Subject: [VV] Vectorverse -- Ok so far?

How about a list of things agreed to so far?
(Ie: those things in common consensus...I think.)

Setting Details:
Setting name: Vector Verse    --(laserlight@quixnet.net)
Message filter: [VV]   --(Brendan.Robertson@dva.gov.au)
Thread Location: gzg-l main list   --(laserlight@quixnet.net)
Content: As original as possible.   --(Hosford.Donald@acd.net / 
laserlight@quixnet.net)

Setting Notes:
Earth: Non existant.  (Setting not related to GZG Timeline.)
Aliens: Humans only.
Ancients/Old ones: None.   --(laserlight@quixnet.net / 
Brendan.Robertson@dva.gov.au)
Tech: Existing tech only.  (Ie: no living tech....)   
--(laserlight@quixnet.net)
Movement: Vector only.	(Is there a differernce beyond the game rules?) 

--(laserlight@quixnet.net)
Nations at different tech levels.   --(laserlight@quixnet.net)
    First Tier -- Highest tech available.
    Second Tier -- Middle of the road.
    Third Tier -- Lowest space travel/battling nations.
FTL drive:  Two or more methods.   --(Several.)
FTL Types:
    Jump drive -- instant
    Hyperdrive -- basic Hyperspace.
    Stargate/Wormhole network -- think starfire.
    Stargates / single bubble.	  --(agoodall@att.net)
    Drives with limited area usage, but faster speed.

History notes:
"Long night" --(mwbrown@sonic.net / Hosford.Donald@acd.net)
Suggests that a large star nation existed in the past.	Anywhere upto a 
1000 years ago.  It controlled a sizable area.	Maybe a sizable piece of

the galaxy.  Many worlds were settled.	This nation collapsed. The 
reason can be "lost in the mists of time".  The various nations in the 
setting were some of these former colony worlds that have reemerged from

the long night and set up new nations.

The following decisions need to be made:   
--(Brendan.Robertson@dva.gov.au)

FTL Travel: ?? (Wormhole, Point-to-Point FTL, Lightspeed drive, Wave
Motion
Engine, etc)

N-Space Travel: Vector

Colonisation method: ?? (Cryosleep, generation ships, prison transport,
wealthy businessmen, greedy corporations)

Galactic Economy: ?? (by this I mean what is the most valuable resource?
Water? Oxygen? Unobtainium?)

What is the imperative for expansion: ?? (population pressure, lack of
resources, interspecies war)

What level of automation will starships have: ?? (FB standard 1 man per
mass, 5,000 men to man a destroyer, etc).
