Hi, DriveThruRPG has the last update as last May. Will this be forwarded to them so I can download it? Thanks, Marc Grossman

I just got my "Fifth Frontier War" and it is sad.... I am starting my work to integrate data from MgT: 5FW and my data from previous editions(GDW, etc..) The biggest issue I've run into is being stopped dead just inside the cover. They have this "Would be wonderful" graphic of the theater...

Is there any suggested art work? Like, are the pips going to be miniaturized outlines of imperial, Zhodani, Sword worlds, Vargr and/or Darrian warships?

It is certainly worth investigating Of course, the scaling is another question...

Where are you located? My local library doesn't have a 3D Printer. I can look for County resources, but I'm guessing bringing in the STL's for...say, all the parts for the Beowulf....might be somewhat outside reason ;) Not to mention, knowing how to scale it for 15mm, to keep my wife from...

What would I wish for? A relationship with FFE, or Mongoose and those designing STL versions of Traveller ships... So, you don't have to have a 3D printer to get copies of the ships.... Or to buy a 25mm (or 15mm since not everyone has the space) printing of the Beowulf for other craft those...

I think we're talking apples and oranges here, and it may be my fault. I may not have made it clear but I was specifically speaking about recovering, safeguarding and co-opting psions. Once they are identified and safely recovered, "where they end up" is a question of how they accept their...

@Midnightplat No, this is not trusted to the Navy, since many of the Nobility have their proteges and distaff family off "earning the family glory" in the Navy. In the OTU years between Norris being named Arch Duke, Grand Duchess Delphine certainly had agents within the Navy reporting to herself...

Well, Yes, there may be psions on Regina and Terra, but "'known, trained and serving" psions would IMO (and IMTI) be there hunting for threatened psions and getting them out of those systems. In the meantime, those psions (and non-psions) who had been part of the institute would be in danger of...

IMTU, I deal with the Love/Kill relationship my version of the Third Imperium has with Psi talents Oddly enough, In our past two sessions, one character has just undergone "Tolerance training" because she was beginning to suspect a crew member of being a psion. If you want to see how handled...

And a lot of flankers... Because, given my experience in ground combat.....once you start hitting them, they WILL come for you.

Respectfully, In 2E Core Rulebook, on page 74, in the left column under the heading "Armour", the paragraph states: "Armour reduces the damage sustained in an attack by the value of its Armour score. An attack with an Effect of 6 or more always inflicts at least one point of damage, regardless...

Thank you for clarifying that :D

I don't believe that is the case. If it was, why would the rule include the words "at least"? Logic dictates that you use phrases like "at least" when an increase is either possible or expected. In addition, having been in armed combat and wounded myself, Logic dictates that the more...

Where is the chart? I apologize if this has been asked already but... In the Core rules, discussing armor, it says that a character who has been hit with 6+ damage will always take "at least 1 point of damage" What I have not found is a chart stating how that increases So, when a character...
