Web Casters
Web Caster: In recent game we used a Neo-Tholian with a Web Caster. It was very effective in dropping a row of web in front of the opposition's ships. It acted like "range 25 tractor beam" pinning a ship and allowing others to wreak havoc. (The scenario was a "Battleship Furball" with 8 battleships ...

Merchant (Freighter) Speed
Merchants (Freighters) are limited to Speed 16 on the ship card. Can they accelerate and do 16+1?
We recently played a game with a merchant convoy. We limited them to Speed 16, but couldn't confirm by the rules or the ship card if they could have done 16+1 by paying for acceleration.

Deceleration in a turn
If your ship is going to turn: It moves left or right 60 degrees and then moves one hex. By using deceleration, can it move left or right 60 degrees and then not move one hex?

Big Adromedan Scenario?
I'm trying to find a scenario from SFB to convert to FC. IIRC, a Klingon B10 and Federation SDS engaged a nasty Andromendan. Can anyone direct me to the Captain's Log that had this story and the SFB scenario?
