    Combat Arm from CSC

    I like the internal task chain concept. Especially for when the arm is newly installed/attached. Learning the coordination takes a serious amount of time so slowing down to do Lefty Stronger Righty Weaker and doing each as a task chain simulates that with no additional modifiers.

    Traveller Release Schedule 2026

    PayPal does work for US hoarders buyers. However @Arkathan needs an individual gift card to work on the site, not a permanently linked card. I do think any Visa gift card should work on the site.

    New Traveller Referee? Some tips...

    That is what the Naval Adventure series is: https://www.mongoosepublishing.com/products/naval-adventure-1-shakedown-cruise?variant=42088751956215 Add in the Element Class Cruiser: Shipbuilder’s Blueprints Box Set (available on VTT also) and you can create a full Naval campaign.

    New Traveller Referee? Some tips...

    The only trick to this would be different Travellers having different number of terms. If the players all agree to a 4 term limit then that would be a nice start to a campaign. Grow together, work/adventure/work emerge at the end with a nice close knit group.

    Single System games

    I like this approach. Scientifically possible, leaves the existing details in place. Similar to the travel time in Cluster Truck. Over the course of a campaign those outer planets will not move significantly enough to affect game play.

    Am I allowed to post a list of Pilot Tasks on the forum?

    The best course would be to create an index that lists: Task Name Modifiers Page Reference to Mongoose material Note if it is not 2e

    Single System games

    Picking up the World Builders Handbook to create your own fully fleshed out system can turn into several different campaigns. Or take a look at The Borderland for examples of systems already done. Then just ignore the parts that conflict with how you want the traffic in your system to work...

    What real use are escape pods?

    I think the point of an escape pod is that it is a shirt sleeve environment. No Vacc Suit skill needed, no time needed, yank open a door jump in, close door, push the big red button.

    Traveller Release Schedule 2026

    How to make Traveller more popular with TTRPG players

    With all VTTs the choice is Time versus Money. Almost any of them can be used for Traveller. Fantasy Grounds gives you the option of doing it yourself or the GM just buying the work off the shelf. There is zero cost to players to join or play. As Endie said there are many people who only use...

    National Science Fiction Day - January 2nd

    Agreed that Hail Mary is an excellent book. The movie will come out in March, it looks to be a good representation of the source material. It even tempts me to go to a theater again.
