StarNES: Updates Without Number (Epoch I)

Don't forget yo neublae again nutranurse. Would you like to conspire with me to cut the galaxy in half with Neublae, making the only posible crossing through wormholes? *wrings hands*
 
I gladly would love to do so!
 
Well wormholes can be placed in nebulas, so therefore nebulae are traversable or else you couldn't get to the wormhole. They may be more dangerous, but they are certainly traversable.
 
Badlands from the very first episode of Voyager, perhaps?

I like this idea. Make the nebulas actually traversable. However ships will take a certain amount of damage with a chance of being actually destroyed.

This opens up a whole lot of possibilities and strategic choices later on.
 
Nebulae are transversable, and even add a kind of natural cloaking effect (only powerful sensors can penetrate a nebula), but as Eltain guessed are "badlands" and are liable to damage whatever is travelling inside of them.

If we ever get a habitable/gaian world inside a nebula on the map I anticipate some race coming about that will adapt their ships to nebula-travel, or something. Also, space-monsters in nebulae!

Awesome

15¤ - large planet Voldenrung
-----2¤ - moon
10¤ medium planet Levatine
-----2¤ - moon
8¤ - large asteroid field
 
Then we need double/tripple lanes of Nuebulae, with asteroid belts and brown dwarfs and black holes inside, waiting to strike!

I am eager for such a product.
 
OMG giant space whales living in Nebula. Long live GalaxyNES in all our hearts (even if some of us were only lurkers)
 
Y'know what'd be cool? Being able to put down a small black hole in an empty (or perhaps mostly empty - no star, only asteroids or a nebula) hex. It wouldn't om nom any surrounding hexes.

Also, could an asteroid field survive in a nebula?

They was my inspiration.

Asteroids could survive, yeah. I have no idea about the science behind it, but from a gameplay/galactic-godthing standpoint I would say that asteroids in nebula would be composed of stronger stuff to keep from breaking down.

I'm totally willing to be a science consultant, if needed, though I must warn you, science is way more boring than science fiction. Nebulas (and asteroid belts, for that matter) are really, really empty. Space is just so big that even a little bit of stuff ends up seeming like a lot.

Also, bank all this turn.
 
I'll gladly listen to your advice then! I recognize that real science is not as cool as science fiction (on day one of my astronomy course last semester our professor played "Also sprach Zarathustra" while the star projector was slowly rising from the ground... two weeks later we were learning the basic mathematical principles of physics (it was an astronomy course for non-science people, such as myself)).
