Griev - in creative and emotional limbo (no login)

Ah, nearly forgot. Neo-Edo, Nippon system. Lower right of (4,6), about the place where you've got the low part of the W.
Hmm, we probably should do something to fill in the Taiidani, with that big empty space in the middle. And the Juraii. I'll let the latter to someone more involved in stuff that side of the Spiral.
What do we put into the Taiidani though. We've got the Harkonnen, seat on Giedi Prime, which are the largest House - or at least one of the largest. Give 'em a big honkin' patch of the center. Then we have Ordos (anyone remember where _they_ are from?) - I'd say give them the shallow border stip in the sectors (7,7), (7,8), (8,7) and (8,8) as territory. Maybe a little farther, stopping just a centimeter or two under Caladan. Not too deep - they have Kessel, but not Corellia. IMO.
Atreides - Caladan and a fair bit of that sector, nearly the whole border with the Aan. Moderately deep, bordering with Harkonnen territory in one or two places.
House Tomoe - just above the Ordos. Maybe include Corellia? Other than that, I don't know. I'm woking on specifics though, or hope to come up with something at least. Right now it's a dry spell.
We'll need more houses, of course. More minor ones, allied with the big ones. Then we'll need territory owned by the 'government' as in Lionstone - military installations, Arrakis, Golgotha, strategically important swaths of space. Though they ought to be 'padded' on the outside, by House territory. Just so that anything wanting to get to Imperial 'lands' needs to bleed itself on the lackeys, you know.
Heh, you can put the Arulco system somewhere in there as well, on the Rim, as a place ruled by a semi-renegade Taiidani warlord. Just for laughs. Who knows, maybe we'll need a suitably despicable villain someday in the future.

having ideas is one thing. putting them to use is another. I find myself needing improvement in the latter department. |
