random amount, position and orientation should be not that problem, its easy 
to administrate by the server. Of course there should some "no go" areas for 
astros the between the gates.
Randomizing the shape of the asteroid is a litte bit more complicated, so we 
have to define a couple of "randomization parameters" and sophisticated rules 
to calculate the shape. 
The server generates a small pack of that parameters (maybee: size of semi 
axis, some lokal concave/convex points etc.)  and the client calculates the 
shape.

I like this idea to fill some larger asteroids fields with some trivia.  
Anyway, the static major asteriods, the eye catcher, still should hand made.
