Proposed Revisions to Magyar Sector

Traveller5 introduced several new or revised rules for star system generation, and the T5 Second Survey applied these rules to the legacy data for the Official Traveller Universe. The fruits of this review are hosted at Traveller Map.

The T5SS did not attempt to generate two new T5 parameters for the legacy data: whether the mainworld is a planet or satellite; and orbital position, which in turn determines climate codes and whether the planet rotates or is tide-locked.

Magyar sector is a good candidate to apply these new T5 rules, because it has had relatively limited canonical treatment, so there isn’t much to inadvertently “break.” At the same time, Magyar lies adjacent to several sectors that have had a lot of canonical work, and they provide some helpful guidelines for development.

General Notes

I’ve been working with the sector for quite a while, so I offer the following general thoughts:

  1. World Names. One appeal of Magyar is its location at the crossroads of Vilani, Terran, and Aslan influence. It also contains three important Solomani member-states with their own distinct cultures: the Wuan Technology Association, the New Slavic Solidarity, and the Reformed Dootchen Estates. However, the current world names do not reflect this complicated history. Dakin Burdick supplied the system names not already provided in Atlas of the Imperium and Sunbane. However, he was working without access to the two primary sources of canonical information on the sector: Pete Celella’s work in Solomani and Aslan and Travellers’ Digest 14. I therefore propose a handful of changes to world names to reflect these subsequent sources. As very few Magyar worlds are actually named in canon, these proposals would not overwrite existing work:
    1. Vilani. Magyar subsectors D, H, and L were part of the Ziru Sirka, but all the world names in those subsectors are clearly Terran in origin. In contrast, adjacent subsectors in Daibei, Diaspora, and the Solomani Rim have several Vilani names for Imperial systems. I propose seeding a handful of Vilani names into subsectors D, H, and L to help them better “blend in” with adjacent subsectors. I chose worlds with Pop 7 or 8, high enough to retain a native Vilani culture but low enough not to be named in Atlas of the Imperium.
    2. Slavic. As noted in Solomani and Aslan, “During the Long Night, the [New Slavic Solidarity] worlds banded together to defend against piracy and raiding, preserving their shared Slavic language and culture in the process.” I therefore propose substituting a few Russian-inspired names for Solidarity worlds.
    3. Wuan. As described in Solomani and Aslan, the Wuan Technology Association has roots in an old Terran Korean-Japanese corporation, so I propose substituting a couple of Korean-inspired names for Wuan worlds.
    4. Trokh. The Aslan were active in Magyar as traders and raiders throughout the Long Night and Aslan Border Wars. We know, for example, from GURPS Sword Worlds that during the Long Night there was at least limited travel between Terra and Wu, and presumably between Wu and Kusyu. By mapping the likely J-2 routes we can identify potential Aslan trade worlds. While the Solomani doubtless renamed many Aslan worlds, I assumed some names—particularly for unattractive worlds—stuck.
  2. UWPs
    1. Several Magyar worlds have an “illegal” combination of size 1 and hydro 1. I propose increasing the size of those worlds to 2 or greater
    2. Since T5 allows for world sizes greater than A, I propose increasing a few size A worlds to size B+
    3. The Magyar sector planetary data suffers from the notorious “stuck in groove” problem plaguing many of the Sunbane sectors. This was exacerbated by the size hack used by Don McKinney to set a minimum planetary size for certain atmospheres. This results in an abnormally large number of worlds with planetary data of 550, 540, and 541. I propose slightly adjusting the size and atmo of a few worlds with repeating planetary data to create more variety.
  3. Remarks
    1. A few of the proposed UWP tweaks would result in changes to the Remarks.
    2. Like the Solomani Rim, the Imperial subsectors of Magyar were captured in the Solomani Rim War, and as such many should be under military rule. Based on a review of Rim data, I propose removing current ownership and adding the Military Rule (Mr) remark to the following Magyar worlds that are within 8 parsecs of the Solomani Confederation border and have Pop 5+ and Gov 6: Esuan (2004), Plage (2008), Tyrrell (2816), Veneet (2519), Douglas (2304), Last Pine (2312).
    3. The Wuans are a distinct self-geneered minor race, so any world with a Wuan Technology Association allegiance should be assumed to populated by Wuans. I propose adding some Human populations to the remarks.
    4. For Magyar sector, I generated orbital positions and determined whether the mainworlds were a planet or satellite. I restricted the results to avoid satellite worlds in orbit 0 or 1.
    5. One consequence of applying T5 rules to existing sector data is the prevalence of M type stars results in a large number of tide-locked worlds, which can be tedious and hard to explain. One work-around would be to assume some worlds in orbit 0 or 1 have resonant orbits such as Mercury in the Sol system. I therefore did not apply the Twilight Zone (Tz) remark for the following worlds with Atmo 456789 and Hydro 45678: Greenvald (0504), Jondrea (1004), Ko's World (1105), Rita's Place (2205), Nahn (2403), Guenivier (2505), Lontarelli (2801), Paputsus (2804), Stanko (2810), Sweet (2901), Wells (0614), Fatridge (0712), Sumerfelt (1620), Reed (1720), Clarmoment (2415), Fornorb (2616), Danko (2811), Rouern (3213), Awrenek (0330), Kriss (1021), Rasilha (1129), Enbaum (1427), Acara (1627), Yognigath (1928), Fatagin (2229), Yarling (2622), Sammadar (0440), Adria (0635), Sodra (0736), Cea (0934), 023-876 (1139), Tyche (2234), Geb (2434), Lazog (2638), Bouzouba (2932), Wongxia (3037).
  4. Economic Extensions. A few of the proposed UWP tweaks affect Ex values. In addition, T5.10 revised the formula for calculating Infrastructure for low-population worlds.
  5. Cultural Extensions. A few of the proposed UWP tweaks affect Cx values.
  6. Allegiances. Four Magyar worlds inside the Solomani Confederation borders have no allegiance code in Atlas of the Imperium. While these were assumed to be errors and changed to SoCf in an earlier T5SS review pass, I propose changing them to Non-Aligned, Human-Dominated instead. Not only is this a more interesting choice, it is also consistent with the Alpha Crucis data, which shows several non-aligned worlds inside the Confederation.
  7. Stellar Data. All of Magyar sector lies within 50 parsecs of Terra, and several of the stars in the current data would easily be bright enough to be seen from Earth. None of these had any likely real-world match, so I propose down-shifting these stars to something less bright. In exchange, I propose adding a handful of real-world stars that would be expected to fall roughly in the same direction and distance as Magyar.
