I’m wondering if you could contact Justin Alexander and extended him an invitation to this forum so that he might opine on the subject.

I don't think that I should be the one do that. However, y ...

Virtually the entire RPG hobby is built on three core structures:

2. Combat

3. Railroad

Thanks for the link, I'll definitely check it out.

Edit: I'll make a Word Doc with the things that I disagree with. I'll try not to be too harsh, however there's quite a bit that I'm already not l ...

I know this is a little late, however pakman said something interesting.
I think there are a lot more relevant things to gameplay than a sector generator?

There's a lot to unpack here, and I think it deserves it's own thread. I'm also not sure that there's enough characters available to go over everything in one post, and I'm not confident I can get it ...

I'd like to see more explicit structures. Namely, directly integrating GG6 trade mechanics, a way to move the action from ship to planet (i.e. patrons), a sector generation method, and random encount ...
