I don't know why you keep saying it works best in that crappy MicroSoft browser, but in Netscape 4.6 (which worked fine before) the map is all "kerphlooey". Just thought you'd like to know....**
Suggestion 1: Bite the bullet and use IE for this. I hate it too, but it seems to be the industry standard, so I found it easiest to optimize the map for that.
Suggestion 2: You're using Netscape 4.6? Try upgrading to 4.7. It looks marginally passable in Netscape 4.77 (ZenMastaT's fleet is the only one that looks enough out of place to appear in the wrong system), although the image map sections look like crap.
I think I may have a 30 day trial of some WYSIWYG editor lying around on a CD somewhere, maybe I can try that sometime and see if it can make code that will work in all the browsers. We'll see.

The fighters are so pathetic I'm not gonna bother with them. The destroyers have enough point defenses to destroy them quickly. Can I replace the unused hangar space with more guns and missiles?**
Few things:
Sentarus Prime is a popular system, I just haven't had enough info to post a fleet there. RC (The new Emperor) wanted to be there first, so I think I'll put him there. Second, the Cruisers come with the Heavy Fighters. The 2 Heavy Fighters on board the Cruisers are part of the cost of the Cruiser, so I think you might as well use them. If you want Cruisers that don't come with fighters, look into Battlecruisers. However, there isn't much of a provision for modifying ships to exchange hangar space for additional guns. Empty hangar space isn't really a big deal though, it doesn't run up the ship price much at all. The only other thing is that fleets aren't supposed to have over 200 million credits worth of any particular ship type. That rule gets bent a bit here and there, but I'm not going to bend it out to allowing 300 million in Destroyers. Since you haven't been around long, you probably just didn't see that, so it's Ok. 7 Destroyers with 4 Heavy Cruisers (similar weapons load) and a fighter to suck up the last few millon. Sound good?

At this point, as soon as I have fleet info for everyone.
BTW CD, game type doesn't matter on battle.net for chats (I've been able to talk to a guy using DIIx while I was on BW before), but you do have to be logged in to the same Gateway. I think the two of you are both in the US East area anyway, though.
