Overall, a nice review. Not sure which radar he was referring to, the one that detects occupied systems or the one that you get when you enter a system. If the former, then you just don't have to equip a ship with it. As far as the system radar, as he says, you can usually retreat if you don't think you can deal with the odds, and once you've played the game a bit, the radar allows you to determine if you want to 'expend' the mouse clicks to enter the system I'm curious as to which one he was referring to, and what alternative he would suggest.

I was referring to the one you get when you enter a system.

I don't think there's really a clear-cut alternative other than removing it (which I don't suggest), it's just a convention of the game. Espeically with short games, you're wasting a lot of time entering star systems and retreating all the time. I just think the radar before you enter combat mode spoils some of the surprise of how many ships you'll be going up against.

It didn't come up in testing, but come to think about it, there could have been an alternative...made it a ship's system...
