It is a standard Stellar Conquest map, 20.5 x 32 hexes, 656 hexes
total.	54 stars, each star with between 1 and 3 useable planets (I
removed the worst cards, including all the NUP's, from the deck).  The
players will not know what is at each star, until the investigate it. 
This is not a GZG genre game.  I don't really care for the official
background, but love the game systems.
