Can they be used to travel to another system or is it expressly between planets of the same system?

Which is a shame, but I can understand why. Way too much of a tactical advantage

I have always wondered what would happen if the Vasari Loyalist titan would spawn a Phase Stabilizer on a star. Gamecrash? Wonder if anyone tried it yet...

I also think this makes it harder to balance. The Vasari have a huge advantage on big single-star systems, but they're at a disadvantage in multi-star systems (since they're less able to quickly build new fleets in the required system than the other races).

As far as I know the VL Titan can't spawn a phase node on a star, the game simply won't let you.

Well, we could test this by modding the ability and the buffs to see what would happen.

 I guess that depends. To use an old example, the Vasari Starbase. I know that you cannot stabilise a Phase lane to a starbase on a star, so I'd imagine it would be the same case with the Titan, but I haven't tested that.
