Awesome, well worth waiting for, thanks Matt! I already know that I'll be flicking straight to the 'Ship Walkthrough'. That sounds like my kind of content ;)

That's one of the beautiful things about Traveller, you can adapt the rules to your own style and that of your players. I can see the thought that's gone into Geir's rules and if that works for all concerned then great, crack on and glad you're enjoying Traveller :) Personally, my own players...

I agree. It's just my opinion, but I much prefer to follow the core rulebook where it states that "most actions undertaken by Travellers do not require a skill check" and "Often, if the Travellers have the requisite skills the referee can just assume they succeed". It makes sense to me to...

lol, it's fine, I play Star Citizen, I'm used to delays of several years! Thanks for the heads-up, regardless :)

Matt, you're an absolute legend, thank you!

Yeah, happy days! The operator's manual is one I've been waiting for since it was first announced. I wonder if Matt is feeling generous and might give us a sneak peek of some artwork for this one. It's nearly here though so I'm just being a bit greedy for more of that top-notch artwork that...

I think what I'm struggling with is what comes across as a "Tough, get used to it" message, especially when I watch the One D&D broadcasts where Jeremy Crawford has been constantly reaching out to the players to test the new material and asking for feedback to shape the next version. They've...

It's not quite the same situation, but it kind of reminds me when D&D 4e came out and threw away a lot of what made D&D, D&D. It's probably the most disliked and least played edition but fortunately they realised they'd fluffed it and 5e more than saved the day. Change can be a good thing or a...

To be fair, I played the game back when it came out so it's not really my dad's, god rest his soul. He never did get why we played these games.

I Hi Alex, associating Traveller with all those things from 1977 is a shade unfair. Star Wars came out around then too, but you wouldn't associate that with the things on your list, would you? Personally, I'll take 1977 over a lot of what we have in all aspects of life today, but neither is...

Do they trust us not to kill them? That's a valid question, methinks :unsure::ROFLMAO:

Might be fun to have Matt and the the Mongoose crew play and stream a 1-shot or 2-shot around the anniversary date? Maybe invite a guest or two like Seth Skorkowsky who was a lot of fun to watch on the Glass Cannon series? Just an idea :)

I'd probably wait until they're within maybe 1 jump before they become aware of the news. Or, they become aware of the news while several weeks out but the situation has changed when they get there, and that new situation is the actual adventure. Or, just be ready for them to do something...

I'd like to add my own Merry Xmas to all at Mongoose and to all you good folks on the forums as well. All the best for 2024 everyone :)

Let the players make a case for a skill which they think would be applicable to the situation. That ties it into their background and helps to further solidify that character's 'back story'. I'd be tempted to make the roll myself too, so that there is still an element of uncertainty, and also...
