Updated Hexographer map

I decided to make a few corrections to major trade routes, trying to make sure that all A & B -class starports were included without too many backwaters were included.  I also added an old Dominion jurisdiction marker from back in the days before the rebellion/civil war devastated the subsector capitol at hex 0707, now a desert world with less than 100,000 persons.

This doesn't quite meet the Traveller maps that many seem to be able to put together, but it will work for my purposes of solo play and universe development.  Please feel free to critique.

A map key:
  • the ring indicates the presence of Gas Giants in the system
  • blue - water is present on mainworld
  • white - no water is present on mainworld
  • yellow - there are fluid oceans on mainworld, but not H20
  • star - Naval base
  • triangle - Scout base
  • spear - Research facility
  • pi - TAS facility
  • red diamond - Pirate base

 Born on Rao [Industrial/Vacuum], a smallish moon in the Q'uanir system, Dinesh chose to see the known galaxy and joined the Q'uani Merchant Marines, as an Fleet Hand Apprentice, shortly after turning 18 years old.  Dinesh proved himself both capable [promoted to 4th Officer] and loyal [declined a chance to enter Q'uanir Navy as a Petty Officer] during his first term.

Dinesh re-upped with the Merchant Marines as a Bridge Hand, manning ship sensors.  During his second term he became involved with Ava Jensi, a young navigator.

Despite frustrations with his career seeming to come to a screeching halt, Dinesh signed on the the Q'uani Merchant Marines for another term as a Bridge Hand, maintaining his duties with ship sensors, but also becoming involved with the administration of the ship.  During this term, Dinesh befriended Jacob Grude, a broker working for Ling Standard on Gram.  Jacob convinced Dinesh that it was time to move on and become involved in the lucrative specialty trade market.

Deciding not to re-enlist, Dinesh collected his profit-sharing from the Merchant Marines collecting a sizable amount of credits and a desirable TAS Membership good for life.
