Advice on running "Bayern"

[HorusZA]

I've just started planning a mini-campaign (6-8 sessions) following the Bayern as it journeys to the Pleiades. The original GDW adventure is very sketchy and leaves a lot of details to the GM. I have no issue with that in principle, but I do feel a little lost.

Here are some questions I have:
1.) Which route, from Earth, does the Bayern take. At which point does it depart from the Near Star List and head into virgin territory? In which general direction are the Pleiades?
2.) What are some of the home-brew encounters you have used in your campaign?
3.) Does anyone feel energetic enough to do a Mongoose 2300AD version of the Bayern.

Hopefully some of you may have used the adventure in the past and can provide some advice and ideas.

Thanks!

It's the in the pipe as a campaign sourcebook, building on the original. It leaves human space via the Pentapod Finger, which is more or less the right direction.

More than that, we haven't decided yet. It will likely be a book with a variety of options to chose (or generate at random) for each system encountered, along with a few "milestone" worlds. It will a modified version of the MgT Core world generation system to create new systems as it encounters them.
