A 15-odd-limit stellated Hexany. This creates a scale of 1 33/32 135/128 11/10 9/8 297/256 99/80 165/128 11/8 3/2 99/64 27/16 9/5 15/8 2/1, with steps of 33/32 45/44 704/675 45/44 33/32 16/15 25/24 16/15 12/11 33/32 12/11 16/15 25/24 16/15. This expands the base hexany out in a highly effective way, giving you 6 perfect fifths plus one imperfect one that is sharp by 100/99 and still in the diatonic range, while not adding any intervals that are too small to be melodically useful, although it does need rotating to find the most solidly rooted and consonant mode.
