Hmmm . . . well . . . I thought the idea of having a FAQ was to avoid
having someone bring up "done to death" questions, because they
thought these were something new.  Seeing as how RTT seems to be
pulling in a bit of new blood, I'm thinking that some of these
(particularly jump torpedoes - which on the face of it seems to be a
logical extension of jump drive - and defending gas giants - which
newbies might assume was easy) will still be pertinent.
