Delete the lanes from the Okinawa Gate to Planet Honshu, replace with buoys to Aomori. Players can roleplay trying to add the lanes in, rather than it just happening.
Connect Okinawa to Sigma-19 with a lane and a gate, depending on the events of course.
I like these things.
Nagano being connected to Honshu, well, that would make an already system rather crowded. As much as I like the thought of easier access to Nagano, Honshu was, well, very well occupied in vanilla, and with the Okinawa JH/JG in there as well now, it'd be a little more crowded as well.
What I just thought of just now regarding Nagano is the thought of making the Chugoku Jump Gate Site is that because Samura has experienced such difficulty in getting to Chugoku from Hokkaido, they have switched the route of that gate from Chugoku to Nagano. Not everyone knows about Chugoku, mind you, so covering up the fatal flaws in trying to get to Chugoku wouldn't be all that hard on Samura's part. Don't know the exact physics involved in Jump Gates, but, it'd make Hokkaido much less crowded than it would be with another gate, and leave Honshu the perfect gem of a system it was in .84 (At least with some buoys in it).
