Off World off color and oft killer.
The local group has struggled to find answers to a few loose ends on the topic of the Galactic Knights rules. This has lead to a proposed Carnivore systems map and some decisions about creating space stations for the tactical battles.
The Carnivore space sector is an assumed layout of warp lines and star system names in the same style of mapping as the rest of the galaxy in the rule books. The overlap is primarily with the Nova Liberia political league and the Avarian controlled system border.
The map will be fleshed out by our Carnivore player in the next period of megalomania.
The space station rules, while hardly revolutionary are firm enough to create several versions for different grades of failed missions.

Wather than the Wascally Wabbit, anvils are usually the hallmark of one Wyl E. Coyote... esquire.
I have occasionally looked at 'Space opera' campaigns (one 'inspired' by the stellar patterning of our bathroom window's frosting), and wondered how to 'do' 3D space. One idea I had was to 'layer' the 3rd dimension, and label the 'star links' between the layers. I had 3 layers in mind, but if the thing were practical, 5 might offer something more interesting.
Never did anything with it, of course, but every now and then, an article like this conjures up the same thoughts...
Here's a question: why 'quadrants'? I have a feeling that 'octant' (or something similar) might be a better division - except, of course, that 'quadrant' is much better known. I've not really thought about it until now. I was thinking of how one might divide up a globular section of space. Just one of those niggly little questions to plague one's enjoyment of Star Trek...
Cheers,

As for the Wabbits, Barry has been busy.
As far as quadrants ....interstellar travel is in the rules that way, travel is warp point to warp point. Certainly no reason to not change it to suit.
If you read Asimov's first Empire book, a good spherical analogy to strategic movement is made.
