I love you guys.

Rather than a major recoding project, I'm just waiting for a map editor.
You'd create every system to have a warp point to the 3-4 closest stars. Junction system warp points will have the 3-4 closest stars warp points as well as warp points to far star systems. That way it'll be much faster to zip through junction warp points to far systems rather than mucking about in a dozen smaller junctions.
My problem is with technology. The tech trees and components will need major reworking. I'd rather cut research out of the game completely and "give" either side their upgrades on certain dates. (The Peeps got most of their tech from the Solarian League, anyway.)
