On the flip side, it also makes it pretty easy to fix; just figure out
how far out you want your limit given a G class star, and calculate what
the acceleration due to the Sun's gravity is at that point.  Then 
limit the system to below that g acceleration.

The nice thing about systems that don't exist is that you can fix them
real easy for play balance.  (8-)
