Funnily enough, the theories of Jump Drive in the "Official" background
is
one thing that we HAVE defined and explained in some detail, as
published
in the FTFB (Fleet Book vol.1). Of course, that doesn't prevent anyone
from
using Warp Drives, Jump Points, Jump gates, Alderson Points, Infinite
Improbability Drives, Ludicrous Speed Drives or anything else for that
matter if they prefer... :)
