About Starfalls


      Starfalls are an unique feature of this game binding all the far
flung regions of your empire together.  The concept is that they are
black holes warping space time so that instantaneous travel can be achieved.
Without starfalls the maximum movement your ships could achieve in one turn
would be 3 hexes for an Infinity Fleet or 2 for a Pi fleet.  Starfalls can be
found in much the same way as systems, however there are a limited number
of starfalls that can be found, based on the number of quadrants,
of your map,  as this limit is approached new starfalls found result in the
implosion of a starfall somewhere else on the map.
   When a starfall is found it is unfocused.  The first time you Traverse it,
you must have an explorer in your fleet.  Once the starfall is focused any
ships passing through it will arrive in the same quadrant thereafter.  The
specific hex within that quadrant, will be random each time a ship
Traverses it. Resources may be pooled through the starfall and recieved
at the quadrants downstream.
