    Diving for cover

    When someone dives for cover as a reaction: - they get -2 from everyone attacking them. Is this from them diving, or because they are in cover? Or does it stack for -4 (-2 for the reaction and -2 for the cover). I'm guessing it's just because they're in cover as the rules mention only -1 for...

    Mating Airlocks to Cargo Hatches

    Imtu most cargo loading is done by bots with grav propulsion. They've become so ubiquitous I had to stat them out

    Feeding a High Population, Non-Agricultural world

    Came here to say this. With fusion power you have almost limitless energy and even below TL8 I would simply import one and pay technicians for it's upkeep. With this energy there are many possibilities. Water is usually available, even if it's only as ice on asteroids, or as a waste product...

    State of the Mongoose 2024

    Regarding ownership of traveller IP and TAS on DriveThru, the guidelines still refer to the current Mongoose setting - I am assuming this means that material from, say, GURPS Traveller is still off limits? Is that likely to change in the near future?

    State of the Mongoose 2024

    I agree. I have tried to support my flgs by ordering traveller through them and they use bits and mortar for free pdfs, but it has become apparent that they are struggling to get stock in small amounts, so it is easier for me to order direct through Mongoose, an unfortunate state of affairs!

    Traveller InDesign template

    Hi, I'm just trying to open the InDesign template on DriveThru and I'm getting errors regarding the fonts when I open it (see attached) Is it possible to get this updated, or better still get Microsoft Word/ Publisher instead as these are much cheaper and easier to get hold of. Tbh I'm mainly...

    Cyberpunk and Traveller

    with regards to the dystopian aspect of cyberpunk I think this sums up my take. The Imperium cares much more about trade and security than people, the megacorps must love it.

    Cyberpunk and Traveller

    I'm just reading Cyberpunk Red to get ideas for "street" level adventures, there's a fair amount of overlap tbh

    Medical care vs natural healing

    I'm guessing if surgery doesn't heal at least one characteristic fully, then they'll have to try again

    Medical care vs natural healing

    thanks for all the responses, it's really helped clarify the rules for me

    Medical care vs natural healing

    Hi all, not sure if there's much benefit to medical care tbh. It is restricted to having at least one maxed characteristic and requires a doctor and a sickbay and heals 3+END DM + doctor skill Natural healing has no restrictions, heals 1D (avg is better than 3)+END DM and I can just nap in my...

    Where do worlds with poor atmosphere get their food, water and air?

    Yep, I think I'll just roll with it. Looks like the consensus is a mixture of trade, our science and Traveller science to make the stuff. Strangely, just come across an article talking about using electrolysis on Mars to make oxygen...

    Facial recognition

    I'll just post these links. https://bigbrotherwatch.org.uk/campaigns/ministry-of-truth/ https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2023/09/uk-spy-clause-in-online-safety-bill-must-be-addressed-before-it-becomes-law/...

    Facial recognition

    When I originally posted I was kind of thinking of the Imperium tracking who went where, rather than who got on your starship, but hey, that counts too. So if someone flies from port A to port B, the Imperium will know about it. It already happens IRL...
