[RG] Three Dimensional Map of the Reborn Galaxy
Yuu:
Made the RG 10,000 ly to make the numbers even at save me hours calculating the coordinates system.
The Galactic Core.
The line is a height indicator for a star system.
Close up of the star system with galactic disk at background.
The system.
Space is... big.
Will explain more tomorrow.
Gotta slee
UFO King:
Cool! Alright, so the galaxy is 10% Milky Way size, 5% Andromeda size, and 20% Triangulum size. I'd say all our activities take place in a region 900 by 900 ly. In the Mid Rim for convenience and slight realism, why not? Au (the Naucean star) should probably be at the center, seeing as how they're basically the ones who ushered in the Golden Age of the modern era. (The Kratair and Graidient have been around longer, but Kratair progress slower than others due to their reptilian physiology and Graid aren't too intested in other stars.)
I've actually been working on a 10x10 grid map for quite some time now, mapping out the galaxy's known species. Maybe you could wait for that to be finished until you start putting star systems everywhere, please? Oh, and the reason I chose 900 ly instead of 1,000 is because I accidentally made that map of Perrachi space in 9x9 squares. I could fix that if everyone wanted it, but it would take a while and the multiple of 3 thing works a lot better on grid paper.

That's gonna cause some very troubling discrepancies, I think.
Not that I'm personally for or against it, but there're several Silver Age civilizations that are explicitly stated, both in story and in their profile, to have originated from, occupy or are heavily involved with the inner rim.
Aside from that, there are also numerous Words of Veterans that explicitly state that the majority of the Golden Age races are centered on the outer rim. :-\

Actually, I was gonna start asking people where they want their star systems to be.
That grid map would plenty, though. I might use it to get the coordinates of the Golden and Silver Age civilizations. :)

Sure thing. :)
Hey, other guys out there, what do you think?
UFO King:
Well, I could do a multiple of 5 map if it's rectangular. Say, can you give some specific examples of Inner Rim species? Nothing springs to mind...Nothing I can regard as really canon, that is. (I'm making a timeline too, if you weren't aware.)

The Folicans are near the outer side of the border of the Inner and Middle Rims, with a considerable portion being involved in piracy there.
The Hairy Sneegles are also near the border, but on the other side.
The Blargbells reside in the Inner Rim proper.
The Spieroirs are quite near the Inner Realm.
While not a species per se, REDSTAR (Space Commies FTW!) was involved in the Inner Rim.
The Barroc Confederacy (Awesome Faceless are Awesome! ^_^) both live in and pretty much own a not-so-small number of illegal operations in the Inner Rim. The Yurohuihli, an alien species that became part of the Confederacy, also reside there.
The GalEx Intragalactic market commonly sells products from the Inner Rim. The same thing happens in most slave markets.
The Huvonians are residents of the Inner Rim. One of them in particular, Farkal, was the one who killed Axon's father, ultimately triggering the young boy's rise to heroism, and piracy.
The Mon-Krai have a lot of business deals, both legal and illegal, in the Inner Rim.
Lastly, there's the Communicants who, while not really from the Inner Rim, did use it to stage their invasion.
