' Wrote:I don't think Gallia needs to be moved. Rescaled but not moved. For one thing, the Sirius sector is three dimensional, not two dimensional. Spacetime (jumpholes) is four dimensions or higher. So long connections from, say, Honshu to Sigma-13 or those to Omicron Alpha are not out of the question. Sigma-13 brings Kusari and Rheinland much closer than they would be if they were connected by a string of systems 1 or 1.41 sector units away. So what Gallia needs is a few highway systems like Sigma-13. Jump holes should be added to some systems that go further than the adjacent system. Create cash incentives, like trading and mining. Add shortcuts and ways to evade the thoroughfares, and people will filter in quickly to exploit the incentives.
Not to be rude but thats Bullcrap if you look at the geometry of the sirius map regardless of the Real Life 3D geometry of Space itself, its 2D and thus should be treated as such. Links between Rhienland and Kusari are made possible by highway systems like Sigma 13 make sense topologically as Kusari and Rhienland are right next to eachother like Kusari and Liberty are etc...
But Gallia is pinned in a remote corner of Sirius blocked to the East by the Taus and Omicrons on its way to Kusari and the only real access to another house it has is Bretonia with Lewis and Orkney acting as the Highway Systems between the two Houses.
INRP and in LOGIC there can be no SUPER LINKS between gallia in its current postion in sirius to all or most of the other houses as they are too far away. GAllia needs to become more Centralised within Sirius Sector to have such Highway Links you are talking about to other Houses.
I think you should reassess your own facts before coming up with outlandish ideas for connecting gallia with the rest of sirius when it sits in a region of sirius whose direct Mirror Image systems on the opposite side of Sirius in the North East Corner of Sirius, are Omicron 99, IOTA and Lost. Which if Im not mistaken are as remote as hell and are thus Nomad Systems. Gallics are not Nomads so should not be tucked away behind the Taus and Outcast Empire;)
