    Travellers Needed! Central Supply Catalogue Updates

    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...

    Travellers Needed! Central Supply Catalogue Updates

    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...

    Travellers Needed! High Guard Updates

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

    FTL Communications?

    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.

    No, I don't think a meaningful number of in particular rpg artist says this.

    Traveller, TAS, and AI

    Its disingenuous to suggest that smaller time authors and publishers have to use AI to generate art because they cant afford an artist to make original work for them them. There is an innumerable amount of copyleft art, royalty free art for sale. There is innumerable amount of copyright free...

    (Developer's Diary) Computers in Dark Conspiracy

    Computer use is so important and ubiquitous, maybe it shouldnt be a skill, but a Stat. Computer Literacy stat. Ensure everyone has some Comp Lit. Using that implies the use of some sorta computer, with equipment modification. This isnt any more amorphous stat than Social is for Traveller.

    (Developer's Diary) Computers in Dark Conspiracy

    Hrm. What about something like the hunger mechanic from Vampire Masquerade v5. When you use your vampire powers, you have a push your luck mechanic, where you can grow more hungry and have to eat someone. Modern devices, can just bork, at the most inconvenient time. Its a common meme, that...

    Belters

    No. Nah. No. No one should want this. There is nothing of substance there. The community advocated for its removable in the 2022 refresh. It just took up page space, for nothing. It was 100 percent not worth engaging with. It didnt help make stories interesting, or make any stories. Its only...

    Gas Giant Mining

    Sure, but then its about expenses of mining it. What mineral is cheaper to mine from a gas giant, then from a space rock?

    Emergency Beacon Detection Range

    How can a life pod in use be unmanned? Or am I confusing a life pod with an escape pod?

    How to let players generate the characters they want without letting them min/max?

    This wouldnt make them above average. If you have 42 stat points, you have 7 in all stats. This lets you still have hills and valleys in stats, but prevents you just only have low stats.

    How to let players generate the characters they want without letting them min/max?

    I'm a fan of rerolling until you have at least 42 points for stats. And reroll until you do. Lifepath always remain random but with some system mastery, you're much better as massaging it to get the character you after even if it wasnt the character you actually wanted. Then you make it with...

    Help a Noob - bunch of rules questions (Update 2022 version)

    4.1 Besides the stipulated changes, space combat works the same as at distance space combat. Yea, this makes dog fighting more vicious then what combat already is. Yea, it means that if fighter can close the distance, then Capital ships are in for a bad time. Though in HG, which more expansive...
