I like the HoTT campaign rules. Great! Abstract like crazy. Just draw
your
grid on a map using mountain ranges, rivers forrests etc to divide the
'realms' and hey presto! Instant campaign, just add water. Non of this
keeping
track of supply lines and dull stuff like that.

I even did this for FT/Star Trek once with Realms such as 'The Neutral
Zone',
'Earth', 'Romulus', 'The Bad Lands', 'The Antaris(sp) Nebula', 'Kronos'
etc.

Great fun.
