Plenty of scope for military and espionage campaigns then.

Whilst I accept that the decision to keep the starmap in it's original format is a done deal, I did have a soft spot for a more radical solution to the astrography problem - which was to drop the 'maximum stutterwarp' threshold to a lower value (5 ly or something) and then paint in the 'old' arms by dropping in conveniently positioned brown dwarfs to recreate the canonical star-to-star links.The key to making use of "Backdoor" is probably going to resolve to a statement that brown dwarf stars are pretty common, but not everywhere, and in the context of 2300AD, rarely in useful spots. Backdoor is the only one so far.

Many thanks to the people who have helped me over the last few months, your assistance has been invaluable.
Now I just need to wait for Matt to open his inbox, and scream at the sheer size of the thing.
