The way things are the size of the size of front lines will mean they are never going to be stable there is to much territory for that to happen.
If you try and make home continents with only 3 no mater what way you work the links you end up with fighting localized at the neutral gates which is much smaller then the front lines you will get with a foot hold on each cont.
The second you encourage empires to lock continents you start to limit the territory people will fight over.
The only way I can see a lattice system working is to bring back the sanctuary's for regrouping (making them a space station could be more fun) and make all gates broadcast gates. That way any empire can pop up any where. From there you let it play out naturally. The empire's will form there own preferences and front lines.
