Sector names

[Barrager]

Terminus Trantor Smyrno are all from Isaac Asimov's Foundation Series, they are in some of the larger maps, infact they are in almost all the Diamond maps. if any of you have not read those books, DO IT NOW! his origionality kept me always waiting to see how a situation was handled.

Solap was one of the original developers. It's his handle.

Ahh at least someone else appreciates Asimov..
All of the diamond maps were created by yours truely, the names chosen were mainly from Azimov's foundation trillogy, One sector in Spiderweb is named after the famous starwars planet destroyed in episode IV and some other maps have names from Heinlen and EE Doc Smith novels..

I liked reading Asimov, but things got a bit predicatble. Maybe that has more to do with the fact that I read most of his books one after another. It has been about 12 years, so perhaps it is time to re-read them. BTW -- it would be cool to add some of this information to the 'history of the game'.

Perhaps listing the maps/sectors and then dividing it up? anyone up for this?
