Well, to run character creation you'd need to spend dozens to hundreds of hours typing in all the character creation tables, and a few hundred more hours typing in the equipment tables and spaceships and.. whatever else, then you'd need to extract map images from Death Station pdf, upload that...

To get more people to play you have to meet them where they are. Many people play RPGs in person, and many people play RPGs online. People who play online tend to be tied to a single VTT - because it takes effort, and sometimes cost, to stay on top of them. Traveller is fine for face-to-face...

Yeah, I appreciate that they have to print in quantity and they want to sell the physical books, so I don't mind a premium charge for a digital-only copy. I just don't want more books.

Am I correct in believing that there is no way to pledge for "everything" in digital-only format? I'd love to pledge for a complete digital copy because I don't want the environmental impact of physical books that I'll never open.

I'm a big fan of the magazine and I'm really grateful for everything you do. That said, reading through this issue, I found the review of 21 Plots: Planetside to be pretty unpleasant to read as it is unduly bitter, snide, and nasty. Your magazine would be better without this sort of content.

I sort them by prefixing the file-name with the product-code which is a pretty bad way to do it. Sometimes it clusters books together into useful clusters and sometimes it doesn't. The only thing it has going for it is that it would be a lot of work to fix it so I've stopped worrying about it...

Curses we just missed them by... <<struggles to perform mental arithmetic>>... 15 years.

All these item types seem to be available, but you need to type all the data in by hand.

I am trying very hard to forget Visicalc. The trauma is still fresh.

I'd assumed it was "official" in some sense because it was under the Mongoose-Publishing github repo but... yeah, I think you're right. Shame, I was more than willing to throw money at Mongoose for content packs. They've marked the module as having V11 as the upper bounds of compatibility so I...

Back in the 80s, teen me got to talk with Paul Darrow at a theatre after-party. He was incredibly kind and gracious, giving me 30 minutes of his time when he had no reason to other than I was a B7 fan and that I obviously felt a bit uncomfortable and out of place at the party. Gem of a human being.

Which is a modest 25% increase per dimension of the 'human cube'

I noticed that, today, an official Mongoose Traveller for Foundry went live: https://github.com/Mongoose-Publishing/traveller-foundryvtt Thank you!

Hey gang. Is there anything that is inconsistent between LBB9: Library Data and the current timeline? My players are sneaky, so if I just hand them the Library Data that comes with some adventures, they'll read through it to try to game the game. I'd like to bury the information they need in...

One of the things that comes up regularly is that Traveller isn't a game about combat. People say you should only engage in combat if you really have to, that you should expect to get messed up unless you're really prepared. People also bring up that this isn't a game about dungeon-romps where...
