I'm sorry but I find this rather hysterical. It may have been years since I last visited this forum; and when I finally return, I'm bombarded with some of the most intricately bizarre questions I've ever seen. Am I in the right place? :D

Whatever happened to "Project Steel"? Was it ever published as a PDF? Sorry, my search-fu is horrible right now. Something tells me in the back of my head that it was renamed, or brought in to some other collection of adventures . . . but I'm not sure.

Good heavens . . . what a monstrosity. :D Too funny. As long as we’re at it . . . what about those blue circles at locations 131 and 132? Swimming pools? Public baths? The lair of a dragon turtle or aquatic elves?

Fantastic! I've been eyeing your Cascadia and Hub books for some time now. However, I'm a bit . . . confused about your pricing. The Cascadia Subsector and Adventure bundle is $29.47. But if I buy the books separately, the total comes up to $26.21. Is that right? I mean, hey, you can...

Holy Cow!!! :shock: Sign me up! :D

I read an idea somewhere in internet-land that the Octagon Society who built the octagons was really a secret organization that did discoveries and/or research on Ancient sites. Twilight's Peak was one such location. I suppose we could elaborate on that. The Society only got as far as the...

Was it because of this? I never tried, but often wondered, if the Annic Nova could make a profit as the cargo ship it was intended. Free fuel is cool and all that but . . . the time consumption! Not only do you have to wait for recharge, you have to wait for in-system travel as well since...

So, I take it you haven't looked at Beltstrike yet (or wasn't impressed)? Excellent adventure/campaign, IMOHO.

So then on a similar note . . . A character mustering out with a weapon could basically start the campaign with an FGMP-15 . . . per the core rules. (with apologies if this has already been hashed out) Yeah, I know. A barbarian mustering out with such a weapon is rather ridiculous . . ...

Alas, it looks like it may finally come. But a different author? Interesting . . .

Hi gang, How does encumbrance work with armor? Take the HEV Vacc Suit (TL 8) which has a mass of 36kg. Even the strongest of humans (15 str + 15 end) would fall short with a total of 30 and be considered lightly encumbered (according to the encumbrance rules on pg. 104). Consequently, that...

Hi gang, Since characters can move 6 meters a turn for a minor action, and still make an attack for their significant action in the same turn, are the weapon ranges for melee and natural attacks really all that necessary since both ranges are within 6 meters? The only potential, one moment in...

Then don't assume it. ;) When you think about it, most RPGs take place on one world. Since Traveller opens up many worlds, it's tempting to think that story-lines must transcend several worlds. Maybe you should start a story that sticks to one world? Having read Twilight's Peak and the...

Well, thank goodness. :) This crazy thread is a year old now and I was beginning to wonder if I'd have to wait another year.

Hi y'all, Does anyone remember the rumor tables from CT? I'm curious as to why Mongoose left them out. Does anyone out there miss them? If so, have you implemented your own version (which shouldn't be too hard to do)? Are you glad they're gone? Were they a waste of paper? Was it a system...
