Head of State:  Me... We'll work on that. 
Capitol: Wayland
Faction:  The Empire of the Hand
Short Version:  Imperial Expansionist Hidden Empire
Abbreviation:  EotH
Slang/Alias/Shorthand: "Those other guys in Star Destroyers," or "Who the heck..." or sometimes "The OTHER white armor."  That last one sounded racist but I was picturing Stormtroopers.

* Fair note, this story just got a bit more complicated since someone is playing Thrawn in Bastion, but whatever I'll try to make it work.

Okay everybody. I'm sure there's at least ONE system in the galaxy that you are itching to grab regardless of what the rules might say, so I'm going to go ahead and begin...

PLANETARY DRAFT ROUND ONE!!

Private Message me your FIRST PICK for a system.

Political Capitols are off-limits. Additionally, the Hapan Ascension will be taking the 4 systems that represent the Hapes Cluster in this game, so those are off-limits as well.

Once I get all the first picks in, we will hold off on ROUND TWO until we post the Basic Gameplay Rules (within the next few days) pertaining systems. If there are any conflict in system picks, I will do some brokering between players.

If you pick anything that "doesn't fit" for your faction/politics, there's a very good chance I'll veto it and ask you to re-pick. If you want to avoid that from happening, just try and stay away from systems traditionally aligned to one faction or another. Remember, the in-character concept of the Pellaeon-Mothma Treaty is that these systems are picking YOU, not the other way around necessarily.
