Yes I relize that they would have to be hard coded in but I just wanted to open up a dialog on the subject to see if anyone liked it.

If enough people like then maybe in to be put in to SEV
What I'd really really like to see for SEV would be the possibility for normal space FTL travel from system to system as well as warp-point travel. This would open up whole new tech trees and strategies. For example, travelling directly from system to system without warp points would have the advantage of being able to approach from any direction but the obvious disadvantage that it would take a lot longer to get from A to B. Cost and supplies might also be issues.

Maybe also make it so that once a fleet has been despatched via FTL into the inter-stellar void, it can't change course. Chuck in some sensors so that the defender could see a few dozen light years beyond the system's boundaries (and all the cloaking devices & stuff that come with sensors) and it could be a well- balanced feature for the sequel.
