Hidden WP:
Could easily be an option. Could actually be a three choice option:
1) Normal WPs
2) All WP outside your home system hidden
3) All WP hidden
Anyone here familiar with the Fading Suns universe from holistic Design? They're universe has these big gargoyle-encrusted warp gates at the edge of many, many systems. Sending the proper signal to them (I think with radio waves, but I'm not certain) in the presence of a huge mass (the gates and most races who have reverse engineered the tech use contained singularities for this, one race uses contained, artificial stars) opens the gate to another gate. The trick is that many people don't know all the keys to each destination. So one noble house might be able to take the gate from planet at to planets B, C, and D, while house 2 can take it to c, d, e, f, and g. Unless they share data (not done in this universe except in the most extreme circumstances) or use a device to track another's ship, noble house 1 just can't use the gate as well as their rival can.
