Makes sense, but I think you have to make the roll at the end of each study period, to see if it worked or if the study period was wasted? If so, then tbh marking it e.g. 6/16 to me would lead to forgetting to make those end-of-study-period checks. My group's just getting me to track their/the...

They are nice... but as I'm trying to basically make a 2e version of the one in the 1e Supplement, I'm going to try to avoid anything that's not there. The only modification that the ship has is that it has a J3 drive and a turret. I'm likely to make two builds though - a literal adaptation of...

It makes sense that small ships wouldn't have an automatic airlock, being under 100 tons. It was the "part thereof" of the description that implied they should have one. Simply stating "one airlock per 100 tons" (no part thereof) would clarify that. Doesn't apply to me since I won't be creating...

Two related quick questions... It says on p22 that a ship may have one airlock per 100 tons (or part thereof), and additional airlocks may be added using the system in the spacecraft options. By my reading this means that a 200 ton ship would naturally have 1-2 airlocks for free, and...

Awesome! Thanks.

If the PDFs weren't secured I would create so many nested bookmarks - for Jayne's Guide, for the optional systems... the main benefit of PDF is quick lookup... and without the lookups it's actually slower than flipping through a book. So Thirded. If that's even a word. lol.

Awesome! Look forward to those. Thanks!

Accept that there has to be a limit, but there's a heck of a difference between 1 power per 2 tons and 1 per 200 (making it about what I'd expect). Most of the additional systems seem to take 1-2 power, but this taking 100 for a low 200 tonner? It makes no sense to me that a ship firing a...

Possible errata? The Holographic Hull states it uses 1 Power for every 2 tons of hull. Seriously? That means even a small 200 ton ship would be using 100 Power to have a holograph on the hull... as that uses more power than the basic system and Jump drive put together? Surely that's gotta be...

That'd be awesome. with Traveller 1e we did a Reign of Discordia campaign (it was discovery of that book that got me into Traveller) but now we've switched to Third Imperium. Having not done it before, and lacking much knowledge of the 3rd Imperium setting, my players and I picked the Solomani...

Any plans to do books like this for other regions like the Solomani Rim? Thankx

Tbh considering the purpose of getting an old ship is to save mortgage money, I wouldn't be keen on having quirks being balanced on granting benefits an drawbacks - they should be overwhelmingly on the negative side as you're already getting a more expensive ship for a lesser price. This said...

Hi everyone One of my players is playing an imperial-raised Aslan with a Prehensile Tail augment from the Aslan book. This is rather brief in description and only really says that it can be used as a third limb, and gives an extra minor action per combat round if it can be done with the tail...

No matter how good their astrogation and engineering skill DMs may be! :lol:

Ditto :mrgreen: - I usually make an excel/word character sheet with automated lookups and calculators (very very handy for d20 system!) and then we "print to PDF" for universal application/ease. Love Excel! hehe
