    [Traveller Battlefield Dev] New Combat Rules to Try!

    I am not a fan of adding complications to the Traveller rules. One of the things I love is that even with thousands of pages of material. The game can realistically be played with about 4 pages of rules. See Cepheus Quantum. It seems like the purpose of 2nd edition was to simplify the game over...

    [Traveller Battlefield Dev] New Combat Rules to Try!

    Then why apply any of the effect to damage if you have a choice?

    [Traveller Battlefield Dev] New Combat Rules to Try!

    I will have some more observations later, If I use the effect as an add to AP vs damage, how is it different than just adding it to the damage roll? Maybe I am not seeing it. say I roll 8 points of damage and I have 4 points of effect. It would be 12 points of damage. Say the target has 8...

    Quick question on "Zombies"

    The whole fun to me of the Zombie is that it is created from a sentient sophont.

    Small scale musings

    I find I can generate a usable skeleton for a short adventure by entering the results from the encounter tables. I do upload the books so it can reference the rules. While not perfect I can modify it to work as a small adventure.

    The Core Expeditions - on PDF and Pre-Order!

    The effects are shown in MM's novel Agent of the Imperium. If I remember right, there is technically a cure mentioned.

    Number of staff in Commercial Zones on Space Stations

    Yeah, I like the reduced service for at least part of the day. It works better for me. Maybe a busy Type A on a hub would be like Vegas that never closes.

    Number of staff in Commercial Zones on Space Stations

    I can see a combination of vending, robot, and sophont.

    Number of staff in Commercial Zones on Space Stations

    Do the stores and area run 24/7? Then you would need 2 to 3 shifts or more, for 7-day operation.

    Ask MongooseMatt ANYTHING!!!

    I hate to be a broken record. How is the Demiplane implementation coming along?

    Mercenary Field Catalogue

    Trying to make the existing weapons match a weapon building system is going to be tough since they were built without a system. When they did make a system people complained because the weapons didn't perform the same.

    Rapid Deployment Sensor Arrays

    I change my position. It seems pretty explicit now that I have fully read the rule.

    Rapid Deployment Sensor Arrays

    I think RAI, and order of operations favor Mavikfelna, and is probably how I would run it. It feels like an abuse of a grey area, which is easy to do in Mongoose Traveller.

    Space Combat - Did I miss something?

    The heat would still need to go somewhere. My understanding is that even if you could fully insulate the ship 100% it would heat up and become unlivable in short order. Maybe at higher TL you could block or absorb the heat for a time, but it eventually has to be radiated away. FYI, I do ignore...
