undeveloped sectors

BwapTED

SOC-13
Which, if any, sectors on the big OTU map have not been developed in either official/commercial projects or fan-published sources?


I don't want to write up a sector somebody else has already developed or is working on now.

I'm ignorant of the protocols for developing a fan-made sector that would be compatible with the wiki and the big map. Can someone please enlighten me?

It sort of depends on your goals.

Do you want to take some existing data and refine it and fill in some details? Then look through the sectors on Traveller Map and pick one of the "Unreviewed" sectors and start working.

Do you want to have a completely blank slate to fill in? There are a few blank sectors in the TravellerMap, so pick one and start rolling dice.

I would suggest you subscribe to the T5 Second Survey mailing list, which is where many of these exact things are discussed with people interested in doing this exact work.

Save Vargr Space!

Please, for the love of the Ancients, do not get it in your heads to populate any more sectors coreward of the Vargr Extents with anything other than Vargr. It matters not how friendly other sophonts are or how stealthy they are passing coreward through the Extents or Enclaves. It doesn't matter what era or timeframe, especially the Vargr Pillaging era. There are enough Corsair Bases and Naval Bases across the Extents and Enclaves to turn anything less than a Tigress-class to dust.

Please do not devaluate the Vargr Extents with any more non-Vargr shenanigans in those coreward sectors. The Akumgeda, Gvegh, Nakagun, Logaksu, Urzaeng, Suedzuk and Roth Thokken will own your "colonial exodus", eat your "from the galactic core", or Long Night escapees for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

If you must develop unclaimed sectors anywhere near Vargr Space, might I suggest rimward-trailing Rfigh and Tar'G'kell'p Sectors? What's out there, you might ask? Yileans, Suedzuk Vargr, Roth Thokken, some far-ranging Irilitok, and K'kree. There is just enough to maintain an unexplored frontier by developing the rimward-trailing subsectors.

There are reasons why the sectors coreward of the Vargr Extents are uncolonized. Please do not dilute and de-fang the Vargr by developing there. Exceptions to this are revising faulty sectors, especially the ones with duplicate worlds. Dhuerorrg, Ngathksirz and Fa Dzaets are in dire need of rectification.
 
Oh, while I have in the past posted some Vargr-related notions, I wasn't planning on doing anything with the Vargr this time around.


I'm looking more at the rimward part of the map.

I joined. Thanks!

(Maniacal giggle)You maybe want to cooperate on working up the Phlange sector?

I had plans of putting the 'Asura' (with the 'Hawa' in proximity?), in the bottom half, somewhere. I've been putting it off for a long while, and this would be a great deal of incentive to 'fish or cut bait'.

PM me if interested, and we can 'cuss and discuss', and figure something out.
