When we do our rematch I'm seriously considering Cruisers and miniatures. For teaching an adult (or anyone experienced with gaming) I would probably start with fleet scale cruisers right off the bat.
I see. It probably is best to start as simple as possible.

This is an excellent thread with some great ideas, thanks very much.

Its almost worth collating these and other tips into a "FC: Ensign Training Manual" type of article.

The only other thought I've had is that for a beginner, it would seem that 1 turn arming weapons (like Klingons) are a good start, followed by 2 turn weapons (such as Feds).
