I think I may have to avail myself of this offer too. Chris

Thanks!

2300 requires 1Dton per turret as per Traveller "But" also requires you to have either TTA, a UTES or a Missile Director as fire control. A "Gun Tower" takes two hard points, a "Heavy Gun Tower" takes five hard points. So the way I treat this is that you fit a fire control, say a TTA which...

Do gun towers or heavy gun towers add and tonnage to a vessel other than that of the weapons mounted? I am aware they add to the ship's signature. I'm assuming not as I can't find anything, but want to be sure. Chris

Task Force Games (then they went to Harlequinn, now Black Tree Designs). There was some talk of an SFB Marines game IIRC quite a while ago, and they were part of the minis line for it. It never saw fruition then. I don't think they are available any more, but then, they weren't that good - the...

They kinda look like some marines from the last time the marine minis failed... (not that minis are promised AFAIK) I have a bunch of them from last time, but this time I'd actually like something different from the art, even if there were no miniatures. I'd rather see armour more 60s, maybe...

Definitely! I couldn't agree more. Chris

Agreed, but Mike West has already said that ship combat and stats are probable inclusions: It is going to be different from vanilla Traveller (and should be), but it seems to be taking the good bits to me. So world and ship design are not likely to be a part of it? No problem IMO, they are not...

Because SJG don't publish the GURPS:PD book, ADB do under license from Steve Jackson Games! It's also print on demand book. That is one of the reasons I think ADB pursued a relationship with Mongoose - if Mongoose publish the books/games they get carried by their distribution and can actually be...

D20 isn't, but GURPS (the latest version) is standalone. As I said it's an opinion, and it would make what is taken from the core rules and what isn't easier to manage. I'm not too worried if I'm wrong though, as I already have the core rules (and then some) :) Of course, Mongoose my well want...

Only the 1st edition PD was specifically Prime Team centred - in the newer Gurps and D20 versions you can be bridge crew etc... A little more open. If your players are uncooperative you are back in that 'capatin says to...' situation though :) ------ To the other comments in the thread: I...

Hurrah!

Perhaps the case contains data linking the exec to some funds embezzlement he was using to locate and get into an underground psionics organisation, with a view to getting himself some powers... Your players will now either be drooling or disgusted ;) Of course, the exec is a fantasist and...

Erm, yeah... Although this one is a newer version for sure ;) http://www.winnebagoind.com/products/winnebago/view/floorplans.php

Hi, I've been running a JD game on RPOL since August, at a post rate of around one post per player per day. There's always been room for an extra player, but one player has also left - leaving me with three. If anyone is interested, the game is here...
