    Nice, noticed that some of my creations made in on the map, guess I have to give it 3 or 4 dralasite thumbs up.
    I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers!

    Hi Jedion: What issue did your Laco story appear? Also, would you have any name suggestions for some of the other land features?

    OK. I noticed a typo with the diameter and the average temperature listed on the map didn't match Tom Verreault's article, so I adjusted those for version 6.5.

    and who's to say my info was all that good? I couldn't even tell you when I got the average temp from at this point. For all I know i simply ran this system generator till I got results that I thought looked like Laco:

    I'm a firm believer in not reinventing the wheel... though I'm modifying it a bit.

    OK, I guess I mislead everyone when I said that version six was the final, final version.

    With map version number 7, I moved Point Glass closer to the main Tetrarch ruins and then shifted the positions of Mo's Easy and Davo Bay accordingly.
