    High Guard - On The Way

    For what its worth, this product is about 10 months overdue, has had plenty of input from potential customers during the playtest, and is a shoddy excuse for a game resource when the paying customer purchases an error riddled piece of crippleware instead of a well crafted and professionally...

    Lots of Dice and a little Cepheus Engine, too

    Constantine Thomas, is that really you? Considering that the game itself has been around since 1977, they may have just gotten it right the first time. Thirty-nine years is pretty damn good longevity for a RPG. Nattering nimrods of negativity like yourself are actually more of a threat to...

    Why use fighters?

    Has anyone in this discussion actually looked at how fighters are used in modern day navies? One of many uses of fighters is scouting. A fighter element (2 fighters) is sent out to range ahead of the ship, beyond its effective sensor range in order to detect enemies that lie beyond the ship's...

    Jump Shadowing/Masking

    You know, Neil Degrasse Tyson is not some kind of religious icon who is the source of all science, regardless of the weight you place upon his pronouncements. You also should not be an antagonistic whelp on forums. Having a lot of people place you on ignore does not help your own credibility...

    Jump Shadowing/Masking

    Guys? You do not have to concern yourself with gravitons as long as you view gravity as a measure of the curvature of space-time around a mass. You do not have to transmit anything as long as you take that into account. All that graviton crap belongs in the same trash heap as tachyons and...

    White Dwarf Traveller Articles

    White Dwarf had some great Classic Traveller articles during their run. What are the chances of those articles being reprinted or made available for Mongoose Traveller?

    A moment of silence, please.

    Don McKinney was a good man, his passing diminishes us all.

    Tachyon Anything

    Thank you for the patronizing response. I can now see why people have dropped out of the playtest if this is how concerns are addressed.

    The Martian

    Been done. "Wait It Out" by Larry Niven.

    Tachyon Anything

    You like to say this a lot. The problem with this view is that if the Referee is bigger than the setting or game, then why do they need the rules for the game? You seem to be arguing against having Traveller exist at all.

    Tachyon Anything

    None of those limitations are listed in the playtest. So, what is keeping you from using this blast of tachyons to send morse code to another site?
