The wonders of finally being able to use a decent graphics program means that we can, at long last, have a decent map to use. So, let's get down to brass tacks, ladies and gentlemen. We have two maps. One map is the actual map of the Space RP, showing all of the star systems under our control. The other is a numbered map, which we'll use to select which systems we want to use. The Actual Map: ![]() The Number Map: ![]() The actual map is divided into a series of hexes, each of which is roughly ten lightyears across. There are 184 star systems on the map, each of which is represented by a sun (the color of which has been provided for each system). Some (about 20) are binary systems (shown with two suns in a hex), while two systems are trinary (a.k.a. prime real estate). You can move freely between systems (unlike the old system where you could only move along established lines). Right now, the number and type of planets in each system isn't specified. That's up to you how you want to roll with it. Just assume that there's at least one habitable planet in each system. So, let's get to the fun stuff. Everyone get's to start off with 12 star systems. You will pick these systems using the number chart using a "posting template" (see below). You will be able to expand from these initial 12 systems, so don't worry if that seems a little small to you. Please try to pick systems that neighbor each other! Don't be cute and pick random ones all across the map. Speaking of which, here's that template:
Use this template to put forth your choices. Please fill it out completely so that I can put everything on the map that is needed. And that should take care of it all. Have fun! UPDATE: August 28, 2009 The "world type" system has been removed. It only serves to inhibit gameplay by placing an unnecessary restriction on what we can and can't do with our empire. So, it's out. You're free to make your worlds as you so choose. The number of systems you may have has been expanded from nine to twelve. Space is vast - your empires ought to be a bit more vast themselves. This means that everybody gets to pick three additional star systems (if you have established a colony prior to this update, you still get your three additional systems + plus those colonies). I will also be expanding the map later on. More systems, things added in like nebulae, black holes, strange cosmic stuff. I just have to figure out how to do it, and it'll be done.

Alright, Starman, you're up. Flawless needs to have a color, so I'll wait for him before putting up the map. |
