By the way, I'd like to check my understanding of how the MT speed works. Here's how I understand it; it appears at somewhere between Warp 8 and Warp 12, on a random course into known space. It may randomly change direction any turn that it would normally stay in known space, which puts it on a new, random heading and increases warp by 1 (which may take it out of known space). On the turn that it would normally exit known space and disappear, it may instead turn around and head back into known space (on a random vector), and decrease warp by 1.

Almost, but not quite. I've seen warp increases and decreases in both "phases", and often it doesn't change speed at all. Sherlock



So many Stars, so few Missiles!

In space no one can hear you scheme! Deal
