If you know something. You can prove something. Any law enforcement professional worth his badge (or warrant card, or laser badge) would present what he knows to his team, work to prove it in a correct and legal manner. Especially if it means they weren't actually pointed at the killer. If he's a cr...

One of my players have one in my current game. With regards to the armor, I just give them the full amount in melee (where they have a solid bit of control over what is going where), and roll a d6 for ranged. 1, it hits that arm, armor counts. Anything else, it's landing somewhere else, can't help y...

Well, mostly on topic. Highguard does have rules for Livestock. Stables are done in 10t lots. With one "Stable" able to fit 20 "Human" sized or 10 Cattle Sized creatures. With associated life support costs. Obviously for shipping live animals (For whatever story or semi-science reasons required, not...

Not to mention the fact that (as per usual) your scale is just...too large. For a Marine based military campaign you would likely not want to run anything bigger than a Platoon for your PC's (and even then, it's a lot of bodies to manage) take a look at High Guard: Deployment Shuttle...count the bod...

No. I believe it's already been stated. But first point, you can't make a Pirates of Drinax computer game (Without licenses, collaboration, talent, etc.) Even as a purely hypothetical exercise it's meaningless, you don't know who the fourth in command of the Starguard is. You don't have detailed com...

GeDeCo doesn't own Sperle. They are the majority economic controllers, but they can't "sell" the planet. Sperle produces chemicals from the "whales" not food. (Though I suppose the planet would make a better breadbasket than Drinax. But not as good as Asim) The "whales" on Sperle aren't whales, they...

How do you know its definitely female, I thought the name Sal could be male in some cultures and female in some cultures

The write up in Trojan Reach says so. (Though if you wanted to change it, no harm, no foul I suppose)

She has a little write up in the NPC section in the Drinax section at the start of the Trojan Reach book. She's essentially an NPC Traveller. Smuggler, free trader, information/commodity broker. She has her own Far Trader IMC, and I've used her to deliver messages a few times further out from Drinax...

The first adventure in the actual Drinax book, Honour Among Thieves, does suggest very strongly that the Imperium has at least some concrete information about the workings of Theev (From one source at least) IMC there are elements of the Imperium who know exactly what Theev is, but they keep it pret...

I would carefully cross out everything on that page.

And then start again.

Best way to handle it.

I take a starship at 0 hull as not destroyed, but non-functional. So many hull breaches, power conduits/cables cut, systems with critical damage, that it no longer works as a spaceship. As a rough guide I tend to figure that another half it's maximum hull points in damage (once it reaches zero) will...

Sunday evening GMT will put Australians (Or people around us) at a bit of a disadvantage to jump in, early Monday morning and all.

So put my vote in for Saturday, probably still be early, but you can't get everything

Haven't got them down under yet, either. I think it's just European countries.

Mine turned up in NSW yesterday in great nick (And full of terrible things for me to do to people)

So I don't reckon they'll be long for anyone.

Mine run the Captain at five shares. But he refuels the ship, does monthly maintenance, and pays the NPC crew salaries out of his shares. (They obviously get their own shares as well, but separately) The other players have thrown in for upgrades and Harrier repairs, but the day to day is on him, and...

Yeah. I might give my group the chance to take potshots from the dark out at long ranges with only a bonus to the victims sensor rolls. I do have them automatically detected when they come up to Medium...or Short range then open fire though (Unless they can come up with some reasonable way to convin...

The ship needs upgrades for its weapons right away. That was the verdict from my players. particle barbette is awesome for inflicting crew hits and doing some nasty damage from beyond range of most opponents. The players also had TL 14 missiles so their missile attack had a better sting. They added...

When someone writes a response to one of your weird, way too specific, numbers heavy, off the rails queries and your response is "More ideas. Please." Like we're a group of employees you have troubleshooting, instead of a collection of players and GM's who happen to like talking about Traveller you ...

I've been running since November...stalling, and sidelining my players, only run one adventure from the actual campaign book. Those physical books do make it that much easier.

I think Matt said somewhere that they might be in customs (coming into the UK) though. So fingers crossed for not too long.

*SPOILERS FOR PIRATES OF DRINAX* The problem I think Hakkonen tried to hit there is...that's getting up into the unmanageable areas of running Pirates of Drinax. As written. You can't just make an enlarged fleet for Ferrik in adventure one. Because he is a desperate man who managed to break away a t...

My mistake ;) I didn't actually look at it first. Luckily none of my players have ever tried to put specialised ammunition in a gauss weapon...yet. Though I do have one with a penchant for shooting AP rounds from a sniper rifle whenever he can sneak it out somewhere. On the price issue, I think that...
