Just when you thought it was safe to go in the Vanguard Reaches --
I was looking at my brand-spankin'-new copy of Solomani&Ftierle (Aslan? what
Aslan?) over break, when something on the Hierate map caught my eye. DGP
apparently is salvaging some remnants from the old PP work! Look for these
governments: Eslyat (formerly located on Beyond/VG border), Zhodani colonies
(same locale, formerly various "Adminstrative Districts"), Federation of
Garonne (formerly a single world in VG, now in Beyond), Duchy of Treyln
(formerly "Trelyn Domain") and the Murians (new location).
On comparison to the old supplement however, it seems that the star positions
were changed, as well as the density in parts of the sectors. Interesting.
So PP's stuff is no longer any good (a mantra often repeated here) but hasn't
been completely lost. I really am going to miss DGP's good work in trying to
reconcile old contradictions....
