I'm not talking about graphics. I couldn't care less about that. I grew up with cardboard counters. Blips like a radar screen would be fine by me...
I'm talking about a real search phase, where it takes many turns to cross the system and sensor range is less than one turn's movement range, so you have to find the enemy before you can fight them, and if he spreads out to search more ground the larger force risks being defeated in detail. This creates the opportunity for an operational situation like Juteland or Midway. That's what I want!...

I'm a fan of "the more systems the better." I like running my own territory, exploring new territory, and fighting long wars over the other races' territories.
Lots of systems. Strategic depth.
You must be in my age-range, Bill. I grew up on cardboard counters too.
