If you made PDF versions of the map packs - in colour but with a plain white background and black hex grid, or with a very light grey layer of starscape as an option behind the hexes to provide background I'd buy all of them in an instant.

PDFs with black backgrounds, not so much.

I'd like to see a sample of the deckplans - no objection to having 'sample' or whatever plastered all over them - because that is what I will base any buying decision on ultimately, at least in part, for any ship or station or location type PDF. If the deckplans suck I really in the end probably don...

A Jump Gate is a jump drive that jumps external objects outside itself to specific locations. The regular jump drive is limited by two things, there is no Jump Drive greater than Jump 6, and even if there were, the rule is, you need 10% of the displacement mass of the ship in jump fuel in order to ...

Sounds like there is a distributor out there who is still telling stores/online stores they are going to be handling this item when available - hence it being available to preorder. Most likely they just didn't read or act upon the update when Mongoose told them otherwise - presuming Mongoose did te...

At the speed ADB and Mongoose are progressing on Traveller Prime Directive we are more likely to see the actual invention of Warp Travel before we see release of any actual book.

Is anybody (at 13Mann or Mongoose, or elsewhere?) actively promoting or hyping this up at all? Is there a promotional/marketing push planned to raise awareness and drive site visits, likes, and pledges? I ask as the only mention of this campaign I've seen anywhere is in this thread (which isn't even...

Any news?

And I do also own T5 with no problem and admiration for what it brings to Traveller. Each to their own I guess. This doesn't alter the fact that some people seem to think, for some reason, that eveything with the Traveller name on it, or created/backed/endorsed by Marc must be backed and supported ...

Amateurish. Crap.

+1. Kill it. Kill it now. With nukes. From orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

Still on schedule for end of June'ish?

@ Jean and @MSprange
So it's in the works - but realistically, given it has been for two years or so now and all the delays and false starts so far, is this now a month away? three months? six months? a year? a bit longer? or is it just vapourware at this point?

sideranautae wrote:Also, where are all the crashed ships?

Good question. Sounds like a good adventure seed.

What on earth kind of digital copy protection/secuirty have you installed on these PDFs? Have you seriously set them up so I can't copy between devices and memory sticks at will? Update - nevermind. Several reboots and application of various Windows/Acrobat/Update fixes later things now seem to work...

msprange wrote:Sorry, but we have been very busy on other projects!

Matt - wasn't intending to harass; just keen to understand when/if we might see another episode as the two statements 'just received it' and 'had it since October but too busy' are rather contradictory.

msprange wrote:Not at all, we have just had the next part come in, and we are talking to the author about more!

@Matt
According to your last few posts prior to today you've had the next episode since mid October - but it hasn't been worked on or published?

Is this campaign dead now?

@msprange Is there any sort of an ETA? I'm not going to hold you to it but would really like to know (just to help manage my expectattions if nothing else) if this is days, or weeks, or months, or 'you're having a laugh - you have no idea how much other stuff we have to do first!' away in terms of p...

Are we likely to see this by Christmas?

How about you ban F33D for his persistent rudeness and trolling? You must have had a ton of complaints about him by now.

+1. Or just at least try and moderate the forums maybe just a little bit once in a while.

Any news?
