WEll I know there aren't Jump points per say. But just like a desert
there are places that humans will congregate. I mean jump points are
anywhere there aren't some big gravity well that will drag you back to
normal space. If you had a fleet that was planning on leaving my system,
and I wanted to stop you, generating a grav well out where you plan to
make your jump from would certainly screw up your plans...
