I saw the TOC on Drivethru. It looks great. I like the artist for the book, too. I can't wait for the printed book.

Space Viking has all the Traveller things.

I don't share PDFs. So the watermark is perfectly fine.

I use those rolls in an app. Forgot what they really do IRL. Ha!

Looking forward to A System History of Traveller! I liked Shannon's other book on Traveller.

If players did Solomani chargens, they'd have a better understanding of their culture. Same goes for the other races.

See Darth Vader.

That is the "punk" part of the setting.

With 11,000+ systems, there's bound to be a cyberculture somewhere. It will look different from CyberPunk 2077 because it derives from Traveller 1977's alternate future. That's an interesting topic for a video I'll do.

Smart phones can break mystery games. Electricity also. Referees need to roll with it all.

I use Mongoose Traveller as a generic game mechanic for any genre. Just swap out careers and life events to match a game's setting. Mongoose Traveller does most things already using just the drifter career and various tech levels.

Star Trek and Star Wars did not invent sci-fi. Psionics was around long before them. Referees and players not comfortable with PSI characteristics in Traveller block them from use.

I've heard that 3030 Deathwar: A Space Odyssey pushes a lot of Traveller buttons.

The players roleplay in-character the encounter. A skill check roll based on narration from the players' actions is best practice.
