I and a friend of mine who has both SWG and JTL just read about "Rage of the Wookies" and about the new Sector around Kashyyk. After reading it, he and I got to thinking about other Space Sectors that would be great to fly in, say Hoth, Alderaan after it's destructio by the 1st Death Star, Coruscant or Nar Shadda (City Planets if I'm correct), a Space Sector with a Death Star for PVP is there isn't one already; haven't been to Kessel yet. We also said Bespin either space around Bespin or in the atmosphere around Cloud City or both.? Another friend of ours even mentioned Dagobah which we all know as the planet where Yoda spent his last years.
I have not read many of the Star Wars books which I am sure the list is endless of many other Star Sectors, ones I could never think of, so please post other ideas and/or comments.
Many people I have heard and talked to say that JTL is in need of a Content Upgrade. What do you all think??!!

"We also said Bespin either space around Bespin or in the atmosphere around Cloud City or both.?"
As far as that, I like the Super Sector idea, from Hoth to Anoat(asteroid field system) to Bespin, where you could fly at sublight from one end to the other, with the descent into the clouds on the Bespin side(though they'd have to change the background maps as you travelled, with Hoth and Bespin getting smaller or larger if you were getting further away or closer to them); maybe have floating cities behavein a manner similar to landing stations.
As far as the value of a single Death Star to Imperial Politics(it's availability in A New Hope is what makes it so the Imperial Senate can be disbanded, and they had to make the second one to maintain psychological control over the Empire), I don't think any other than the wire-frame prototype in the Maw(in Kessel Space,in that grouping of black holes)should exist at this point in time.
Geonosis would certainly be interesting, with the rings.
Mon Calamari and Bilbringi for Rebel and Imperial systems with shipyards(which could factor into the launch of capital ships)?

I must say I was disaponted when I flew around Corrilia and there was no shipyards ther. As the books talk about corillia being a major shipyard area.
Just my two cents

Bespin would definitely be cool. A "beggars canyon" typerace would be great. Also if you've ever played any of the Rougue Squadron series it would bee cool to see some of the larger scale space battles with multiple capitol ships and more TIEs and X-Wings than you can shake a stick at. JTL seems very small scale when it comes to battles.

"JTL seems very small scale when it comes to battles."
Well, apparently, they designed the sectors so small and limited in scope that they can barely fit one or 2 capital shipsin without messing everthing up. Seems they put more emphasis on "THINGS" in space than actual...SPACE.
Was fun in "TIE Fighter" when there could be around 20 capital ships in view, and you could fly to each of them.

Hoth would be cool with the time line have a few ISDs in system but just for looks. Flights of ties maybe even Wing missions that you can get from the ISDs for Imp pilot and Mon Cal cruisers for Rebels.
A second Death star wouldn't fit in the timeline (but then again neither do all the Jedi running around major cities) But the next spot for the Death Star is endor. Maybe with the new minning in space Imperial or neutrals could do missions gathering resources for the Death Star II. And over time watch the Death Star be built.
If your looking for big space battles go to DS there always battles there (just watch for punk gankers)
I didn't know That Kashyyyk had much space travel to and from the planet but I guess we'll see.
I vote for Coruscant and Alderaan I can imagine the size for those asteroids. Good place to set up a harvestor.

Corellia is also a lot more urban that what we have. Coronet is supposed to be huge!
I say yes to Geonosis. I'd love to fly through the rings
Mon Calamari, maybe.
Bilbringi is a giant Asteroid field...cool
Kuat would be a good idea if they put more space stations in the game
Bespin, no. Esp the atmospheric ones. It's bad enough to fly through the nebulas in Dath. Imagine a whose sector of that.
Nal Hutta/ Nar Shada should be in, both ground and space. Nar Shada is a moon, so it would be jus like Naboo/Rori. Plus lots of options for neutrals/smugglers, bounty hunters, ect on both planets ground. Think of the possabilities.
