 Evening
 Kenneth Barns,

  
 To the best of my knowledge HGS is using LBB2 2nd
 edition for the crew and rules from TCS. Unfortunately or
 fortunately depending on your point of view HGS does not
 allow the use of LBB2 jump drive, maneuver drive, or power
 plants per LBB5 2nd edition rules.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Actually, according to my copy of LBB5 High Guard 2ed (c)1980 it *is* permissible to use CT LBB2.

pg22 'Drives' section;
"It is possible to use standard drives from Book 2 is they will otherwise meet the ship's requirements; such drives use fuel as indicated in the formulas in Book2.

pg27 line8;
"Drives obtained from Book 2 require use of the fuel formulas in Book 2".

Also note that the first sentence in the 'Drives' section specifies that their are three types of 'drives', "maneuver drives, power plants, & jump drives".
