Default Re: Updating Player Guide and Walk Thru

As I recally, all except the ancient quadrant have the same distribution of systems & planets, and merely different warppoint connection patterns.

You could probably generate a few and comment on the relative number of chokepoints, cluster sizes and whatnot, but I think its mostly an aesthetic thing.

Grid - systems are laid out in a square grid pattern. No chokepoints, free roaming. Right angles everywhere.
Spiral - looks pretty. Chains of systems near the outside, cluster near the inside.
Galactic Edge - like midlife. If you have only a small number of systems, the warp connections will be spread more evenly.
