    Rules Help: Privateer Game Player Options

    Each option includes funds for ship upgrades. Is the Beowulf too small to be a Q-ship or am I underestimating the costs?

    Rules Help: Privateer Game Player Options

    Hello, I'm working on starting a privateering based traveller game with a local gaming group. I've already gotten sign-on for the basic idea but want to give them a choice over what kind of contract they'll be signing on to. So far I've worked up these four options and want to make sure that...

    Using Books 1 - 10 in games

    I’m thinking of running a Traveller game either around privateering, free/wild trading and/or exploration (depending on player input), and I’m wondering what books I should allow in play for character generation and what if any house rules/caveats I should put on those books. I’m already...

    House Rules for a group that isn't used to life paths

    Drawing Deckplans

    I think that the price of energy is too inflated for the traveler universe. In my games I tend to treat the price of fuel as almost trivial. The costs come in ship maintenance and risk. Also IMTU ships last a long time. Hulls are built to last centuries, and engines ussually last at least 50...

    Request: Non-jump Ship Building Rules

    I would like to see the rules on building small vessels. To me some of the things seem out of whack. Take the modules for the modular cutter. The empty pressurized hull costs 0.1 Mcr, while the Fuel tanker costs 1 Mcr, however because the hull is streamlined it should already have fuel...
