xj128 outer space game
The world of outer space…in 128xjbot
The following is a Grid for one to place markers and of ships to play the game on. You can use dead reckoning or a protractor to determine turning ratios and speed of ships have fun.
The planets of the Out Land Map shows the distances in inter dimensional parsec units (IDPU) between the systems. It takes 1 week or 5 solar days to travel one IDPU. These distances can be used in the game to simulate a battle if you should chose.
You can travel between grid to grid but only when using the IDPU transfer unit on board the ship otherwise all travel is segmented in Coefficients of Acceleration. With turning ratios determine the rate of turn in a given game turn (or round when in combat)
Remember game time and real time is not the same so a week in the game can pass in seconds in real time and you can be playing with your ships on the grid right away. Lets make this clear for people playing the game there are turns rounds, rounds and turns all designed to break down game (generally a turn is ten minutes to a minute while a round is 10 seconds) Ships take turns playing rounds, however that is not the same as a game turn which can be a minutes or year or more or almost an infinite amount of time, with the players taking an instant for a game turn, and perhaps a few minutes or more for a game combat round. It is generally recommended that players play no more then 4 hours in a day of 128xjbot game. However, Warning this game could be addicting like sugar or coffee…LOL
It should be that time into a playable manageable system you must establish these at the onset of the game so you can break down game time playable. However, all action actual takes place in an imaginary world and not in the real one. Except hopefully in the positive lessons we learn and carry with us from day to day in our daily lives for being mindful of the people and being thankful for the beautiful world around us which is by far more comfortable then any found in the Out Lands. Referees take special note. One should always learn to be mindful of the passage of time and the importance of each moment the game is to be enjoyed it is for those who have the luxury of time to play. With little more then these few pages and a good imagination one can go anywhere in ones dreams.

Universal Rules of Engagement in outer space
Ships too distant to engage cannot engage in combat.
All ships even pirate and evil alien ships must identify themselves when called to do so over open space if able at all to communicate otherwise they must allow themselves to be destroyed or be taken prisoner.
All star ships will not fire on any other ship unless fired upon, unless an open state of war exists between pirates and evil space aliens.
All evil space alien and pirate vessels will break rule number 3
A starship is free to retreat when fired upon once out of a quadrant it is not a fair target.
Evil Space Aliens and pirates will take pot shots at star ships fleeing a micronanosector of a quadrant.
Combat Sequence
Int Roll (1d100) Push the random number button on your calculator and multiply by 100 do this for side A and side B or as many sides as there are whichever side is higher gets the initiative and gets to go first. They will all go in order highest to the lowest in order of Initiative values no ties the first one to roll the number of a tie goes before the next.
Let say A comes up 77 and B comes up 35 A the side selects a defense or weapon from its page or sheet or card or whatever your keeping your records on. Then side A declares what other action he/she is taking.
Then side B selects a weapon or defense.
Then side B declares what other actions he/she is taking. Then side B declares what other action he/she is taking. Note to Refs You must resolve the modifiers between the defenses and the weapons if any and then push the random button on the calculator and multiplying by 100 again and if any hit there targets. Then you calculate the damage by pushing the button on your random calculator and multiplying by 10 and adding it together for as many times as the number before the d10 says.
Then you repeat into the next round until one or the other starship breaks off the attack or is destroyed or captured

Robot Ship Probe virtually unlimited, based on fuel
Yes a parsec mine does not effect a entire parsec of space that much but it is placed in one and its immediate effect is within 10,000^2 kilometers of space.
Use your imagination to come up with crew and ship scenarios that make the game interesting everything can be played on computer now days but if you want to relax and enjoy a game with a referee and some friends Mutual agreed upon modifiers and randomization’s work best.
Note: one grid is about one micronanosector of a quadrant this may very due to scale limitation, as the ref must decide how many kilometers is represented by a single space on the grid in use..ome unit representing 10,000^2 kilometers is genally recommended. The size of a sector in a quadrant is actual a huge amount of space, hence the new term nanosector to represent the immediate arena of ship to ship play or combat.
Terms;
Micro nano micro sector 100,000^2 kilometers one grid…roughly and very roughly at that scaled down to 10,000^2k per square on grid
Micro nano sector 1000,000^2 kilometers
micro sector 100,000,000^2 kilomters
Sector 1000,000,000^2 kilometers
Also note the size of an actual galaxy in reality is always expanding, so the scale is always changing…in actuality in a galaxy that is 9x10^17 km which my info currently holds to be a size of the galaxy this scale is the only one that holds reasonable plausibility…only through interdemensional travel is it possible to reasonable to travel these distances…ships not traveling interdemensionally travel much slower. Only about ultrasonic speeds…Once the IDPU transfer system is engaged combat is not possible between ships
