Dark Nebula 2900 - Two Subsectors It Is!

After receiving some input from my readers and the Traveller community at large, I decided to keep the two Subsectors format of my Dark Nebula quasi-OTU setting. I was recommended a four-Subsector (Quadrant) format, but the original Dark Nebula boardgame maps lend themselves better to two Subsectors side by side. There are 8 maps, each 8x10 hexes, but each hex being half a parsec; so each boardgame map is 4x5 parsecs - a quarter Subsector! Changing it to four would change the map considerably.

Here is the existing map, which I will keep using:

And I have commissioned professional subsector maps, made by Gavin Dady:



Should be a fun setting to play in!
