I am trying to craft a planet for my alien race, the Atlantans/Atlanteans, to reside on within the Anargo Sector. If it won't interfere with the ASp too much, could I locate the planet in one of the "imperial" subsectors? I don't want to have it in the "other" subsector because it seems right now as the dumping ground for ideas, as well as the home of Aoideans, space wrecks, and a very nasty uber-demon. Also, it fits the Atlantans to be watching the Imperium from right under their noses. I thought the Shrineworld subsector would be the least impossible place for this idea, since everybody is too busy praying and chanting to check out faint sensor ghosts. Would this be permissible by the ASP Powers That Be?

Wait a minute and I'll go and find them...
Wait a minute, I am them! Right, erm...
The Power that is Being has no objection in principle. If it's not too much of a bother, have a look on the list and pick out two or three options and ask. This is primarily because I'm being greedy, and I'm getting wanting to keep all of the standard atmosphere earth-sized worlds with a decent star for the humans in order to save myself work. ;D If you don't want to sift through the list, I could look for a world with appropriate characteristics for you.

Where's the list? And what list?

Horrible, evil computer. It crashes on me, it does. Stupid computer. Evil computer. Its Machine Spirit is corrupted by the dark gods…
Anyway, available worlds are (full list on “the planets” thread further down): UWP Statistics for the "Shrineworld Subsector" 50,23,38 - M-V - A6748BE-6 N 912 Im 9A 6 47,23,35 - M-V - C96AA95-D S Hi Wa 123 Im 2B( 26) 47,23,38 - M-V - C637221-A Lo 803 Im 670 * 48,23,39 - M-V - AAF588A-B N 300 Im 3A(28) 48,26,36 - M-V - C85AA9D-8 Hi Wa 814 Im 8C(20) 48,26,37 - K-V - X000000-0 As Ba Lo 014 Im 000 48,26,40 - M-V - X622000-0 Ba Lo 023 Im 520 49,20,41 - M-V - X000000-0 As Ba Lo 004 Im 000 50,22,40 - M-VI - A466AA9-F Hi 910 Im 130 50,24,38 - M-V - E160386-5 De Lo 202 Im 030 51,20,35 - F-V C335300-7 S Lo 700 Im 930 51,22,36 - M-V – X434000-0 Ba Lo 015 Im 530 51,22,38 - M-V - X100000-0 Ba Lo Va 002 Im 000 51,24,40 - M-V - X546000-0 Ba Lo 022 Im 540 51,26,41 - M-V - DA96998-6 S Hi 300 Im CD6 * 52,20,36 - M-V - X7C3000-0 Ba Fl Lo 002 Im 140 52,20,37 - M-V - X512000-0 Ba Ic Lo 015 Im 020 52,21,35 - M-V - C875511-7 S Ag 503 Im 154 * 52,21,36 - M-V - X324000-0 Ba Lo 001 Im 280 52,24,37 - Lost Planet (terrestrial) 52,26,37 - M-V - C330234-7 S De Lo 810 Im 010 53,21,36 - M-V - X201000-0 Ba Ic Lo Va 004 Im 020 53,21,40 - K-V - X312000-0 Ba Ic Lo 000 Im 040 53,25,39 - M-V - A547ABB-A Hi 614 Im 86(13) *
Please avoid the ones with an asterisk (*), as these will be the easiest to build for human settlement (both in the fluff, as they are the most terran and therefore most likely to attract attention, and in the project).

Thanks. Which of those are water worlds?

I do apoligize about those asterisks, I was reading the Hydrosphere as Atmosphere. Drat.
Anyway:
47,23,35 - M-V - C96AA95-D S Hi Wa 123 Im 2B( 26) 48,26,36 - M-V - C85AA9D-8 Hi Wa 814 Im 8C(20)
Either of these have 95-100% water coverage, earthish size and a non-corosive atmosphere. The second's atmosphere is notedly thinner than Terra, whereas the second is roughly simmilar The first has proto-cellular life only, the second a native proto-sentient race (tool using etc.)

I want to use the first one, but there's one major snag. I know from reading other posts that adjusting star type is an absolute no-no unless unavoidable. I think I might have to change mine, because star type M-V has all available planets in the Outer zone, making my water world into a cosmic ice cube. Not at all pleasant for my water-dwelling race. I'd like to change it to star type F5, if possible, to save the trouble of rearranging the planets (my mainworld is currently in orbit 4 out of 6, and F5 types have a single habitable orbit in orbit 4.

F5 is Soviet frag grenade with radius of deathzone of 125 metres, replaced since 1970s by smaller version, so that chances of survival by thrower increased. As to F-V star, I guess you should first give valid arguments on why you cannot be on closer orbit? The search for the system with similar stats (I mean UWP as seems you haven’t yet roll dice) but other star is also the possibility – we have 21,000 worlds, so I may bet there are at least two similar UWP worlds and with differing only in star type there are also some.

As to F-V star, I guess you should first give valid arguments on why you cannot be on closer orbit? Just being lazy, really. I did indeed start rolling, so I wanted to keep my planets in the same place. But xince changing the star type will affect everything else, I'll start from scratch.

Geez, that's really helpful. I am glad that you appreciate this ;D Just being lazy, really. I did indeed start rolling, so I wanted to keep my planets in the same place. But xince changing the star type will affect everything else, I'll start from scratch. I am glad that you decided to change star, because this is more than common problem that most people do not think that world could be really hot/cold and it is very hard to have 9 habitable worlds with ‘normal temperature as sometimes happens in GW maps…
