So far, from my own experience, the game combat rules vary. Spaceship combat has been really exciting, edge-of-the-seat stuff. Simplistic but not too simplistic, with options for evasive and shipboard activities. Excellent. Not sure how it would scale to large fights, perhaps High Guard will...

"Lettuce" would be my bet.

Thanks. I did actually already try the Autorealm thing, but I can't seem to get hold of symbols for airlocks and the like and my art skills are only slightly better than my dog's. And I don't even have a dog.

Cheers What is OTU?

Whats the deal with that? Can I use the Traveller logo? I looked at the developers pack, seems like I need permission from mongoose. Or should I just use a generic format that alludes to certain use of traveller skills and stats. And have any of you fine people used any software you can...

Good OP. Couldn't agree more with everything you have said. Mirrors my feelings exactly.

Its 50x dmg, as Myrm already alluded to. See page 151 , the grey box bottom right.

Well if these are

If you consider adding 2 tables to be "bloating" then who I am to argue... :shock: Let's hope High Guard remedies the situation. Hell, let's pull all the stops out and go for a whole page of tech increment bonuses. It might set the release schedule back by....2 hours.....but I can live with...

The other funny thing about it was,since antimatter fuel needs no tonnage allocated to it, could spare fuel be carried somehow elsewhere on the ship. If so,if you had the money for its initial purchase, you could zip about for years..for decades perhaps

Yeah I came upon this problem too: In the end I figured this: Since Warp drive uses fuel at double rate, then the power plant will need to be refuelled twice as often. So, every 2 weeks. What ya think?

I think it needs 1 table. Thats all. Could be generic bonuses for all weapons beyond base TL, groups by category. 12 lines or so. And another table for components for ships, shrinking them or making them more effective as TL increases. All of which was done before in the old days and was rather...

I think also that the blades mentioned in the book perhaps are considered to be of hi-tech materials, or at least the combat stats seem to be based on that. I think if we are talking about an iron age broadsword, this could not be compared to a TL 14 molecule-edged--wotsit-sword, and...

Surely swimming would be hugely affected by the gravity, chemical make-up of the water, atmospherics and other factors, to the point that swimming on one world would be quite different to that on others. In fact, might it not need such different techniques that only some basic part of your...

Lovely job and proof I am more senile than you.
