So it appears. I'm sure they'll fix it for the final. The wording of the sentence, "For the sake of simplicity, the referee may simply determine the distance to the jump point and then double the escaping ship’s speed toward that point each round" is also faulty. It should say something to the effe...

We will indeed be including a giant poster map of both sectors with the book!

Just great !

There is written :

"The first method uses the following equation:"

No equation after, but one above...maybe misplaced or a missing one ?

Hi Matthew,

Will there be a poster map of the Spinward Marches coming with the book ? Would be great.

My old one is somewhere...but where ?

Thanks
JNJ

There is a HUGE amount of new stuff :) Absolutely every word of the original has been checked, re-checked and, if necessary, revised. Deneb has been pretty much completely re-written, and there is a bulk hauler's worth of new material in the book. I mean, a lot. Just the new playable alien races al...

Aiming for the end of this month - previews are imminent!

Hi Matthew,

Will it be mostly a reprint of "the Spinward Marches" published in 2008 or will there be...a lot..of new content ?

Thanks,

Hi, Does anybody know if I can find characteristics for a laser torch somewhere ? (any traveller edition, I can convert stats to Mgt2) Otherwise I will create one. Just GMing Death Station and urgently needing one ! ;-) Thanks. JNJ Just found it in the Mgt Central Supply Catalog : Laser Cutting Gea...

I read Chris Jackson's "A Warrior's Soul" and really enjoyed it. It takes place on a world that happens to be a key spot in the Drinax campaign, which made the story very relatable. Well written and fun. I've also read Martin Dougherty's "The Dimenos Problem," which was also great. Looking forward ...

Anybody had time to read one of the 4 new traveller short stories already published by Mongoose and would be kind enough to provide some feedback or (short) review ? Writing and intrique quality ? very connected or not to Traveller universe ? Learned new things about the Traveller setting ? Provides...

Can someone please design me A 600 ton Wyvern to use in Pirates of Drinax?. I'm very out of practise at doing ships that small. Please and thank you If you want to develop your ship designer skill : read the rules, try to create one, ask questions if any. Then you will have practice and won't ask o...

Thanks to all and especially to AnotherDilbert for his detailed spreadsheet explanation...much clearer to me now ! Double occupancy is indeed indicated in HG page 21 but due to the discomfort seems mainly used for crews : "Double Occupancy Some ships have bunks in their staterooms rather than single...

As far as I can tell the inclusion of the DMs for varying TLs in MgT2 only applies to Freight availability, not Buyer availability, as in MgT1. And this may be an indication that the Mgt1 DM's were not meant to apply in both directions. However, I personally think it makes sense that they would app...

Hi, I am eagerly waiting for a more detailed version of trade rules for Mgt 2, meanwhile I try to use the Mgt1st edition rules. On the freight trafic table is specified "Additionnally there is a -1 modifier per TL difference between Two worlds". Does it apply both ways or 1 way only ? : If current w...

High Guard's ship tables are chock full of errors. Did someone made an errata for those somewhere ? Could be useful. Thanks JNJ They are corrected, but there hasn't been an errata. Thanks Andrew. I just downloaded latest PDF version of High Guard from Drivethru but it seems to still have the same s...

The only thing that annoys me in escape round, if I understand it well, is that if the vargr moves then fires in the same round, you must "go back in time" and cancel his fire result if the traveller incapacitates him in his next round. Yes, it can retcon the combat a bit. I would not bother rewind...

Maybe it doesn't need mentioning, but don't forget penalties for firing at a moving target. Additionally, depending on the distance from one crate to another, there may also be a bane for firing through a constrained space.

Fully agreed, thanks bklokis

Thanks MonkeyX. I think I will adopt it like this...and probably have to try it this weekend !

Great ideas, thanks AnotherDilbert.
