The low berths are too a branch of study which doesn't work on human scales. It's as old as academic study of psionics and part of why they both enter sci fi at the same time

What about cryogenics?

Thats what the scholar career represents. Or it what can represent, working toward a master, then doctorate. There may be some merit, in splitting doctor, and researching/engineer but the science skills, arent great really to invest to. They're plot exposition skills, and most gm will give the...

1) I love psionics. I greatly appreciate why its part of sci fi, though I understand why it doesnt feel like sci fi anymore. I find it an interesting foil to throw at players, in terms of other sophonts and animals. Though sometime for animals, it can get frustrating. Recently played through...

And you probably wouldnt use it laser comms to often. The thing that laser comms do is a point to point connection. Cant be intercepted or even detected. Though for everyday use you'd just use a radio of some frequency.

Yea, it is homebrew. Stream of conscience writing. Did it in like 90ish minuets. I dont recall, why I went with athletics over stat ups. The survival/adv was meant to be closer to drifter, but I didnt look them up when I was writing it. Overall, happy with the events for Mishaps and Events. I...

When Matt has been asked about this, his answer has been the Scholar career. That represents doctoral and post doc work.

In regard to computers in traveller. Something that I have notice is that concept of what a computer is in traveller and what a computer is now have diverge a lot. I don't think traveller computers need to change really. Traveller like most sci Fi, just totally underestimate the speed of...

Lasers need love. There is no love lost, for getting rid of the dam type and armor type lookup table. That will always be ass. But mechanically, lasers are terrible. The trouble is I dont know how to fix them without additional mechanics. Like giving them all Laser Sight attachment for...

M/R drive atomsphere speed table would be nifty. Sidebar on using cargo bay as a launch bay. This is a somewhat common question.

The entangled pair, is instantaneous. It cant transmit information. The action of half the pair, has no bearing on the other half of the bearing. You can even use it being disetanged as series of ones and zeros, because you cant check if its entangled with disentangling them.
