There is already a huge amount of interaction the moment you want to get past the basic level of PA play.
Effective attacks (access to targets and wingmates who overwhelm defence) & effective defence. Being able to scan distwhores.
I like the idea of greater galaxy interaction but I don't think this solution will lead to the best outcome for new players; it'll simply be a source of more scans for the experienced ones.
I really like the concept of starting out with a simply jgp/unit scan, however.
This approach allows new players to try the game. A proportion of them will find out that it's fun and worth signing up to IRC and logging in. A round or two later, we may find we've got a bunch of extra players we wouldn't otherwise have done.
