One thing that struck me is that we need one or both of: Striker III - a miniatures war game ruleset for the Fifth frontier war. Currently, I'm dusting off Striker I, printed out one of Ben's 1:270 broadsword cruisers, 2 matching modular cutters and have 6mm minis and vehicles from GZG to...

Great news, Ben, looking forward to this.

Is the PDF of the Referee's Screen on your to-do list? Would very much appreciate an update off that too.

To understand what this book is, what it's for, you should look to the original version of this type of book in Traveller: https://www.rpg.net/reviews/archive/14/14360.phtml J

Thanks Shannon, I can't wait to get my hands on the printed version. I've enjoyed this book so much – it's given me a deeper understanding of the game, how it was produced, why it took the directions it did in various periods and I have found the whole story deeply fascinating. Thank you. J

Megatraveller actually has a rule for this in the Task system: Tech codes were useful groupings of tech levels into eras - early Stellar, Average Stellar etc. There was a lot of griping about the Mega Traveller/DGP task system, but I actually think it was the most elegant and comprehensive version.

Thanks so much, Matt and team! J

Looking at two files (FFW and Free Trader Beowulf) the fix did work. J

Can confirm all images showing correctly now in Preview on OSX – Looks great! J

In my copy of FFW (viewed in Preview on my Mac) there were images missing on pages 124 and 184 – I just redownloaded the book and both images are now showing correctly. I'll have a look at This is Free Trader Beowulf when it's released tomorrow. Thanks for resolving this.

You keep saying this, but as has been pointed out to you in this thread, all that is required is for Mongoose to stop using JPG 2000 files with a CMYK colour profile in their books. This can be checked on an iPhone or iPad, very common phones and tablets. It's not that hard. What is your animus...

Going to start a new post for further errata and typos found after Shannon's latest update - thanks so much Shannon for such a great book, I am engrossed in it, and thanks for being so responsive here to the feedback. Page 171: change issued to issue change adverting to advertising Page 174...

Also reposting from another thread: Page 26: Shannon refers to the Irish Science Fiction Writer E. C. Tubb when explaining the British spelling of Traveller. Wasn't Tubb English? Born and died in London, though there may be some Irish connection I'm not aware of? Page 66: Should that be 'AFV...

Page 66: Should that be 'AFV Association'? J
