    The FFW

    Well, that's no fun if you have decided that the Imperium have won already, without rolling them dice.

    It is written in C Sharp, Microsoft's equivalent to Java. The source file is Program.cs

    Pioneer vs Traveller

    Persuade = Charm Diplomat = Civil Servant (Envoy) in this game. No! Wait! Diplomatic Access is a mustering out benefit in this game!

    Pioneer PDF Current Artwork

    On the topic of artwork, is the girl on page 10 the same woman as on page 110? They look almost identical with same hair and same facial expression, just 15 years difference in appearence.

    Pioneer PDF Current Artwork

    On the whole, I rather like the artwork. It is good enough for me to see artistic impressions of action in outerspace alongside photorealistic detailed pictures of catalogue items. My eye can make a transition from one to the other quite easily and I really appreciate the light-dark contrasts of...

    Ask MongooseMatt ANYTHING!!!

    Fire Control Systems (any TL) each take up 1 slot only. If you have more separate or unlinked weapons, that would require installation of more Fire Control Systems, at the cost of 1 slot each. RHB, pg 60: "Each weapon or set of linked weapons generally requires its own fire control system."

    First Aid, Medical Care, and Augmentations

    Yes and I kind want a justification for it. My own reason that I provide is that Medical Care and Surgery tend to treat the whole person maybe to provide life support or general anesthetic. First Aid tends to be more symptomatic and only treats the local cut/burn/concussion on a more superficial...

    The FFW

    I haven't bought FFW products yet. From what I see I like the change of focus and the scale of themes, from book to book. From focusing on hapless Travellers in Opening Moves to studying the War Fleets of the two main sides in WFOTFFW. I could start with Opening Moves or the ICS Papers. I...

    Traveller 5E

    Good luck to them. If I was living in the States I can see it would be more appealing. I just will have to see if the books make it to UK retail. Besides this month I'm giving support to the re-launch of Tunnels & Trolls ... hell yeah

    Other RPGs That You Use In Your Traveller Games

    I tried with Numenera, Cyberpunk and the Last Parsec and didn't have much success. I mainly had to learn the difference between a rule and a setting narrative, and then I was fine. The only inspiration that I keep in Traveller is using the term "Challenge" instead of "Task", and play it in a...

    Core rulebook armour pictures

    It was suggested on this site to use self-adhesive labels to correct typographical errors. Just set the background to the same shade of grey and print.

    Regarding DD+## Damage

    I'm not sure I know of any weapon that does "xDD+##" damage. Only "xDD" weapons are in the books I've seen. However, CRB says for Destructive Weapons the roll is multiplied by 10, not the total damage. That suggests "xDD+##" = (xD6 x 10) + ## and does NOT equal (xD6 + ##) x 10.

    Vehicle Handbook Update 2026 - Now Here!

    I think the first paragraph should read "Luxury interior space is anything but common" , and scrub the mention of "areas." Then you can have the second line mentioned in a more complementary way, without contradiction.

    World Builders Handbook - is there anything actually useful in it?

    I'm sure I paid £8 for the boxset, circa 1980, at High Street retail prices. Todays books are mostly hardback and are in colour throughout
