[Space] Making a solar system with 3 (semi-) habitable planets?

[dataweaver]

Also, the article in question doesn't say what effects the star's mass has on this: would a fairly large star push the "brown dwarf desert" outward, and by how much? Assuming that the size of the desert is proportional to the primary's mass, can the goldilocks zone catch up with the edge of the brown dwarf desert before the star is too big to be a reasonable candidate for a habitable system?

EDIT: I just ran some numbers, and sadly the answer is no. The only way you're going to have habitable brown dwarf trojan worlds is if the brown dwarf is one of those rare exceptions that exists within the brown dwarf desert. And even then, if we assume that the only way for the exceptions to get there is for a brown dwarf to migrate inward, Flyndaran's point about shaking out any habitable satellites would certainly apply to planets at the trojan points. *grumble*

Oh well. Flyndaran's right about another thing: I'm willing to do a bit of handwavery. Our understanding of system formation is still shaky, so it's possible that we're wrong about why the rare exception exists within the brown dwarf desert; it might have managed to form there in defiance of our current prevailing theory. Stranger discoveries have been made…
