I think many of these issues can be dealt with fairly easily and with only minor changes - a word removed here, a phrase added there.

Also, can you provide some additional background for the universe you are creating here? You've mentioned a fictional setting that the story is based in a couple of times. Does the story take place in this setting, or is it inspired by the setting, or is the setting still in your head and the story is part of bringing into existence?

A link is good, or a summary of the kind of world this is (or both) would be good to provide backstory and context.

Thanks!

It does take place in the setting. And remember To The Planets Beyond? Well, this takes place in the still-in-development Extended Edition.

Then ask how they would fight; are warcraft going to launch from Earth straight to the Jovian system? Do the Terran authorities have military/industrial bases elsewhere? Will there be vessels stationed on a moon of Jupiter itself etc.

Agreed. And truth be told.....there is a reason Thebe even had a confrontation in the first place and it involves one such military facility. But calm down, after I handle the front on Saturn.....next stop: Thebe!
