Do what we did. Colonise Mars with STL ships. One PC spent eighteen months
on the security detail going out, and opted to ride back in deep-freeze
rather than stay (for long and complex reasons). Others have been kept
busy dealing with sub-plots and conflicts regarding space and scheduling
for the various corporations' efforts... the auction has been sabotaged
twice now. Handled properly there's a lot of potential, without too much
game disruption.

And no, Lynch didn't find any million-year-old machinery hidden in the
Pyramid Mine :)
