The SMs have to put together their sectors from nothing, so there is certainly no lack of imagination in this group! Some sort of Galactic (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-03, to lugnet.gaming.starship)

Yup. :) Already, it would have been easy to miss Richard's post to this thread (buried deeply on the other board), but here it is easy to notice. ...I am just waking up, so I may reply more to this later...

| | | | | Well, you know, it doesn't have to be a 2000-page document. I could hammer out 15 or 20 paragraphs easy on Helix. Every one or two could cover different aspects of the places and things.
