Thanks for the detailed info!! 8) For those in the know: Does the material of the book seem to be derived from RL East Asian culture/history/archaeology, or purely made-up fanciful stuff? I've been studying ancient China for the past 8-9 years and wonder if this supplement is based more on...

What it all boils down to is the solidity of the ruleset. If the product is all glitz and glamour, a glossy, technicolour, orgiastic riot of graphics but a badly conceived and ill-tested system, then all the window-dressing in the world is not going to save it. I like a little sprinkling of...

I've got a guy named Mr. Sulu. :lol: Seriously, I imagine variously-coloured, glowing push-buttons. Simple, effective, elegant. In my CT campaign modelled on classic-era SciFi (1920's through 1950's), I've got old rocket-ships, tail-landing vessels with buttons, knobs, dials, needle...

How's the binding? Are the pages in signatures or all stuck onto a layer of glue? Are the covers curled or bent? (I ask this 'cause some of the earlier Conan RPG books had covers curled inwards.) Thanks. ;)

I'd much rather have steel without and booze within, but that's the way I roll! :D

a d66 roll?!?! :shock: That's a new one to me! :lol: You could just as easily roll d% and disregard 67+ :wink: (Or have a matrix with 2d6 and 2d6 with 121 cells to map). Q: Compatability with Classic?

Hmm. I failed to notice that thread! :D :wink: Very nice!

What's wrong with using a high-tech 3"x5" card??? :D *tip-toes off to make a 3x5 character sheet...* :wink:

Now I can have a joke starting with "A Pygmy, a Saami, and a Cimmerian walk into a tavern..." :lol:

Ratner? RATNER? *slaps forehead* Ugh. :?

Har. Har. Har. :roll: Oh, BTW, open the pod bay doors! :wink:

Thanks. They must have changed it since yesterday. 8)

TFAW says the release date is in DEC! :shock: I hope it's still slated for Nov.

I'm totally new to TRAVELLER too. If you're interested you can get the CD-ROM of all Classic Traveller books for 35 USD from farfuture, which is a steal for what you're getting on the disk! This way I can use whatever setting books or modules I like, and it shouldn't be too hard to adapt to...

I couldn't say it any better. Big CT fan, too. 8) I wish they'd put out a good Conan flick. Now, THAT will cause a serious spike in interest for the RPG, and perhaps RPG's in general. However, in this (sad) day and age, most of the attention will be hogged by that flashy tramp Video Games. :x
