Well, back online after the weekend. And more comments on comments... 1) Someone already answered this, but here it comes from me as well... According to spelljammer system the gravity does not seem to be the force keeping planets on orbits around the star (who knows what does). So this is not an issue. 2) Someone asked about teleporting to a small object in space. Ok, IF there was a small target in wildspace without it's own gravity well, it could not be teleported on without knowing its location. Problem in here is that according to spelljammer-system, Each material object does have its own gravity well, unless it is in the gravity well of some larger object (remember, each object takes its own air envelope as it leaves the ship). - Interesting point there btw, I have never really tried to figure that out too carefully, but how fast would a ship engaging in heavy and regular combat lose its air envelope just by using its large weapons? ;-) I sort of doubt the loss would be serious enough to bother with, but still an interesting point.
