Here is a map I did for my campaign to give me a 'scope' of the Sindalian Empire. I have tried to stay true to the POD adventures when specifics where given. The rest I made up. Maybe you might find it useful.

For simplicity I maintain the 100d limit. For explanation I say it is because the volume of the object casts a 100x 'volumetric' shadow in Jumpspace. Entering jumpspace in this 'shadow' can be dangerous. Nothing to do with gravity.

Any chance of getting a copy of the 1st edition errata?

Don't think I'm missing the point. So I can detect ships going into and out of a system 3 years late. It does not tell me the type, where they came from, where they are going. It gives me a traffic count. Spies could probably get me more information. Spy satellites could get me more...

Again, if the 100 dton ship exits jumpspace 3 light years away, it is going to be 3 years later it detects it. I'll take the sensors at 50k. As a long term 'ear' the "gravity wave" detector works great. As a short term I just jumped to 100 diameter limit, the sensors packages are great...

It can still only detect Jump transits at the speed of light, so at the speed of all other "Long Range" detectors. It does not change how a ship would jump into the system for large navel movements. It neither increases nor decreases defense ability to react.

So if you had one of these running, and a ship emerged from jump 1 parsec away, it take 3.26 years for it to register with the suite. The "Gravity wave" travels at the speed of light. It can detect stellar phenomenon at 30 parsecs because it is detecting it where it was at 30 years before...

Deep Space Exploration Handbook, Gravitational Analysis Suite (TL13)......."It can be used to predict the presence of objects in deep space or track gravity waves caused by jump entry and breakout. Of course, since gravity waves propagate at the speed of light, a jump emergence detected in a...

Double Post.

"Einstein's relativistic equation for gravity based on general relativity demands that gravity travels at the speed of light, otherwise the predictions we get for the bending of light and the precession of the perihelion of Mercury would be quite different than what is experimentally...

If it detected at 274 billion km in 24 hours it is travelling faster then the speed of light. Light travels ~24 billion km in 24 hours.

Shouldn't the basic ship systems power requirement be 40 instead of 20 as stated in High Guard? The main rule book has them at 40 for 'jump dimming', and High Guard states Basic requirement is 20% of Hull tonnage, which would be 40.

Wow!! That is awesome! Thank you!!

Thanks!! That was really bugging me. I just started running pirates.

I read somewhere about one shot jump drives. It referenced Highguard, and was 10% of regular drive cost. Anyone know what supplement/article/post I am talking about? I cannot remember where or I saw it.
