Xtreme
Now, I'm certainly getting Xtreme as soon as it's available for PDF download and don't really mind except for having to wait, but I would imagine that a new ICE customer who wanted to try out the system would be less satisfied with not even having a simplistic set of base rules to use for space travel - in a sci-fi game.
For purposes of improvising something, however - what's the max speeds for ships like the Manta Ray Explorer, Hypershuttle, Microshuttle and the Corsair? From the downloadable tables I assume the absolute max speed for the magneto-gravitic engines to date is 0.07c, but I imagine it would differ between engine sizes.
