Nyrath the Nearlywise has created a node-map of the Tuffleyverse and
posted
it here
http://www.projectrho.com/ft/ftmap2.html
where it can be found with various other Full Thrust Maps.
Or if you're after other starmaps, try here

Errm, depends what you're fighting over. If it's resources and
population
bases then most starsystems are choke points and that's where you have
battles. Couple this with some sort of limitation on ship range, be it
'supply lines' as in John's campaign, or 'radius from command post' as
in my
campaign (which is lifted from the 'Stellar Conquest' boardgame) and
then
approach corridors become apparent and the possibility of defending or
denying areas is feasable.
Am enjoying this discussion, BTW, please keep throwing the ideas out!
