The PCs in my campaign hate Wrax, and the feeling is mutual. Not sure at this point how his help would have put the PCs in a better position. But who knows.... maybe if they made nice from the get-go, he could have been less resentful that they have the best warship Drinax has seen in ages...

My comment that started this discussion was no criticism of the illustration. It’s great art. In my head as I wrote it, the ship’s captain was yelling this at the gunnery officer. Or maybe the gunnery officer yelling at the gunners. Definitely not criticizing the illustration.! I like it and...

Why aren't those barbettes engaging the enemy?!?!?!

I’m about to start a short micro-campaign with some new players. I got to thinking, many games like D&D have house rules for char gen, like roll 4d6 keep beat, etc What do you do for Traveller? I’m thinking of having the players roll 7x 2d6 and keep the best for their stats, and allowing one...

*** spoilers ahead *** The players had spread enough false rumors that Tanith was the Pirate planet. The Naval PCs were on the way there to investigate when their misjump happened. Before Krond knew they were missing, the pirate PCs enacted their master plan. They had captured Eridani and her...

Just finished that arc a month or two ago. My players in the pirate characters prevented both Theev and Drinax from being pummeled by the Imperium as the Pirate Planet, and solidified their place and the #1 pirate gang in the Reaches, after freeing a lot of pirates, even some of the big names...

Very intruguing. I look forward to seeing the rest of the trilogy. If the PCs in my drinax campaign ever make it out that way, I may just see if this can be worked in.

Thanks for posting. I haven't had a chance to read it in depth, but from what I skimmed, it looks great. I hope you'll publish the rest of the trilogy as well!

Anything new on the 2D Deckplans from the Drinax books?

I have the mindjammer Traveller book and I do like it. Well before I saw it, I had been toying with an idea similar to the mindscaoe and similar tech in my Traveller 3I campaign. That said, I haven't had the chance to really work anything out, but I'd like to hear anyone's ideas as well.

This is interesting. My players have already meddled in Cordan, assassinating one of Lux's opponents in one of the least subtle and messy ways possible. They decided to bug out and finish the job later. I wonder if this will work for the 2nd half of the job, or is my in-game reality too far...

Yeah, where can we get the errata? I'm not seeing one listed for either the CRB or a high Guard on the Mongoose product pages with other downloads....

Nothing that's been published so far that I know of. I don't know if there is anything in the works. Sounds like fun thing your characters have gotten themselves into. I'd like to hear how it turns out.

Two things. In term 4, you still get a skill roll even though you had a mishap. (Technically the skill roll comes before the survival roll) Also, if I'm remembering correctly (away from books right now...) you would need to do an aging roll after the 4th term.

The Campaign proper did not change much at all between versions, so yeah, the Torpol Cluster supplement mentions this defense system but the campaign does not. I have not noticed yet any major issues with the other products, but I started the Drinax Campaign with my group long before 2nd...
