Yes (if trait is from a ship scale weapon). Yes just subtract the radiation countermeasure score from the radiation damage score. This is Radiation Shielding (TL7), High Guard pg 14. This is Radiation Damage on Large Ships, also on HG, pg 14. Slightly different rules are used where the crew...

Just found this Traveller FAQ via the Traveller RPG Discord: https://wiki.travellerrpg.com/Traveller:Frequently_Asked_Questions#Setting_questions I don't know how readable people find it, or whether it can be made more readable in anyway, bearing in mind the comments in this thread.

Both Space Shuttle and Apollo vessels have the cockpit at the front. Not that these are 'military' vessels. Water-based vessels have the problem of capsizing either at front/back or sides. So bridge being 'central' makes sense from the point of view of keeping the crew above water for as long...

Now you mentioned I think that is what I heard too.

I believe the site mods have placed restrictions for new members. Cannot remember what the exact "restrictions" are but they should be lifted after you make a few posts to show that you are human, or something like that

Yeah, I would take the average of the two arms, but that would be a lower STR than just doing an action one handed - so, you may as well be one-handed and get to use the full STR without any "handicap" from the normal arm. If you want, you could do it as a Task Chain, with the stronger arm...

"C.A."?

True. That is true of all life, hobbies, etc. When I fists started RPGing, there was a young persons group and an mature persons group. Not deliberately defined upon those lines , just happened to turn out that way. You wont encourage many participants, old or new, if you think along those...

Well ... no worries. If you wish to overgeneralise the kind of answers you are looking for, then I am not persuaded to explore the question with you. Doesn't exactly happen every week in the life of Jump Travel, does it? Yes, it could happen but the market will likely move on and want more...

What's the average population in 142 parsecs of chartered space? How big a market are you talking about? What are the resources on planet 'china'? Do they have enough resources to make 28,000 units of product every 24 weeks (assuming max speed of 6 parsecs of travel per week.) What happens if...

For a Minimum Viable Build (MVB) that would be just a Stateroom. Correction: life support tonnage depends upon 20% of total tonnage. Since your question only infers a MVB of one stateroom, then the total tonnage = stateroom size + 20% total tonnage.

An absolute Minimum Viable Build would be (Room Size + 20% for life support) / (Persons per Room) . Add more space to install more function.

In WBH, "world" can mean either "planet" or "moon". A "tidally locked" world can be either a planet locked to a star or a moon locked to a parent planet or a planet to its moon. The "Mainworld" determination is either predetermined (in the continuation method) or selected from candidate...

Yes, that would be good where there is skilled personnel available, to pilot the emergency small craft. If you plan for a scenario where you cannot guarantee someone skilled to be available ... - then what?

Yes, I too was talking about space - or, at least the space where planetary gravity exists. While it might not be desirable, I was referring to episodes where the main ship lost control - either deliberately or by accident. Could be that the main m-drive malfunctioned, for example. Or, perhaps...
