OK, since it doesn't look like the warp missions will be server-stable in time for SGO7, I went through the conventional scripts - tweaking the maps, drafting, and ai-stripping.
The most server-friendly (IMO) scripts are here:http://www3.telus.net/NuclearWessels/sfc/downloads/EDPatrols.exe
The complete pack is here:http://www3.telus.net/NuclearWessels/sfc/downloads/NWPack.exe
The blurb below describes the current status of the missions in more detail, read only if you're really interested ;D
I've broken them up by their maximum drafting capabilities, and listed what the sides will be by default (i.e. if it's just you and the AI the sides may be different than if there are humans involved).
The missions coloured yellow are the ones I'd probably take as a core set for a server (just my opinion of course)
The following missions handle 3v3 drafting WITH AI stripping:
In Enemy Hexes:
- ED5FleetAction: default sides 3v3
- ED6Patrol: default sides 2v2v1 (pirate or convoy)

In Friendly Hexes:
- ED5PlayerFleet: default sides 3v2
- ED10Patrol: default sides 3v2v1 (pirate or convoy)

- ED10Monster: default sides 2v2v1 (note this monster mission DOES affect DV) does NOT strip the monster
