I, too, bought the black box in the late 70s. I enjoyed creating sub-sectors and characters. I understood that world/sector generation was the way to create the sandbox for actual play. I recall the heady way in which the slow unfolding of worlds and societies created that sandbox and I looked forward to seeing the adventures unfold as player's directed their characters through that world.

I started to knee-jerk apologize for misreading/misunderstanding. Changed my mind. Does the week link drag down or does the strongest lift up?

The lowest POW+INT would probably be better. Weakest link and all.
