Very excited about this. I used to have the original Prime Directive, but never ran it. As to deckplans, if the game is all about Prime Teams like the original, then you just need to have the critical areas that a firefight would happen; bridge, engineering, various labs. You don't need every...

Obi-Wan wants to get there as quick as possible. That is what is implied in the movie, once again to my understanding. If the course is plotted along the shorter route and they get there in a speedy fashion, in essence getting there 'faster'. Considering that TIME can slow down, such as when...
