User blog:Miguelhdzb25/The Last Frontier - Map Game Proposal

Pretty much I have had this idea since September of 2015 and I couldn't find any way to actually make it work, but here it is. I hope you like my idea and I think it is one of the most original map game ideas so far.

Backstory
The year is 2902, and thanks to the designs of several scientists the spaceships are able to travel at the speed of light. The first mission is sent to Alpha Centauri, and it returns with success and the government of the United Earth Federation see that space fleets could be a viable option for exploring space without having to "predict" what's out there.

In this game you take the place of an admiral of the newly created Terran Space Fleet and you have under your belt 4 ships to explore space.

Map


This is the map. The star names in white mean that the star that it signals hasn't been explored yet. If it is on red it means that the star has been explored but not colonized or that it cannot be colonized. In green means that the star has a colony. If it is in yellow it means it is Sol.

How to Play
As I said before, you're the admiral of a four-ship fleet. When you join you need to fill this: You start with a flagship, which is the equivalent to a gunship, and 3 corvettes, that are small ships.
 * Admiral name:
 * Admiral nationality:
 * Flagship name:
 * Corvette 1 name:
 * Corvette 2 name:
 * Corvette 3 name:

As you may see, in the map there are quadrants. Each quadrant means 1 light year. And as your ship goes at 1 light year, well, you know.

When you explore a star you may find the next things: If you want more ships, you have to ask Sol. If they consider that you have been working well, they might give you another ship to reinforce your fleet.
 * 1) Unhabitable planets. (70% possibility)
 * 2) Habitable planets. (10% possibility)
 * 3) Nothing at all. (15% possibility)
 * 4) Aliens. (5% possibility)

If you're interested in settling a planet, you have to request a colony ship to Sol.

Doubts
If you have any doubt, please tell me.
