What about a system with multiple suns, in an asteroid field? There could be a dockable planet or station near the center, and one must navigate through a narow amount of safely flyable space to reach it. One would have to not fly into the many nearly conjoining coronas, avoid astroids, and pockets of high radioactivity. To make it even more interesting, the whole system is radioactive, making time limited thatt one can stay there. The struggle would be worth it if there was something valuable at the end. It could be part of a very profitable trade route, thats very dangerous and tedious... Or a place people could compete with other players skills. Hmm, maybe thats overkill, but it would be neat to have a place that one had to really push their skills to reach, and return from due to natural phenomena, and not because of tons of npc's. Just a long winded thought, a little crazy. :wacko:
