Many of the AI markers especially in the middle hexes are not actually the result of an ever burgeoning database. They are in fact simply AI characters moving around the map. But they are all red you say? Yes, they are, but they are not Klingon AI markers, they are Snickers Mining Inc. (Rogue Pirate) AI characters being generated from the base in the centre hex. They are a lighter red in colour compared with Klingon AI markers, but could be difficult to distinguish on some monitors.
