We just realign the way we think about warp points. Instead of being a tiny point in space they are a large area that is the size of a sector. Makes sense kind of.
What about WP stacks?
I'm with the defender going first, since they're "entrenched" already.
But if there are multiple races going at it on a WP sector, then there is a twist. You'd have to come up with a new list of players every time, and plot who moves when.
Shouldn't be too hard to make lists of 20 players for each combat, though, and once we have that, we can make up any rules we want for who goes first.
Who moves when could depend on Aggressiveness/Defensiveness traits, specialized components (with new hardcode abilities), cloak status, "From" sector type (did they pop out of a sensor obscuring storm?), used-up fleet movement (how many days have we been watching them approach?).
