  S=  Space Combat Ranges. 
   Space Ranges are used with Space Combat and 
  with Space Sensors. S= R-5. 
   
   
  Band=  Space Combat Bands. 
   Space Combat Bands are used in Space Combat, 
  especially with Movement. 
   
  R=  World Combat Ranges. 
   World Combat Ranges are used with Personal 
  Combat; they are extended to extreme values for 
  comparison. R= S+5. 
   
  Light Delay= Light Speed Distances. 
   Light Speed Distances provide insight into 
  maximum radio and light time frames over distance. 
  STELLAR AND WORLD DIAMETERS 
   * Assumes Spectral G star.  
    
  Increase Band + 1 for Spectral A or F.  
    
  Decrease Band -1 for Spectral K or M. 
   ** Assumes typical world size = 3+.  
    
  Increase Band +1 for Gas Giant.  
    
  Decrease Band -1 for Size 2 or less. 
   
   
   
   
  The Diameter Rules 
  1000 D Maneuver Drives will not operate beyond this limit. 
   100 D Jump Drives will not operate within this limit. 
   
  10 D Gravitic Drives will not operate beyond this limit. 
   
  1 D Lifters will not operate beyond this limit.
