  It also disrupts the referees longterm planning. Before the rebellion there
were a static situation that would look essentially the same for decades. There
were the frontier wars, but they never led to any big changes, so the ref
could happily plot away in the total conviction that no major changes would
lie ahead.
  Then came the rebellion, and now nobody really knows what will happen in 1122
since the Rebellion Soucebook just goes up to 1121 or something. Besides,
who needed a soucebook of that kind before the rebellion?

  This change is best illustrated by the contents of the Traveller News Service.
Before the rebellion normal news were "4 vargr corsairs captured". Post-Strephon
it is "4 Billions dead when <random emperor> bombs <random planet>."
