Map for Star Trek Mod

Hey Userx,

Posted by Userx
So, are you all suggesting that I continue working on the map? I wasn't sure people would want to play in a fixed environment but if so, I will improve it significantly.

I for one am enjoying playing your map. I also dowmload your printable copy of the map, printed in color. Nice, very nice indeed. Show it to my eighteen year old son and his comments were "that not correct, the borgs should be there and Romulus empire should be in the southern part of the map, ......" I for one have NO problems with your map. There is no right or wrong way to map out the Star Trek galaxy. There a few maps out there, and they all are not alike.
Now, I can plan my Federation goals, attacks, etc. when I'm not that home playing on my computer.
And, yes, please continue refining your star trek map. I for one enjoy playing it. Plan to start a PBW campaign with my SE4/gold buddy later this year, after he has a chance to play the Star Trek mod some more.

I have them in order so that they each start in their homesystems as designed.

Hey Lighthorse

He's half right. The borg are actually in the Delta far away from the Federation. But if I were to represent that in any realistic manner, I'd need a map 100 time the size.

As for the Romulans, according to Star Trek Star Charts, and many other sources, they are in their correct starting location. But, there has been contradictions published... like everything in star trek.

Well, let me see about doing an update to the map.

Really glad you're having fun with it.

Speaking about the map, does anyone know if you can set the starting locations of minor races????

What order though?

Fyron, I'm pretty sure he already answered that question with the thread starter:
