Admiral's Challenge is a strategic system designed to mimic games like Federation and Empire, but with Starfire.
You start with a hexboard (for example, one corner of the system map, or an interception hex if you have one) and you place stars. Then as you build ships they go on the map and you move, explore, etc. When ships move into hexes with enemy ships or populations then combat ensues.
It was designed for simplicity and short strategic turns. Its not a bad system if you like strategy games like that.
Marvin created it, so we'll probably have more information. Marvin?

Can supply be traced through a starless hex?

Yes, as long as you control the hex. If you haven't explored it, or if someone else controls it, you can't get supply through it.
